Business Development Specialist (Intermediate)

A Joint Opportunity with Canacre Ltd. and Phasor Engineering Inc.

About Us

Canacre Ltd. provides integrated land, right-of-way, environmental, permitting, routing, and stakeholder engagement services across the full project lifecycle, from early development through construction and into operations. Our sole focus on land and environment ensures depth of expertise, accountability, and delivery rigor without distraction from ancillary engineering or design disciplines. Operating with a construction-first mindset, Canacre ensures that land access strategies, regulatory approvals, and environmental commitments are practical, executable, and aligned with how projects are actually built, energized, and maintained.

Phasor Engineering Inc. is a recognized leader in high voltage substation engineering, design, and automation across North America. Headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Phasor delivers comprehensive engineering services from concept development through commissioning, with deep expertise in transmission and distribution line design, substations, renewable energy systems (solar, wind, BESS), foundations design, and geomatics.

Together, as Quanta Services companies, Canacre and Phasor offer clients a truly integrated suite of infrastructure project services — from land and environmental planning to precision electrical engineering. This joint Business Development Specialist role supports growth across both organizations by leveraging the combined strength of our service offerings.
