Many of the world’s top engineers and scientists come together in our Water business because they view a community’s interaction with water a bit differently—as a single holistic system, rather than unconnected networks divided by jurisdictional boundaries. Working throughout the hydrologic cycle, we are delivering sustainable solutions to make sure water is where it should be and available when needed. Our experts guide our work with scientific rigor, an innovative spirit, and a vision for growth. Every day, we help communities improve, reuse, and protect this precious resource for future generations. Grow with us, H2O+U.
Your Opportunity
Our Water sector brings together many of the world’s top engineer’s scientists and planners who see water a bit differently. Our teams view each project they undertake as an integral component of a holistic system. We use this approach to provide our clients with comprehensive solutions that address the challenges, and sometimes differing priorities, that come with this valuable resource. Whether a project’s objective is to: control and use water; improve its quality and habitat potential; or, protect our communities from its natural variability; our teams take a multi-disciplinary approach that integrates and optimizes every facet of design for the natural system. We’re helping communities increase their resiliency during flood conditions and protecting the water resources of our environment for future generations to enjoy. Stantec is supporting a hybrid work arrangement allowing staff to balance working from home and the office.
