Job Description

Position Overview

The E&I Coordinator is responsible for planning, coordinating, and overseeing all electrical and instrumentation construction activities to ensure safe, compliant, and efficient execution. This role acts as the technical and field-execution interface between engineering, procurement, construction contractors, quality, and commissioning teams. The Coordinator ensures that all E&I work is delivered according to project specifications, codes (CEC/CSA), company standards, and schedule requirements.

Key Responsibilities

1. Field Coordination & Construction Management

Coordinate daily E&I construction activities with contractors to ensure alignment with project schedules and work-front availability. Interpret IFC drawings, electrical one-lines, cable schedules, loop drawings, P&IDs, and installation details for field crews. Verify field installation against design requirements and flag discrepancies, RFIs, and potential scope gaps. Coordinate materials, tools, equipment, and access so crews can maintain productivity. Support readiness for critical path activities such as energization, loop checks, FAT/SAT, and subsystem turnover.

2. Quality Assurance & Compliance

Ensure installations comply with Alberta Electrical Code, CEC, CSA, ATEX/IECEx, and project specifications. Perform field inspections including: Cable tray installation & grounding Conduit, junction box, and cable terminations Instrumentation tubing, impulse lines, and heat trace MCC, transformer, panel, and skid connections Work closely with the Quality team to resolve NCRs, punch items, rework, and documentation gaps. Ensure that all E&I work is executed with proper permits (CWP, FLHA, LOTO, hot work, confined space, etc.).

3. Interface Management

Coordinate interfaces between: Electrical & mechanical completions Instrumentation & controls/automation Construction & commissioning Vendor reps (VFDs, analyzers, instrumentation packages, skids) Ensure commissioning teams receive complete, ready-for-turnover systems (L1-L4 completions).

4. Documentation & Progress Tracking

Maintain redline markups and ensure accurate as-built updates. Track E&I progress using installation quantities (meters of cable, terminations, loops, panels, devices). Prepare daily/weekly reports on manpower, progress, issues, and constraints. Assist with turnover documentation: Test sheets Cable megger reports Loop check sheets Instrument calibration certificates Pre-energization checklists

5. Safety Leadership

Lead by example in enforcing project safety requirements and participating in daily toolbox talks and field inspections. Support safe execution of electrical energization activities (LOTO, arc-flash protection, isolation plans). Report safety observations and ensure corrective actions are followed.

6. Change Management & Problem Resolution

Identify scope changes and assist Project Controls in preparing change requests. Provide technical guidance to resolve field issues quickly. Coordinate with Engineering for timely responses on RFIs, technical deviations, and design clarifications.

Required Qualifications

Education & Certifications

Journeyman Electrician or Instrumentation Technician, or equivalent technical diploma/degree. Preferably AIT/Journeyman certified in Alberta. Valid safety tickets (CSO, Ground Disturbance, WHMIS, First Aid, etc.). Understanding of LOTO, arc-flash categories, and electrical safety.

Experience

5-10 years of E&I construction experience in oil & gas, SAGD, heavy industrial, or energy sector projects. Experience with well-pads, CPF brownfield tie-ins, OSBL infrastructure, or modular construction preferred. Familiarity with construction management in EPC/EPCM environments.

Core Competencies

Strong knowledge of electrical and instrumentation codes and standards. Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and technical documents. Excellent communication and coordination skills. Strong problem-solving abilities in field environments. Ability to work under tight schedules and manage multiple priorities. High attention to detail, especially for quality and turnover packages.

Reporting Structure

Typically reports to:

Construction Superintendent (E&I) or Construction Manager

Works closely with Mechanical, Civil, QA/QC, Commissioning, and Safety teams.
