Job description

We are seeking a Senior Project Manager with 10+ years of experience to lead high-performing teams through the delivery of large-scale, complex IT initiatives. This role requires a leader who excels in a matrix environment and is deeply familiar with Agile delivery. You will be responsible for the full project lifecycle—from establishing requirements and managing third-party vendors to coordinating provincial-wide deployment and post-go-live lessons learned. The ideal candidate will balance technical rigor with superior stakeholder management to ensure solutions meet business requirements on schedule and within budget.

Pay Rate : $609.86-$644.49 / Diem

Advantages

  • High-Level Visibility : Act as a central figure in coordinating provincial-wide readiness and presenting to senior executive leadership.
  • Dynamic Environment : Lead high-performing, multi-disciplinary teams in a matrix organizational structure.
  • Portfolio Complexity : Manage inter-dependent projects that require sophisticated coordination between internal teams and external 3rd party suppliers.
  • Professional Growth : Influence the optimization of project management methodologies and organizational change management frameworks.

Responsibilities

  • Agile Leadership : Provide strategic direction to technical and business professionals, enabling agile approaches and facilitating work without dictating tasks.
  • Artifact Management : Develop and maintain a full range of project artifacts, including detailed project plans, schedules, and Work Breakdown Structures (WBS).
  • Risk & Issue Mitigation : Proactively identify, manage, and report on project risks, establishing robust contingency plans to ensure project continuity.
  • Financial Oversight : Monitor and forecast project costs, providing detailed reporting and input to ensure all fiscal targets are met.
  • Stakeholder Coordination : Handle high-level client relationships, manage expectations, and coordinate provincial engagement for requirements and design.
  • Deployment & Transition : Facilitate coordination of go-live activities, change management plans, and the transition from project phase to operational readiness.
  • Executive Reporting : Prepare and present briefing materials, issues notes, and interactive dashboards to senior management and executive decision-makers.
  • Qualifications

  • Senior PM Expertise : 10+ years of experience managing large, complex, multi-year IT projects involving multiple inter-dependent workstreams.
  • Agile Delivery : Demonstrated experience in Agile methodologies; Scrum Master certification and practical experience in this role are highly beneficial.
  • Vendor Management : Extensive experience managing third-party deliverables, vendor relationships, and acceptance processes.
  • Technical Proficiency : Expert-level skills in MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Visio) and experience creating interactive dashboards for project monitoring.
  • Strategic Communication : Superior negotiating, mediating, and influencing skills, with the ability to communicate complex concepts to clients, developers, and testers.
  • Analytical Skills : Strong ability to diagnose complex business and IT issues and facilitate resolutions in a timely fashion.
  • Public Sector Context (Asset) : Familiarity with the Unified I&IT Project Methodology (UPM), gating processes, and Enterprise Architecture standards.
  • Summary
