The A220 commercial aircraft Programme is looking for a dynamic Project Management Business Partner to join our Program team based in Mirabel.

In this role, you will act as a key support partner interfacing with Airbus Canada's operational and strategic purchasing teams, bringing fresh perspectives and digital tools into established project workflows.

You will join the A220 Project and Program Management Support team, dedicated to deploying best practices, standardizing governance, and modernizing project execution across all Airbus Canada functions. Our culture emphasizes continuous learning, autonomy, teamwork, and innovation.

Your Working Environment

The A220 commercial aircraft Programme is headquartered in Mirabel, just a short drive from the vibrant city of Montreal. Known for its peaceful and safe environment, the region offers a high quality of life for young professionals, perfectly balancing career opportunities with year-round outdoor and cultural activities.

How We Care for You

• Financial Rewards: Competitive entry-level salary, annual bonus, comprehensive group insurance plan, defined contribution pension plan, and employee share purchase plan.
• Work/Life Balance: Hybrid work policy, generous annual vacation policy, and on-site cafeteria facilities.
• Wellbeing & Health: Employee Assistance Program (EAP), corporate discounts, on-site medical clinic, carpooling platform, and dedicated shuttle service connecting the Montmorency metro station (Laval) directly to the Mirabel site.
• Accelerated Growth: Access to 10,000+ e-learning modules, dedicated onboarding and mentorship programs, professional certification sponsorship, and domestic and international mobility pathways across Airbus.

Your Role & Core Mandate

As an Project Management Business Partner, you will:

• Support Strategic Projects: Assist in guiding, organizing, and tracking key project management deliverables across Airbus Canada functions.
• Modernize Project Practices: Leverage modern project tools, data analytics, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) workflows to streamline project tracking, reporting, and team collaboration.
• Support Governance: Assist in establishing, documenting, and maintaining governance standards across business functions.

What You Will Do (Your Challenges)

• Governance & PM Support: Assist senior business partners in deploying project structures and governance models tailored to the A220 Programme.
• Smart Dashboards & Reporting: Design and maintain automated project dashboards, performance metrics, and reporting mechanisms using tools like Power BI and Excel to track project health and Site Services activities.
• AI & Workflow Integration: Identify opportunities to apply Artificial Intelligence (generative AI, LLMs, automated synthesis, and smart scheduling tools) to accelerate documentation, meeting summaries, task tracking, and milestone monitoring.
• Best-Practice Deployment: Learn and apply Airbus project management standards and methodologies (LBIP+, Standard BX, MGate Management).
• Cross-Functional Tracking: Follow up on project workstreams, action items, and interdependencies alongside multidisciplinary teams.
• Financial & Risk Tracking Support: Assist in maintaining project cost baselines and tracking the project Risks & Opportunities (R&O) register.
• Change Enablement: Support the rollout of People Change Management initiatives, helping teams adopt new methodologies and digital tools smoothly.

What You Bring (Your Boarding Pass)

Education:

• Recent Bachelor's or Master's degree in Project Management, Business Administration, Engineering, Computer Science, Data Analytics, or a related discipline.
• PMP (Project Management Professional) or foundational project management coursework is an asset.

AI, Digital, & Technical Skills:

• Demonstrated knowledge and practical interest in Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools (e.g., Gemini, LLM-based productivity platforms, prompt engineering, or AI-assisted project analytics).
• Strong working knowledge of digital productivity and visualization tools (e.g., Skywise, Google Workspace advanced, or Planisware).
• Understanding of how data automation and AI can streamline workflows, synthesize large volumes of information, and optimize decision-making.

Experience & Key Competencies:

• 0 to 2 years of relevant experience (internships, co-op work terms, university capstone projects, or student leadership initiatives).
• Strong analytical mind with the ability to summarize complex information into clear, structured updates.
• Proactive curiosity, a fast learner, and the confidence to ask questions and suggest modern improvements.
• Proven ability to organize personal priorities, track deadlines, and maintain attention to deliverable quality.

Languages & Interpersonal Strengths:

• Effective communication skills- both written and oral- in French and English, capable of working with local Mirabel teams and international Airbus stakeholders.
• A collaborative mindset with strong emotional intelligence, a positive "can-do" attitude, and an eagerness to learn from seasoned mentors.

Due to the sector of activity (aerospace), frequent contacts with Airbus entities worldwide, and interactions with suppliers and clients also located across the globe, proficiency in English is required for this position.

This job requires an awareness of any potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, as the foundation for the Company’s success, reputation and sustainable growth.
