   JOB SUMMARY

  The Project Manager must understand program objectives as directed by his/her immediate supervisor or designate and execute these objectives in a safe and cost efficient manner. This position provides technical and orientation assistance to all field personnel. He/She works as a coach and mentor to support the development of our field crew and the general safety practices as outlined in the Polaris Corporate Manual, and as required by federal and provincial regulations. 

  The Project Manager is expected to identify and bring forward issues that may affect the health & safety of employee-partners, contractors and/or the community in which we operate. The Project Manager is a person who instructs, directs, and stewards workers in the performance of their duties. 

  Most decisions are consultative in nature, working with Operations Leadership and the HSE team in order to ensure safety policies and procedures are being followed. Technical decisions are more autocratic as it originates from existing regulation and relevant interpretations; however, the attempt is to do most development work through a team/consensus building approach. Impact of incorrect decisions may place workers at risk, affect the system integrity and/or increase cost.

  This position will work on a consultative and at times an authoritative basis with other field management and employees to resolve identified operational and health & safety issues.
