Project Manager

The Construction industry is not just changing – it has changed.

The STAINTON GROUP was founded by a notable construction executive, who spent almost a quarter of a century with Canada’s largest and most admired General Contractor, where he learned that the business of construction is more than just about time and materials. It is about the people, practices, and ‘beliefs’, and not simply accepting the standards, nor the stereotypes of one of the world’s most established industries.

At SG Constructors our business model is built upon updated – and frankly overdue – professional management ‘traditions’ that recognize that the front line equals the bottom line – for all stakeholders and in both the short and long-term. This is not just about the people that we hire and selectively partner with, but in the way that they each understand how their important contributions matter each day. This is our culture, our approach, and our methodology.

At SG Constructors, we are growing very quickly, and looking to hire proven, high rise residential and commercial construction PROJECT MANAGER that have notable tier 1 General Contractor experience, and are genuinely passionate about the business of construction itself.
