ABOUT THIS CAREER OPPORTUNITY
Reporting to the Director of Business and AI Integration, the Business Integration Manager owns the lifecycle of business capabilities, from discovering what users actually need, to shaping strategy, to driving adoption and measuring real-world value.

You'll work across Black & McDonald's diverse business lines (construction, utilities, energy, facilities management, service), ensuring that digital platforms and processes deliver measurable outcomes and a great user experience. The domain is infrastructure, but the work is product thinking, stakeholder engagement, and change leadership.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Market Discovery & Understanding
• Conduct structured discovery with stakeholders across roles and regions: not just respond to tickets.
• Build and maintain user personas. (e.g., field supervisors vs. project managers vs. approvers)
• Investigate why technology adoption succeeds or fails, and document root causes.
• Develop domain knowledge deep enough to hold substantive conversations with operations leaders.
• Identify process inefficiencies and propose improvements through technology, automation, or AI.

Strategy & Positioning
• Write problem-led positioning for the capabilities you own: articulate value without jargon.
• Maintain living business cases with problem, solution, benefits, and financials.
• Contribute to portfolio-level planning and identify cross-capability dependencies.
• Track capability maturity from initial stand-up through to full operational KPIs.
• Explore and implement AI/ML where it delivers measurable business outcomes.

Planning & Architecture
• Write outcome-focused requirements: problem before solution, always.
• Apply product lifecycle thinking. (concept → launch → feedback → iterate)
• Advocate for end users in every technology decision.
• Design governance frameworks that others can use independently.
• Contribute to enterprise architecture discussions and capability mapping.
• Ensure products are robust, secure, and compliant. (SOC 2, ISO 27001)

Execution & Platform Operations
• Oversee the lifecycle of technology platforms (e.g., Procore, ERP, scheduling and workforce management tools), ensuring alignment with business objectives.
• Build deep, named partnerships with project managers, district managers, and field teams.
• Maintain governance documentation, SOPs, and review cadences

Launch, Adoption & Value Realisation
• Create structured launch plans with success metrics, messaging, and feedback loops.
• Ensure training and help desk teams deliver high-quality onboarding and support; monitor performance and drive improvements.
• Drive adoption in the field and in the office, track usage data, address barriers, remove friction.
• Own post-delivery value: track whether expected outcomes actually materialized and recommend scale or course-correct decisions.

Stakeholder Engagement & Change Leadership
• Build a broad network of trusted relationships across business lines and regions.
• Lead cross-functional change initiatives with clear purpose, outcomes, and measurement.
• Author polished communications calibrated to different audiences. (field, executive, technical)
• Navigate conflict constructively. Push back diplomatically, maintain relationships.
• Flag risks early with rationale and mitigation.

Professional Growth
• Ramp quickly in new domains. We value learning speed, not prior memorization.
• Seek and act on coaching. We assess this explicitly because we believe in it.
• Adapt your communication style to your audience in real time.

REQUIREMENTS
Required:
• 3–5 years in business systems, product management, technology enablement, process improvement, or management consulting.
