Civil Engineering Design Assistant (Coop Student)

at  Binnie

You’re a civil engineering student who’s ready to get your hands on a real engineering project. You perform best in groups where you know what’s expected of you. You’re not afraid to ask questions. You make—and own—your decisions. You want to learn more about the design process, and how a team works together to get projects done.
Binnie is looking for an Engineering Assistant (COOP Student) to join our Northern Division full-time in our Prince George office. Prince George is known as the “Northern Capital” of BC and is the largest city in the north with a growing economy and population in need of strong engineering infrastructure work.
Our Northern Division specializes in highway design, project management and engineering infrastructure solutions throughout Northern BC.
This position is in our Prince George office for the Sep to Dec 2024 work-term. There may be an opportunity to extend the work term to April 2025 depending on project requirements.
You will work closely with our talented and diverse team of experienced Engineers and Project Managers at varied experience levels. This dynamic and challenging role offers excellent mentorship opportunities.

ABOUT BINNIE:

As an employee-owned firm and one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers, we take pride in our work and are respected as one of the top engineering firms in British Columbia. We support some of the most important infrastructure in the province and beyond.
