Join to apply for the Project Delivery Manager role at ATB Financial

At ATB, we exist to make it possible for our clients, team members and communities. Our purpose is more than aspirational. It's a real commitment we live every day through our values (what we call the ATB ID ).

About

Life at ATB is about more than work. In fact, we’re consistently recognized as one of Canada's top employers thanks to our high-care, high-performance culture, upheld by the three commitments we make to our team members:

Impact in action: No matter where you are in the organization, you're empowered to make an impact in the lives of our clients and communities.

Thrive together: We want you—the unique, authentic you—to feel safe and celebrated at work. We're on a continuous journey to build the most flexible and inclusive programs.

Ready for tomorrow: We want to enable your success through interesting and challenging work, performance enablement, and learning and development.

About The Role

As ATB’s next Project Delivery Manager within People Places & Spaces (PP&S), you will report to the Senior Manager, Project Delivery. This hands-on role is essential in bringing our projects to life by managing all aspects of project execution, from scope and timelines to budgets. Your goal will be to ensure each project delivers exceptional value and aligns with our strategic objectives.

In this dynamic role, you will oversee project management efforts from initiation through to close-out, working closely with cross-functional teams to ensure successful outcomes. You will be responsible for maintaining project documentation, updating stakeholders, and measuring project value realization to ensure we meet our objectives and deliver on our promises. Your leadership and proactive approach will be crucial in shaping project success and enhancing the end-user experience.

This position is critical for the seamless delivery of complex projects within PP&S. Your role in project management and effective cross-functional collaboration will drive the successful realization of our strategic initiatives. By optimizing project outcomes and enhancing end-user experiences, you will help align projects with our broader organizational goals, directly impacting efficiency, engagement, and user satisfaction. Slightly different from traditional Project Management, this role will require hands-on effort during project planning and delivery phases to support project outcomes.

PP&S is ATB’s real estate and facilities business unit and leads: real estate strategy, workplace optimization & experience, spatial design, construction, project management, leasing & subleasing management, facilities management & maintenance, asset management, facility operations, occupational health & safety, and physical security. PP&S oversees ATB’s 1.5 million square feet of space and the team is deeply connected to transforming banking through ATB’s client-facing locations, and leading the way with corporate workplace transformation, both of which bring ATB’s mandate to life and make it possible for Albertans.

Accountabilities

• Project Facilitation & Management: Lead and manage our most complex projects from end-to-end, ensuring effective execution and adherence to scope, timelines, and budget constraints.
• Scope & Budget Oversight: Develop, track, and manage project scopes, timelines, and budgets, ensuring deliverables meet financial and time parameters.
• Documentation Management: Maintain and update project documentation and workbooks, ensuring accuracy and completeness throughout the lifecycle.
• Stakeholder Communication: Develop and provide clear and consistent project updates to stakeholders, including status, changes, and key milestones.
• Cross-Functional Team Engagement: Coordinate with cross-functional teams to ensure collaborative execution and successful project outcomes.
• Change Impact Analysis: Conduct change impact analysis from end-user and process perspectives to ensure smooth transitions and minimal disruption; coordinate and support execution activities to accommodate identified impacts to systems, processes, people and tools.
• Project Health Reporting: Monitor and report on project health, addressing risks and issues to keep projects aligned with strategic goals.
• Value Realization: Measure and report on project value, documenting impacts and benefits in relation to organizational objectives.
• Project Launch & Close-Out: Coordinate project launches and close-outs, ensuring efficient completion and alignment with end-user needs; at times providing hands-on support for launch events.
  
  

Skills, Experience & Requirements

Distinctive Skill Requirements:

• Project Management: Ability to manage complex projects from initiation to completion, with a strong focus on scope, timelines, and budget.
• Process Adherence: Follow established project management processes, using good judgement to adapt to project-specific requirements where appropriate.

• Effective Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication, providing clear updates and engaging diverse stakeholders, with the ability to tailor messaging to distinct audiences.

• Multitasking and Prioritization: Ability to manage multiple complex projects, using good judgement to determine optimal prioritization of activities, navigating project teams through periods of uncertainty.
  
  

Requirements
