VINCI Construction Grands Projets Canada, a subsidiary of VINCI Construction Grands Projets, part of the VINCI Group, construction worldwide leader, specialized in the design and construction of major civil engineering and building works in Canada is hiring a

Temporary Works Engineer

What is the project?:

The Pickering Nuclear Generating Station refurbishment program involves designing and building a new deep-water intake in Lake Ontario to improve the plant's cooling system.

What you will do:

As Temporary Works Enginner, you will support the Temporary Works Coordinator (TWC) in the planning, coordination, and control of all temporary works throughout the project lifecycle.

Temporary Works Design Coordination

• Coordinate with third-party designers, ensuring temporary works designs are delivered on time, comply with project procedures, and align with constructability requirements.
• Review, check, and technically challenge external designs to ensure: Assumptions are correct and validated. Load paths, capacities, materials, and construction sequences are appropriate.Designs are practical, safe, and suitable for the planned works.
• Ensure design risks, limitations, and constraints are clearly identified, communicated, and understood by the construction team.
• Assist the TWC in ensuring appropriate Temporary Works Categories and levels of design check are assigned.

Technical Assurance & Design Validation

• Verify that temporary works designs meet applicable standards (e.g., BS 5975 principles, project specifications, provincial requirements, and relevant structural codes).
• Confirm that design deliverables include all required documents, such as calculations, drawings, design risk assessments, installation requirements, and inspection instructions.
• Engage with designers to resolve discrepancies, clarify design intent, and support value-engineering where appropriate.

Construction Support, Inspection & Site Integration

• Collaborate closely with the Temporary Works Inspector(s) and the construction team to ensure temporary works are:
• Built exactly as per approved design;
• Understood in terms of limitations, tolerances, sequencing, and inspection requirements.
• Conduct technical briefings for supervisors, forepersons, and inspectors to ensure safe and correct implementation of temporary works.
• Review site conditions to ensure they remain consistent with design assumptions (e.g., ground conditions, loadings, access constraints).

Risk, Safety, and Procedure Compliance

• Support the application of the Temporary Works Procedure and ensure adherence to internal controls and regulatory requirements.
• Contribute to risk assessments, method statements, and temporary works briefing documents.
• Immediately escalate unsafe conditions, incorrect installations, or deviations from design to the TWC and site management.- Degree in Civil / Structural engineering and/or Mechanical Engineering
• At least 6 years experience in the civil construction industry with large infrastructure projects and significant exposure to Temporary Works
• Possesses of a formal health and safety qualification (e.g. NCSO, IOSH or CRST or CRSP or a Construction Certificate)
  Formal TW Co-ordination training.
• Strong interpersonal skills
• Ability to planning and take pragmatic approaches to problem resolution
• A good listener and agile communicator with a practical view of safety and an understanding of others needs/requirements
