• Monitor project financial and delivery performance, including forecasts, utilization, invoicing inputs, scope changes, and contractual commitments.
• Coordinate requirements, configuration, data migration, integration, testing, training, cutover, deployment, and stabilization activities.
• Identify and resolve delivery concerns and make routine project tradeoff decisions independently.
• Provide clear executive-level status reporting and escalate material risks, issues, or commercial concerns promptly.
• Maintain project documentation and ensure adherence to PMO, quality, security, and customer requirements.
• Support estimates, proposals, statements of work, implementation planning, and expansion opportunities.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in business, information technology, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent relevant experience.
• Five or more years of project management experience, including responsibility for customer-facing technology or enterprise-system projects.
• Experience managing at least one full ERP implementation lifecycle or a comparably complex enterprise application deployment.
• Strong understanding of scope, schedule, budget, risk, resource, change, and stakeholder management.
• Ability to lead distributed cross-functional teams and manage multiple priorities and dependencies.
• Strong customer-management, facilitation, negotiation, and executive communication skills.
• Must reside in Canada, work effectively with geographically distributed teams, and be available for domestic and international travel as project needs require.
• Ability to pass required background investigation and any customer-mandated screening.

Preferred Qualifications

• PMP, PMI-ACP, Scrum, or comparable certification.
• Experience with cloud ERP platforms and implementation methodologies.
• Experience in aerospace, defense, aviation MRO, energy, utilities, or asset-intensive manufacturing.
