The role  

Please note, we are only accepting applicants from the provinces of Ontario and Québec for this role. For Québec-based candidates, fluency in English is necessary because the position entails collaboration with teams based in the rest of Americas and occasionally in Europe.

As a Project Manager / PMO, you are passionate about experience innovation and eager to push the boundaries of what’s possible. You bring 5 YEARS of experience, a growth mindset and a drive to make a lasting impact. 

We are looking for a strong Project Manager / PMO to support the Client domain portfolio and drive cross-team initiatives across the broader Omnichannel landscape, including Client, eCommerce, and Data. This role requires someone who can operate in a hybrid delivery environment, combining Waterfall project management discipline with Agile ways of working. The person will be expected to manage both portfolio-level governance and hands-on project delivery for complex, 
cross-functional initiatives involving multiple IT teams, business stakeholders, architects, vendors, and delivery partners. A strong technical background is required. The ideal candidate should be comfortable working closely with architects and technical leads to build detailed project plans, track technical activities across teams, identify dependencies, and follow up on execution with the right level of precision.

We are looking for someone who is structured, proactive, and able to connect business priorities with technical execution. This person should not only report project status but also actively drive delivery, clarify ownership, challenge unclear plans, and help teams move forward.

The ideal candidate is comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with multiple stakeholders, complex dependencies, and evolving priorities. They should bring strong PMO discipline, solid project management expertise, and enough technical depth to be credible with architects, engineers, and delivery teams.

You will thrive in this role if you are: 

• A curious problem solver who challenges the status quo 
• A collaborator who values teamwork and knowledge-sharing 
• Excited by the intersection of technology, creativity and data 
• Experienced in Agile methodologies and consulting

Role responsibilities

Portfolio Management
• Manage and maintain the Client domain project portfolio, including project status, timelines, risks, dependencies, budget indicators, and key decisions.

• Track project prioritization, delivery capacity, major milestones, and business/technical impacts across the portfolio.
• Identify portfolio-level risks, conflicts, dependencies, and resource constraints, and escalate them when needed.
• Support the definition and improvement of PMO standards, templates, reporting, and governance practices.

Project Management — Hybrid Waterfall / Agile
• Lead cross-team initiatives across the Client domain and the broader Omnichannel macro-domain, including eCommerce, Client, and Data.
• Build and maintain detailed project plans covering business, functional, technical, architecture, development, integration, testing, deployment, and change management

organization and delivery cadence.
• Ensure clear communication between business stakeholders, IT teams, and leadership.
• Drive execution follow-up and ensure that technical and functional activities are progressing according to plan.
• Support UAT, release preparation, deployment readiness, CAB preparation, and post-golive follow-up when applicable.

Technical Coordination
• Partner with solution architects and technical leads to understand system impacts, integration points, technical dependencies, and delivery constraints.
• Track technical activities across multiple teams, including Salesforce, mobile apps, data platforms, integrations, eCommerce, and downstream systems.
• Ensure technical plans are detailed enough to identify ownership, sequencing, dependencies, risks, and blockers.
• Challenge unclear plans, missing ownership, unrealistic timelines, or incomplete technical assumptions.
• Facilitate alignment between architecture, product, engineering, QA, security, infrastructure, and support teams.
