LANDON DOUGLAS
Special Projects Manager at PCL Construction
LANDON DOUGLAS leads PCL Construction’s Special Projects
Division in British Columbia, overseeing a 60-person multidisciplinary team that delivers over $150 million annually. Over a
12-year career with PCL, Landon has progressed from a co-op
student to a senior executive, accumulating versatile experience
across special projects, major builds, civil infrastructure, and
clean energy. Holding a Bachelor of Engineering in Environmental Systems from the University of Regina, he brings deep expertise in collaborative delivery models—including Construction
Management, EPC, Design-Build, and Progressive Design-Build—
across the commercial, education, aviation, civil, and renewable
sectors.
Earlier in his career, Landon served as Project Manager for
the landmark $540 million Stantec Tower in Edmonton, leading
the construction of Western Canada’s tallest building. Under his
management, the project overcame complex design and engineering
constraints—including executing a massive, intricate transfer slab
pour—to achieve LEED® Gold certi昀椀cation and earn a 2020 ENR
Global Best Projects Award for Retail/Mixed-Use.
From 2021 to 2024, Landon directed PCL’s strategic entry
and operational expansion into the Australian renewable energy
sector. Establishing a new regional o昀케ce of over 50 sta昀昀 during
the COVID-19 pandemic, he oversaw a portfolio generating
approximately $400 million in annual solar volume, including
the $443 million Stubbo Solar Farm. Beyond project execution,
Landon developed and implemented structured leadership training programs to equip local emerging leaders, while pioneering
sustainable 昀椀eld practices—such as an industry-recognized initiative that repurposed recycled plastic waste into durable cable
covers for trenching.
In late 2024, Landon was promoted to lead PCL’s Special Projects Division in BC, where he has since doubled annual project
volume, expanded the region’s market portfolio, and strengthened key client relationships. A champion of practical digital
innovation, he introduced and piloted the HammerTech safety
platform within PCL, modernizing 昀椀eld-level safety tracking and
driving measurable operational improvements that led to broader
company adoption.
Landon is equally dedicated to developing people and giving
back to the construction community. He actively invests in
mentorship, sponsorship, and professional development programs
to build high-performing teams grounded in accountability. He
maintains an active leadership presence across key industry
associations, including the Vancouver Regional Construction
Association (VRCA), BC Construction Roundtable (BCCR), Urban
Development Institute (UDI), Independent Contractors and
Businesses Association (ICBA), Canadian Healthcare Engineering
Society (CHES), BC Aviation Council (BCAC), and the Vancouver
Board of Trade. Additionally, Landon supports community-focused causes such as Canstruction and the MS Bike Ride, combining technical expertise, global market vision, and a people-昀椀rst
approach to advance Canada’s construction sector.
