Position Summary The Senior Project Manager delivers initiatives across the Digital Technology portfolio, taking assigned projects from intake through close-out and applying the rigour, judgement, and structured delivery approach that complex business and technology change requires. This is a hands-on delivery role for a seasoned PM who is trusted with higher-profile, cross-functional, or operationally sensitive work.

The role operates within PMO standards, governance practices, and portfolio reporting expectations set by the PMO Lead.

Day to day, the Senior Project Manager plans and manages assigned projects to scope, schedule, budget, and quality standards. The role maintains the artifacts that keep delivery honest, partners with business sponsors, the Business Relationship Manager (BRM), BAs, Digital Platform Manager, Digital Platforms Administrators, vendors, and technical teams, and feeds project-level input into portfolio sequencing, dependency management, release planning, and benefits tracking.

This role reports to the Director, Digital Platforms, Delivery & Governance.

- Handle project-level stakeholder engagement and light analysis, looping in BA team when complexity exceeds PM scope
- Coordinate with Digital Platforms Manager & Administrators on configuration, testing, and release readiness

4. Risk, Dependency, Release & Operational Readiness

- Build operational readiness into delivery plans — support handoff, ITSM impacts, training, and post-go-live stabilization
- Coordinate release readiness — testing, cutover, change windows, and business validation with platform/technical teams
- Surface cross-project dependencies early so PMO leadership can act on them
- Ensure close-out includes lessons learned, documentation handoff, and post-implementation check-ins

5. Benefits, Adoption & Change Support

- Coordinate with BRM, BAs, sponsors, and L&D; to reflect adoption, training, and communication needs in delivery plans
- Support benefits definition at intake, keeping scope and milestones tied to intended business outcomes
- Monitor adoption risks during delivery — SME availability, process ownership, testing engagement, training gaps

- Familiarity with benefits realization: defining, tracking, and validating benefits post-implementation
- Strong communication skills across working teams, sponsors, and governance forums
- Comfortable with PM tools like MS Project, Smartsheet, Jira, ServiceNow PPM, or Azure DevOps

Preferred Qualifications
