You can apply for a restoration of your status within 90 days of expiry of your WP. During that time you won't be able to work with the new employer.

If a LMO has been applied for in your favour, you can apply for a WP 2 weeks before the expiration of your current WP. Attach a cover letter explaining you're waiting for the LMO to come out and your WP is expiring and you're sending the LMO (file number) once your employer receives it. (Hope this is still true; haven't been to CIC website for quite a while)

I think you can also apply for a work permit extension based on the job offer? Not sure tho, so better check with CIC.
