If you’re an experienced construction manager with dreams of building a future for yourself and your loved ones, then Canada may just be the ideal place to relocate to. Canada’s construction industry is one of its major contributors to the overall economy, with a GDP of $138,465 million in June 2019 and employing over 1.2 million people.

There are many ways to immigrate to Canada as a construction manager, but perhaps the easiest and most popular option is the Express Entry system.

What is the Express Entry System?

 

The Express Entry system was implemented in 2015 to facilitate the immigration process and fast-track all visa applications to be processed in as little as 6 months.

Applicants are required to create an online profile and are ranked according to factors such as their age, work experience and qualifications via the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). Applicants are required to score a minimum of 67 out of 100 CRS points in order to be deemed eligible to take the Express Entry path to permanent residency in Canada.

In the latest draw held on September 18, 3,600 skilled workers joined the 63,400 Express Entry candidates who have already received Invitations to Apply for permanent residence.

Although the process has been made more accessible to skilled foreign workers, the application process is still very complex, but with our knowledgeable immigration experts to guide you through, you’ll be on your way to Canada in no time.

Requirements

In order to qualify to migrate to Canada as a construction manager you will be required to have the following:

• A university degree in civil engineering or a college diploma in construction technology is usually required;
• A master’s degree in project management may be required;
• Several years of experience in the construction industry, including experience as a construction supervisor or field superintendent, are usually required;
• Extensive experience in the construction industry may substitute for post-secondary education requirements;
• Professional engineering status or construction trade certification may be required by some employers.
