Senior Project Manager

Location: Montreal (Hybrid – 1–2 days on-site, 3 days remote) Type: Contract Rate: $80/hr – $85/hr About the Role We're looking for a Senior, Bilingual (EN/FR) Project Manager to step into a complex, fast-moving workstream mid-flight within a large post-merger integration program in the Financial Services sector. This is a high-visibility contract role for a seasoned PM who can hit the ground running, influence at the C-suite level, and bring structure and momentum to a demanding, dynamic environment. If you're an adaptable leader — a strong listener, influencer, negotiator, and facilitator with superior communication skills — we'd love to hear from you. What You'll Do Own the workstream plan, tracking, and reporting; lean into key ad-hoc deliverables as priorities shift. Manage all aspects of the project lifecycle — scoping, resource assignment, planning, tracking, monitoring, and reporting. Develop and maintain key project artifacts: project plan, RAID log, issue/action logs, risk management, communication plan, and status reports. Facilitate project team and steering committee discussions, influencing stakeholders at all levels — including firm leadership and C-suite. Coordinate and manage activities across the broader program, driving results across cross-functional teams without direct reporting authority. Maintain the PMO library and lessons-learned database, applying insights to strengthen delivery. Contribute to continuous improvement through templates, procedures, and process enhancements. What You Bring Must-haves: 7+ years of project management experience delivering complex project solutions. Proven ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously. Hands-on experience with Agile methodology. Expert-level MS Suite, including Microsoft Project. Intermediate Google Suite proficiency. Strong stakeholder-management and communication skills, including experience engaging firm leadership and C-suite audiences. Bilingual — English & French (oral and written). Nice-to-haves: RPA / UiPath experience. Reporting tools such as Tableau or Power BI. Experience with Workday and/or Salesforce. Project Management designation (e.g., PMP) — an asset, but not required. What Sets You Apart Strong business acumen and experience on business-driven initiatives. Exceptional attention to detail and a high bar for quality, compliance, and accuracy. Ability to anticipate stakeholder reactions and navigate them with sensitivity and directness. A self-starter who thrives with minimal supervision, sets priorities, and consistently meets deadlines. Strong relationship-builder, internally and externally, grounded in ethical, values-aligned behaviour.

Lead a complex workstream within a post-merger integration program in the financial services sector. Manage the full project lifecycle, including planning, tracking, and reporting while influencing C-suite stakeholders.

Requires over 7 years of complex project management experience and fluency in both English and French. Proficiency in Agile methodology and the Microsoft Suite is essential.
