Project Manager, Urban Water Decarbonization

CWN is seeking a Project Manager with expertise in urban water services to lead a national initiative focused on reducing greenhouse gases (GHGs) in municipal water services. This role goes beyond project management; it involves being an integral part of the CWN team. You will finalize the roadmap for GHG mitigation actions, engage with water leaders from Canada’s largest utilities, and facilitate communities of practice among water professionals to share knowledge and collaborate on reducing GHGs. Additionally, you will expand CWN’s network in the water-energy space by connecting with clean technology companies, private sector organizations, water associations, researchers, energy utilities, regulatory bodies, and academia.

This position offers a unique opportunity to drive impactful change in urban water services and contribute to Canada’s GHG reduction goals while being a key member of the CWN team.
