What you’ll be responsible for each day:

Do you want to play a key role in the financial success of large-scale industrial capital programs valued at $1 billion or more? We are looking for a hands-on cost control leader to establish, implement, manage, and govern cost control processes for major EPC, EPCM, and owner-managed programs.

You will serve as the program cost management subject matter expert throughout the full project lifecycle, from business case development and Front-End Loading (FEL) through engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, start-up, and closeout. As a strategic partner to leadership, you will turn complex cost and project controls data into clear, actionable insights that strengthen capital stewardship and executive decision-making.

Cost control leadership

Develop and maintain comprehensive project and program cost control systems.
Establish cost control standards, methodologies, governance frameworks, and reporting procedures.
Lead weekly and monthly cost reviews and independently challenge forecasts and assumptions.
Ensure alignment among approved budgets, forecasts, commitments, expenditures, and business objectives.

Budgeting, forecasting, and financial performance

Support Class 5 through Class 1 estimates and establish approved control budgets.

Develop Cost Breakdown Structures (CBS) aligned with Work Breakdown Structures (WBS).

Prepare and maintain Estimate at Completion (EAC), Estimate to Complete (ETC), cost curves, burn-rate analyses, and financial performance indicators.

Monitor cost trends, identify potential overruns early, and support financial decision-making.

Commitments, expenditures, and cash flow

Monitor contracts, purchase orders, commitments, invoices, accruals, expenditures, and change orders.

Develop cash flow forecasts, funding curves, spending profiles, and capital expenditure forecasts.

Coordinate with Procurement, Finance, Treasury, and Project Management teams.

Validate contractor and supplier claims against approved budgets and commitments.

Earned value, change, and risk management

Establish and maintain Earned Value Management reporting, including PV, EV, AC, CPI, and SPI.

Integrate cost and schedule performance and support corrective action and recovery planning.

Administer change control processes and quantify cost impacts related to scope, risks, and opportunities.

Monitor contingency utilization and develop probabilistic forecasts where appropriate.

Executive reporting and contractor oversight

Prepare executive-level cost reports, dashboards, forecasts, and investment governance packages.

Present financial performance, risks, opportunities, and recommendations to senior stakeholders and governance committees.

Review and challenge EPC and contractor cost reports, forecasts, claims, variations, and productivity assumptions.

Support contract administration, commercial reviews, and claims evaluations.

The individual who will own this role:

Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Quantity Surveying, Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, Economics, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical discipline. An equivalent combination of education and experience may be considered.

Minimum 15 years of project cost control experience, including at least 10 years supporting large industrial EPC/EPCM projects.

Demonstrated experience with capital projects valued from $500 million to more than $5 billion and with mega-project delivery from development through closeout.

Deep expertise in project controls, budgeting, forecasting, cost management, cash flow, change control, contingency management, and financial reporting.

Experience in oil and gas, petrochemicals, chemicals, mining and metals, power generation, energy, infrastructure, heavy industrial manufacturing, food and beverage, CPG, or dairy processing.

Advanced proficiency with Excel financial models, cost analytics, dashboards, PowerPoint executive presentations, SAP, and financial reporting systems.

CCP, PMP, EVP, CMAA, or AACE International certification is considered an asset.

Strong commercial and financial acumen, stakeholder influence, analytical rigor, executive communication, and the ability to thrive in a complex matrixed organization.

*An environment that values engagement and encourages everyone to take initiative.*
