Job description

Our client is a recognized leader in delivering digital and geospatial solutions across various industries. As they continue to grow, they’re looking to add a driven and skilled Project Manager to oversee strategic GIS and data integration initiatives. This is a high-impact role centered on delivering technical implementations that drive innovation, improve efficiency, and create real value for clients.

Your Mission

You’ll be responsible for managing the end-to-end execution of complex technology implementation projects in GIS and CAD. From early-stage planning to client delivery, you’ll coordinate multidisciplinary teams and ensure that every project is delivered on time, on budget, and to spec.

What You’ll Do

• Collaborate with internal GIS / data specialists and client stakeholders to understand needs, define project scope, and contribute to the preparation of proposals and technical work plans.
• Translate business goals into structured project deliverables, aligning resources, timelines, and budgets.
• Lead planning sessions, set up workflows, assign responsibilities, and drive progress across all project phases.
• Use tools like SmartSheet, MS Project, or Salesforce to monitor tasks, track resource utilization, and ensure timely delivery.
• Manage multiple workstreams, balancing internal capacity with external resources or contractors as needed.
• Monitor project health with real-time metrics : budget usage, timelines, deliverables, and risk indicators.
• Conduct financial oversight of projects, ensuring accurate time tracking, billing, and forecast reporting.
• Coordinate with vendors or service partners, defining scopes, deliverables, and expectations for each third-party contributor.
• Maintain clear and continuous communication with stakeholders through regular meetings, documentation, and performance updates.
• Contribute to post-project success by helping to collect client feedback, prepare case studies, and participate in relevant marketing initiatives.

What You Bring

• Minimum 8+ years of experience managing technology or data-centric projects, ideally in sectors such as public infrastructure, utilities, or enterprise IT.
• Experience with GIS platforms (such as ArcGIS), data pipelines (like FME or similar ETL tools), or digital transformation initiatives.
• PMP certification or similar project management training (a strong asset).
• Strong command of project management methodologies and tools (e.g., SmartSheet, Salesforce, MS Project, MS Teams).
• Excellent communication skills in both French and English—able to engage technical teams and executive stakeholders alike.
• A structured, solution-oriented mindset with the ability to manage competing priorities in fast-paced environments.
• Knowledge of CAD or document management systems is considered a bonus.
• Flexibility to travel occasionally within North America (5-10 days a year).
