The right fit – it’s got to be mutual

We recognize that making a career move is a significant personal decision and, from our perspective, building a team of like-minded individuals is an important element to our success.

KCB Fredericton is looking for someone interested in being part of our existing team whose focus is: collaboration within multi-disciplinary project teams for the delivery of construction projects; development and mentorship of each other in construction management and quality assurance; delivery of high-quality geotechnical services; and building and sustaining excellent client relationships.

If you have between five and ten years’ experience in geotechnical engineering and want to be part of a highly motivated group that works with clients to achieve their objectives, while leaving a positive impact on the environment and local communities then KCB is what you are looking for. We are particularly interested in candidates with experience in: slope stability and seepage analysis; dam design; earthworks and construction; site investigation; laboratory testing of soils and rock; and quantity estimation.

The right candidate will show flexibility and be energized by the prospect of working on sites throughout Canada. Registration as a Professional Engineer, or eligibility to register, is a prerequisite.
