Job Summary
The AI Program Lead is accountable for the end-to-end delivery of Brampton BHIVE’s AI Enablement Program, ensuring strong execution discipline, alignment to program development objectives, and measurable outcomes for participating SMEs. This role serves as the central orchestration point across program delivery, stakeholder management, and impact reporting, translating strategy into structured, time bound execution.

Key Responsibilities:

● Own end-to-end delivery of the AI Enablement Program, driving execution from cohort intake through post-program impact reporting with minimal day-to-day oversight required

● Bring structure to ambiguity, translating strategic direction from the leadership and partners into concrete plans, milestones, and accountability across a multi-partner initiative

● Build and continuously improve operations for the program (delivery frameworks, intake and enrollment processes, program delivery, status reporting, escalation paths)

● Proactively identify risks and surface blockers early, and drive resolution across internal teams and external partners before they affect cohort outcomes or participant experience.

● Facilitate awareness sessions, business seminars, enrollment activities, stakeholder meetings, and program updates (note: curriculum design and workshop delivery is led separately by the Curriculum Lead)

● Manage relationships with external partners, vendors, subject matter experts, and ecosystem stakeholders, holding each accountable to delivery commitments and program standards

● Coordinate cross-functional contributors across marketing, sales, technical delivery, and curriculum, aligning priorities, decisions, and deadlines without escalating routine trade-offs

● Oversee program budgets, resource allocation, vendor coordination, and operational processes, maintaining fiscal accountability and operational efficiency at scale

● Review and enhance participant business cases, implementation roadmaps, and KPI definitions

● Monitor program performance, participant engagement, and measurable outcomes, synthesizing insights into executive-level reporting for the CEO, COO, Board, and municipal and provincial funding stakeholders

● Serve as the senior point of contact for participating businesses, providing direct guidance, issue resolution, and escalation management throughout the engagement

Requirements

Qualifications:

● 5+ years leading complex, cross functional, or multi-stakeholder programs in fast-moving environments such as startups, scale-ups, innovation hubs, management consulting, or comparable settings

● Track record of operating with high autonomy, taking ambiguous mandates and converting them into structured, measurable execution without heavy oversight

● Demonstrated cross-functional leadership across marketing, sales, technical, and partnership functions, with proven ability to drive alignment among senior stakeholders and external partners

● Experience managing implementation-stage initiatives, with a builder mindset for the systems, tools, and frameworks that make a program repeatable and scalable

● Strong commercial and analytical orientation, modelling ROI, and using data to drive decisions

● Excellent executive communication and stakeholder management skills, including comfort engaging at the C-suite, board, and government funder level

● Degree in Business, Engineering, Public Policy, or a related field; MBA or comparable graduate credential considered an asset

● Proficiency in Google Workspace and CRM tools (Zoho preferred); fluency with modern AI tools is strongly preferred

● Demonstrated interest in startups, innovation, and the Canadian entrepreneurship ecosystem
