Want to be part of a diverse team where your work makes a real impact? If you’re inspired by innovation that advances how people connect and transforms what’s possible, you belong on #TeamBell.\nOn the Bell Business Markets team, you’ll be a vital part of making innovation happen for enterprise-scale customers. You’ll deliver advanced solutions in areas such as IoT, Mobility/5G, Cloud, Cyber Security, Voice, Collaboration & Contact Centre and Internet & Private Networks.\nAt Bell, your skills and expertise will help set us apart as we continue to be the leading provider of digital connections and next generation services to businesses and governments.\nSummary\nBell’s AI Fabric initiative is pioneering a secure, sovereign AI compute network across Canada. This ambitious portfolio features seven large-scale, high-density data centers, anchored by a 500 MW British Columbia supercluster and a 300 MW flagship site in Regina, Saskatchewan.\nAs Cx Commissioning Director, you will own the commissioning program at the portfolio level-defining the Cx methodology, standards, and governance that every site executes against to ensure each facility is validated, resilient, and operational-ready. Rather than commissioning a single building, you'll establish the repeatable, fleet-wide framework (FAT, SAT, integrated systems testing, Levels 1-5) that guarantees consistent, mission-critical quality across all builds as the program scales.\nKey Responsibilities\nOwn the enterprise commissioning (Cx) program strategy across the national data centre portfolio, establishing standardized methodology, standards, and playbooks. \nDefine fleet-wide commissioning frameworks-FAT, SAT, integrated systems testing (IST), and Levels 1-5-to ensure consistent, repeatable, handover-ready outcomes. \nProvide program-level oversight and technical governance to site-level MEP/Cx leaders and commissioning agents, ensuring alignment to standards and lessons learned. \nEstablish and manage the commissioning agent (CxA) vendor strategy at the portfolio level, standardizing scopes, quality expectations, and master agreements. \nOwn Cx program-level scheduling, resourcing, and reporting, providing roll-up visibility across concurrent site commissioning efforts to Capital Programs leadership. \nDefine quality assurance and validation standards for power, cooling, and resiliency/redundancy systems to mission-critical performance thresholds. \nDrive program-level Cx risk management, change governance, and interdependency management across sites, escalating systemic issues proactively. \nEstablish operational readiness and turnover standards, ensuring seamless, consistent handover from construction to operations across the fleet. \nPartner cross-functionally with engineering, site construction, program controls, and operations to integrate commissioning into the broader program lifecycle. \nBuild, mentor, and scale the commissioning program function as the national program grows \nCritical Qualifications\n15+ years of commissioning leadership on large-scale capital programs, with direct experience across multiple hyperscale or mission-critical data centres (100MW+ / multi-site portfolios preferred). \nProven track record establishing commissioning standards, methodologies, and governance at a program or portfolio level-not just single-site execution. \nDeep expertise across the full commissioning lifecycle (FAT, SAT, IST, Levels 1-5) and operational readiness/turnover. \nStrong technical understanding of data centre M&E systems-power, cooling (including high-density/liquid cooling), redundancy, and resiliency. \nExperience defining and managing commissioning agent (CxA) vendor strategies and standardized scopes across a fleet. \nStrong command of program-level scheduling, resourcing, and reporting (e.g., Primavera P6) across concurrent efforts. \nDemonstrated ability to build and mature a commissioning program function from a formative stage. \nExceptional stakeholder management and executive presence, able to influence and challenge senior engineering, construction, and executive leaders. \nDegree in Mechanical, Electrical, or related Engineering discipline; P.Eng., PMP/PgMP, and commissioning certification (e.g., ACG/CxA, BCxP) strongly preferred. \nWillingness to travel nationally between build locations and fabrication facilities as the portfolio scales. \nAdequate knowledge of French is required for positions in Quebec.\nAdditional Information:\nPosition Type: Management\nJob Status: Regular - Full Time\nJob Location: Canada : Alberta : Calgary\nWork Arrangement: Hybrid\nApplication Deadline: 11/20/2026\nFor work arrangements that are ‘Hybrid’, successful candidates must be based in Canada and report to a set Bell office for a minimum of 3 days a week.
