Be the HERO our clients need!

Are you a dynamic professional with expertise in Canadian HCM systems, HR, payroll, benefits, and consulting? At PayTech, we’re looking for a hands‑on Project Manager who brings more than just project management experience to the table. You’ll act as a strategic leader and tactical expert, helping clients overcome challenges, achieve their goals, and leave every engagement feeling empowered.

In this role, you won’t just manage projects, you’ll make a direct impact. From HCM system implementations to open enrollment setup and post‑implementation support, every project you engage with will help our clients unlock their full potential.

What You’ll Do:

• Lead with Strategy: Manage projects of varying complexity while acting as a trusted advisor to our clients.
• Roll Up Your Sleeves: Step in to handle tactical activities where clients lack the time or resources. Proficiency in UKG and Dayforce HCM systems provides you with a competitive edge.
• Transform Workflows: Conduct deep analyses of clients’ systems, processes, and teams, and identify opportunities for efficiency, automation, and improvement.
• Drive Results: Develop and implement tailored solutions, track progress, and deliver measurable business outcomes.
• Collaborate: Act as a liaison between clients, vendors, and stakeholders ensuring seamless communication and timely project milestones. Work closely with colleagues and lead project teams to success.

A Day in the Life:

Imagine working on an HCM system implementation. You’ll:

• HCM consulting with new and existing customers, discover vendor partner objectives and develop success plans to drive value on every project
• Overcome challenges and proactively uncover and mitigate risk
• Discover additional opportunities to compliment implementations, system utilization and solve other business problems our clients might be facing
• Communication, and lots of it! You will be interacting with executive stakeholders, internal and external project teams, vendor partners, and clients
• Daily collaboration with an exceptional, highly functioning team of consultants
• Shine in the role of trusted advisor
• Utilize Project Management methodologies and tools

Every engagement brings variety and impact, with opportunities to travel depending on client needs.

Why You’ll Love This Role:

• Make a Difference: Be the HERO clients count on to overcome challenges and thrive.
• Endless Opportunities: Work on diverse projects from full‑scale HCM implementations, targeted optimizations to post implementation support.
• Growth & Development: Enjoy training, advancement opportunities, and a team that values your expertise.
• Competitive Perks: Full‑time, overtime‑eligible positions with competitive pay and benefits.
