Job description

Role Responsibilities

Reporting to the Director of Planning & Site Readiness within the School Buildings and Partnership Branch, the Senior Project Manager has the overall responsibility and accountability for the delivery of safe, functional, high-quality cost effective, sustainable facilities that meet Alberta Education and Childcare and school jurisdiction program delivery needs. This position is the “go-to” person for all issues/challenges related to the capital projects they manage and ensures projects are delivered on time, budget and scope. The projects range in size (from $1 million to over $60 million) and complexity from a modular addition to a complex high school with community partnership components.

The Senior Project Manager works closely with client representatives from Alberta Education and Childcare, school jurisdictions and municipality representatives focusing on the inception/planning stage, and potentially extending to all aspects of a project, including to the end of warranty period. The Senior Project Manager is responsible for planning, design, and procurement activities, and potentially extending into the construction, commissioning, and warranty management of approved learning facility projects.

The primary responsibilities for the Senior Project Manager include, but are not limited to leading and managing learning facility projects by ensuring:

  • All aspects of execution, control, monitoring and closure for assigned capital project(s) are fully implemented
  • Project scope is met, accurately reflecting Alberta Education and the school jurisdiction’s requirements and the infrastructure that will be required to support these requirements. The Alberta and National Building Codes, as well as Infrastructure’s technical standards are utilized as key resources for scope documentation
  • The project is well organized and structured for communication and decision making. A complete and accurate list of resources required for project planning, design and implementation is established, and the project teams are organized for working groups, steering groups, and potentially deputy minister’s committees
  • The construction team is selected either through a public tender process, or within the guidelines established by the ministry. The Senior Project Manager monitors construction to ensure that the facility meets the requirements of the contract documents
  • All project expenditures, contractual commitments, and contract changes, are well documented, controlled and approved within established guidelines
  • Proactively identifying and communicating project risks or issues to the Director in a timely manner, ensuring alignment on mitigation strategies.
