Lauren Services

Our Vice President of Business Operations, Fletcher Evans is not one to turn down a challenge (or an opportunity). He talked with us about Lauren's growth and diversification strategy, and our focus on building an organization that people want to be a part of. #ThatsAGoodQuestion

Whether it’s our customers, partners, or the people we hire, we recognize that our success depends directly on the relationships we create and nurture. The Lauren Foundations are our guideposts for all of our interactions, so we can build meaningful, collaborative, and long-term partnerships and deliver what we say we will, every time.

Good luck with your studies this year Kia Massah We’re thrilled to have you staying on part-time.

After another amazing summer, our interns are heading back to school next week. We welcomed four students from The University of British Columbia, UBC Okanagan, University of Alberta and University of Calgary to our Calgary office where they gained practical experience and skills to bring back with them to school. We’re fortunate enough to have three students staying on with us this fall in part-time positions, allowing them to focus on their learning at school (our top priority) and contribute to our team in the office.    When asked about his experience at Lauren, here’s what intern Ali Danesh had to say: “Everybody on the team is extremely helpful and supportive. Questions are received with enthusiastic answers, and the level of mindfulness is astounding. The most common response I have gotten from my colleagues finding out that I am working part time at Lauren this fall has been to “Make sure school is a priority.” I think this is the best example of how the work culture in Lauren fosters a family-like atmosphere rather than a mere workplace.”   Thank you to our interns for all of your hard work, and best of luck in the coming school year!

Sometimes our morning commute involves a helicopter. We partnered with Pacific Northern Gas Ltd. to work on the remediation of the Salvus To Galloway (S2g) Pipeline to ensure Prince Rupert, BC maintained access to a crucial supply of natural gas. A helicopter or jet boat were often needed to gain site access, which was limited by weather, geohazards and permit restrictions throughout the project. We are exceptionally proud of the team that worked diligently on this project for six years, helping us identify the opportunities and challenges in the planning phases and continuing to adapt as the project progressed.
