About Stantec

Communities are fundamental. Whether around the corner or across the globe, they provide a foundation, a sense of place and of belonging. That's why at Stantec, we always design with community in mind.

 We care about the communities we serve—because they're our communities too. This allows us to assess what's needed and connect our expertise, to appreciate nuances and envision what's never been considered, to bring together diverse perspectives so we can collaborate toward a shared success.

At Stantec, we pride ourselves on our commitment to building communities. As an extension of that commitment, we believe that our nation is our community—and Veterans and their families are an important part of that community. We are committed to welcoming members of the Veteran’s and military communities into our workforce, and we are dedicated to growing our work for defense communities in Canada, the US, and abroad.

We're designers, engineers, scientists, and project managers, innovating together at the intersection of community, creativity, and client relationships. Balancing these priorities results in projects that advance the quality of life in communities across the globe.

We believe in the long-term success of military-connected individuals, and we hope you will join us in your next career move.
