About Pontil Drilling
Pontil Drilling is a geotechnical drilling company based in Mount Albert, Ontario. Our purpose is simple: to build and maintain relationships with our clients, our crews, and the communities we work in. We operate on the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), which means everyone on our team works in the right seat, owns their results, and helps drive the company forward.
We are growing. We have the work, the rigs, and the ambition to become the most respected geotechnical drilling company in the country. Now we need the more of the right people in the right seats to help get us there.
The Seat
We have an open seat on our Project Management team for a Project Coordinator. This seat is accountable for managing the day-to-day delivery of Pontil's large infrastructure programs. You are the bridge between our clients, our field crews, our scheduler, and our sub-contractors.
This is not a role for someone who waits to be told what to do. The right person for this seat thrives under pressure, owns their work without excuses, and finds a way to get the job done; including nights and weekends when project deliverables demand it.

§ Managing day-to-day delivery of large infrastructure drilling programs - scope, schedule, budget, and client expectations
§ Serving as the primary point of contact for clients on active programs - professional, proactive, and solutions-oriented always

§ Managing sub-contractors - scoping, directing, and holding them accountable to Pontil's quality and safety standards
