“I had seen how my friends in larger companies in the industry were treated as just another cog in the machine, but within CPM I have a real sense of belonging and feel valued for my contributions.
Over my 8 years with the company, I have had an opportunity to work on a diverse range of roles and projects (from small rural bridge replacements to multi–billion dollar major infrastructure projects). I work with people with many years’ experience, who are willing and ready to share their experiences, advice and knowledge with me.”

Hear From Our Team
“CPM still feels like a tight knit group and everyone is very approachable and there’s always great cross-pollination and conversation from all walks of the business.”
“What I like about CPM is they definitely support me with professional growth. So I joined the leadership program last year, that was amazing. A lot of the ideas I can apply on what I do day-to-day. And I’ve joined the mentoring program twice. That gives me a lot of thoughts on how I can approach tasks differently.”
