Building certainty through disciplined delivery
Without our people, we simply couldn’t deliver projects the way we do.
Martin Clutterbuck has built his career in environments where complex challenges demand practical thinking, strong teamwork and disciplined execution. As a Vice President for Worley Canada Construction, based in Edmonton, Alberta, he leads teams delivering major construction, EPC and EPFC projects across Western Canada, particularly in Saskatchewan’s mining sector.
Since joining us in 2016, Martin’s career has been shaped by global experience and hands‑on leadership. Time spent working in the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia, reinforced his belief in learning through experience and staying close to delivery.
Steadfast resolve for confidence in delivery
But Martin wasn’t always an expert in construction. Those skills were built over time, shaped by experiences beyond the industry. For six years, Martin served in the British military as part of the Royal Engineers throughout the Cold War. An experience that informs his disciplined approach to his job.
It’s that discipline that drives his belief that successful outcomes are shaped long before work reaches site. By creating a clear plan from the start, integrating engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction, teams can influence design and delivery to reduce risk and improve outcomes.
“When construction is involved early and we have a clear plan, we can drive better results for our customers. It supports schedule, cost and continuity across the project,” he says.
Problem solving in action
Construction rarely goes exactly to plan, and Martin sees these moments as opportunities for people to step forward. Teams across Canada Construction are trusted to apply their experience and judgement to solve problems quickly and keep delivery on track.
“We’ve got really good people who can step in, solve problems and make changes quickly when something isn’t working,” Martin says.
Strong planning, regular risk reviews and close collaboration help actively manage risk throughout execution.
Investing in people and communities
Beyond project delivery, Martin’s proud of how teams contribute to the communities where they work. In Saskatchewan, partnerships with local and Indigenous groups have created opportunities for training, employment and long‑term collaboration.
“Working closely with Indigenous partners has really opened people’s eyes,” he says. “It’s helped our teams better understand the communities we work in and how we can genuinely support them.”
Asked what sets the business apart, Martin points first to its people. Particularly how Canada Construction operates within a close‑knit culture built on trust, respect and open conversation.
“My door is always open if someone wants to come to talk to me. And that's the same with all of our management team here. People know they’re being listened to, and that makes a real difference.”
Safety and wellbeing underpin everything the teams do, with a growing focus on mental health alongside physical safety.
Valuing what’s built, and who builds it
Looking across yards, sites and offices, Martin truly values the collaboration that makes delivery possible. From trades and supervisors to project teams and support functions, everyone plays a role in achieving outcomes that no single group could deliver alone.
For Martin, that shared commitment to combining experience, ingenuity and care for one another is what continues to set our construction teams apart.
“All of our people support one another and understand what’s needed to execute projects successfully,” he says. “Without that collaboration, we simply wouldn’t be able to do what we do.”
