About the role

  • Lead end-to-end delivery of security and technology projects of varying size and complexity
  • Drive momentum by making timely, informed decisions and holding stakeholders accountable
  • Adapt project approach based on project scope, risk, and client context rather than forcing a single methodology
  • Quickly assess unfamiliar or unique client environments and define a practical path forward
  • Ensure projects deliver measurable outcomes aligned to client expectations and business goals
  • Serve as the primary point of accountability for project delivery
  • Build strong working relationships with clients through clarity, transparency, and results
  • Facilitate alignment across internal teams, external vendors, and client stakeholders
  • Confidently surface issues, trade-offs, and risks while proposing solutions
  • Support change management efforts during onboarding and transformation initiatives
  • Identify, assess, and manage project risks throughout the project lifecycle
  • Use data, metrics, and trend analysis to inform delivery decisions and prioritization
  • Right-size project governance and documentation based on project risk and impact
  • Avoid unnecessary administrative overhead while maintaining appropriate controls
  • Escalate issues with clear options and recommendations rather than open-ended problems
  • Own project initiation and delivery controls, including intake, kickoff, project setup, and active management of scope, schedule, and budget throughout the lifecycle

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience leading projects as a Project Manager, Senior Project Manager, or equivalent
  • Demonstrated ability to independently drive projects to completion
  • Strong decision-making skills with a bias toward action and accountability
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and defining structure where none exists
  • Data-driven mindset with the ability to use metrics to guide delivery
  • Excellent communication skills, particularly in client-facing situations
  • Strong understanding of project risk management and stakeholder alignment
  • Eligible to work in Canada for the duration of the contract
  • Experience delivering cybersecurity, technology, or IT projects would be an asset
  • Prior experience as a business analyst or the ability to discover requirements and ask the right questions would be considered an asset
  • Project management certification such as PMP, PRINCE2, or an equivalent credential is considered an asset, but demonstrated delivery experience and results matter more than formal certification.
