Stantec
Business Center Practice Leader (BCPL)
Stantec, Minneapolis, MN
Business Center Practice Leader (BCPL) - ( 240001MF )
Description
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. By 2025 we're hiring 2,000 people (like you) to join our team. Grow with us, H2O+U.
Your Opportunity
Stantec is at the forefront of the water industry, delivering thousands of projects for hundreds of communities globally. Our purpose is to conceive and develop the most impactful water projects that improve the health, quality of life and sustainability of the communities we live in and serve. From droughts to floods to sanitation systems, Stantec's Water team designs fit for purpose solutions to all facets of the water infrastructure life cycle. We provide services related to water resources, reservoirs and dams, water supply, wastewater networks and treatment, flood mitigation and river basin management.
Does working with clients on great projects, with a talented team of professionals while driving top line appeal to you? We are looking for a talented Business Center Practice Leader (BCPL) in the Minneapolis area who wants to be part of a purpose-driven organization that is focused on helping our clients, colleagues and communities thrive. This leadership position will be an integral part of our North Central Water leadership team supporting a 200-person team and represents a $50 million-dollar business. Our people are Stantec's most valuable resource, and in joining our team you will be able to leverage your strategic planning focus, industry and market knowledge and client and partner relationships to pursue and win work that transforms our communities and inspires our people, within a culture that values inclusion, celebrates shared success, and embraces ambition.
Reporting to the Regional Growth Leader (RGL), the BCPL is the "seller/doer" responsible for leading the pursuit and delivery of excellent work to our clients. Accountable for the top line, the BCPL leads the growth of the Business and Stantec's market position by leveraging their technical skills, industry and market knowledge, and client and partner relationships to purse and win work that transforms our business and inspires our people. BCPLs work closely with account managers, business developers, Sector Leaders (SLs) and project managers to identify and manage our key accounts, pursue opportunities, and solicit feedback from clients on our performance.
