landing your dream
job is as easy as
1 - 2 - e3!
OsPe and Transport
Canada partner to bring
you three engineering
employment events (e3s)
this september
At OSPE, we understand just how difficult it can be to navigate the engineering job
market. Whether you're a new graduate or an experienced professional, OSPE strives
to help you land your dream job by connecting you with hiring employers in your
field. This year, OSPE has partnered with Transport Canada to bring you three fall
Engineering Employment Events (E3s), hosted on September 11th in Montreal,
September 23rd in Ottawa, and September 30th in Mississauga.
These E3s will give you the opportunity to network with and be interviewed by
experienced professionals from the public sector. This could be your first step to
landing a career with the Government of Canada.
Unsure if working at Transport Canada is right for you? OSPE recently spoke with
Martin McKay P.Eng., from the infrastructure department and Ryan Klomp from
the vehicles department to give you a better idea of the exciting work taking place at
Transport Canada and opportunities for you to get involved.
what is your position at Transport Canada?
Martin: I am the Director of the Transportation Infrastructure Projects, and I've been
at Transport Canada for 13 years. I am responsible for managing the two-billiondollar National Trade Corridors Fund. I also oversee a team of engineers and policy
analysts who deliver federal funding for transportation infrastructure.
Ryan: I am the Director of the Environmental and Transportation Programs, and
I've been at Transport Canada for about 10 years. I manage a suite of programs
focused on advanced vehicle technologies, including connected and automated
vehicles, alternative fuels, light-weight materials and aerodynamics. I also oversee a
number of grant contribution programs aimed at improving the safety, security and
environmental performance of Canada's transportation system.
what opportunities are available for engineers and how can they benefit from
employment with Transport Canada?
Martin: Transport Canada offers competitive salaries, broad exposure to key Canadian
infrastructure programs and a nationwide perspective on engineering challenges in
transportation. The other great thing, especially in comparison to the private sector,
is the work-life balance. We get to go home and really enjoy our weekends. There
is also plenty of room for mobility - an engineer interested in pursuing a career in
the public sector can work towards becoming part of an executive group within the
Government of Canada.
