This is a high-priority role within a broader transformation program. You will be responsible for onboarding quickly to manage complex projects involving Salesforce and PRM (Partner Relationship Management) implementation.

This is a long-term contract (until March 31, 2027) offered as Fully Remote (candidates must be based in Montreal or Toronto). Important : Due to the critical nature of the project, interviews will be held during the holiday season (late December) for an early January start.

Advantages

Lead a high-visibility transformation project with a strategic impact on Wealth Management.

Secure a long-term contract (2+ years) with a stable organization.

Enjoy a fully remote work arrangement (with very rare travel to Montreal, 1-2 times / year).

Join a team where your expertise in vendor management and IT delivery will be highly valued.

Continued opportunity : The role is designed to retain the Project Manager for other ongoing projects within the program for the long term.

Responsibilities

Lead high-visibility, complex IT mandates with strategic corporate objectives, requiring strong political acumen and leadership.

Manage service agreements and relationships with external vendors / integrators, ensuring compliance and value delivery.

Organize and facilitate planning, tracking, and feedback events involving multiple management levels, sites, and external resources.

Adapt delivery methods to multi-mode contexts (Agile, Lean-Agile, or traditional / hybrid) while championing best practices.

Proactively manage risks, issues, and blockers, building action plans to facilitate implementation and mitigate impacts.

Provide transparent, consolidated progress reports (costs, quality, risks, value delivered) to senior management.

Establish resource and cost estimates, including contributions from change management experts.

Oversee the implementation of software development and digital transformation projects (specifically Salesforce / PRM), ensuring scalable and compliant solutions.

Qualifications

Minimum 8 years of experience as an IT Project Manager.

Strong knowledge of Experience Cloud, CRM, and MuleSoft integrations is a major asset.

Proven ability to align diverse stakeholders and technical teams around a common vision.

English proficiency is mandatory (oral and written); French is considered an asset.

• Our client operates in Canada. The company takes all reasonable steps to limit the number of positions in Quebec that require knowledge of a language other than French, and only requires it when necessary and its existing bilingual employees are unable to perform these duties.

Based on an assessment conducted by our client, it has been determined that this position requires candidates to be fluent in English (both spoken and written). In particular, this position will require the employee to interact with centralized internal departments (e.g., Operations / HR / Finance / Legal / Contracts / Sales) that support the organization in Canada and that do not speak French.

PMP, PMI-ACP, or SAFe certifications are assets.

Summary
