[ BY BRIAN SALGADO ] “We’re also focused on taking advantage of our international resources.” // KEN MURRAY, VICE PRESIDENT AND REGIONAL MANAGER Jacobs Engineering Group has vast expertise throughout the world that it brings back to its Canadian operations.. Countless engineering firms claim to have expertise and resources to operate in the competitive oil sands market of Alberta. However, Jacobs Canada has the advantage of a global network in Jacobs Engineering Group that it can access to better support clients operating throughout Alberta. “In Alberta, it is a very cyclical business, and when demand comes, it is in big waves,” says Ken Murray, vice president and regional manager of business development for Jacobs Canada’s western region. “What we’re trying to do is use our global resources to help deal with that demand. “We spread our expertise outside of Canada, taking the resource base already on hand around the world,” Murray continues. “We’re also focused on taking advantage of our international resources. Clients don’t like the boom-and-bust cycle, and we don’t like it.” Jacobs launched its Canadian operations more than a decade ago.
