BQE Water Inc. is an award-winning provider of innovative water treatment solutions and engineering design services to international mining clients, committed to environmental stewardship, recovering value from waste, and enabling socially responsible operations where water is treated as a shared natural resource. We are seeking a Project Engineering Manager (Wastewater Treatment) to lead the project management function across our engineering portfolio.

A strong background in engineering (including P.Eng.), mining, or water treatment projects is highly valued. This role will work in close collaboration with Process Engineering Managers—who hold primary technical authority over engineering design and process application—to ensure robust integration of project management discipline within complex, multidisciplinary project execution.
