Gatineau, March 18, 2026 \u2014 BBL Construction announces the appointment of Benoit Chr\u00e9tien as Vice President, Multi-Residential Sector. This internal promotion marks a new stage in the evolution of the company\u2019s multi-residential sector, whose demand and scale have grown significantly over the past three years.<\/p>\n
Reporting directly to President Sylvain Bertrand, Benoit officially assumes his role today with a clear mandate: to expand the sector with the BBL approach \u2014 rigorous execution, full project ownership, and a strong client experience, from the first conversation through to project delivery.<\/p>\n
Recognized for its expertise in commercial construction, BBL Construction is now applying the same execution discipline to the multi-residential sector. This appointment strengthens the company\u2019s capacity to respond to growing demand in the Outaouais at a time when accelerating housing development is more essential than ever.<\/p>\n
At BBL, Benoit has distinguished himself through his ability to lead large-scale projects with a high level of control and leadership. He notably led the La Cit\u00e9 Project, a 19-storey mixed-use tower delivered in 2024, and also oversaw the region\u2019s first prefabricated affordable multi-residential housing projects, contributing to the evolution of construction practices while strengthening the company\u2019s execution capacity moving forward.<\/p>\n
A graduate engineer from the \u00c9cole de technologie sup\u00e9rieure (\u00c9TS), Benoit Chr\u00e9tien brings extensive experience in real estate and the delivery of complex projects. At SNC-Lavalin, he served as a Mechanical Engineer responsible for the real estate portfolio in Eastern Ontario. He later joined BGIS as Director, where he was responsible for the design of Portage 3, currently under construction. As part of the Zibi team (Ed Brunet), he also acted as the Construction Manager responsible for the ALTO Tower (15 storeys).<\/p>\n
This professional background, combined with his accomplishments at BBL, aligns naturally with the mandate entrusted to him today: equipping the team, structuring the sector, and supporting the growth of the multi-residential sector with the same level of discipline, project after project.<\/p>\n
