Our purpose – the essence of SFU – is to create and connect knowledge, learning and community for deeper understanding and meaningful impact. We are committed to fostering excellence, innovation, belonging and community in all that we do.

We are agile, cross-functional teams of analysts, developers, and QA specialists who thrive on collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement. Our focus is building user-centered IT solutions that simplify processes, improve efficiency, and enhance the SFU experience for faculty and staff.
About the Role
The Associate Director, Product & Service Delivery provides strategic leadership across SFU’s academic management systems, with a focus on long-term planning, development, and alignment with institutional priorities. This role leads the product vision and roadmap for major initiatives—including the Integrated Faculty Management System (IFMS)—and ensures cohesive, scalable delivery across multiple Agile teams. The position plays a key role in driving change, aligning cross-functional delivery with business outcomes, and ensuring programs meet institutional goals, timelines, and sustainability targets.
The ideal candidate brings extensive experience in enterprise product management and solution delivery within complex organizations. A strong ability to align product strategy with institutional goals, guide multi-team Agile delivery, and make business-focused decisions is essential. This role requires strategic thinking, excellent communication, change management and the ability to lead across technical, academic, and administrative domains to drive long-term system evolution.
