Who We Are

At Nature's Touch, you're not just building a career; you're joining a trailblazing team that believes in the power of collaboration, diversity, and continuous learning.

Since 2004, we've been on a fast-growing journey from a small startup to a global leader in private-label frozen food manufacturing. With modern facilities across North America - including two plants in Canada, two in the U.S., and one in Mexico - we proudly supply millions of households worldwide. What drives us is simple: a commitment to quality, innovation, and sustainability.

We're shaping the future of frozen fruit - and we'd love for you to be part of that growth. At Nature's Touch, growth opportunities are everywhere!

The Opportunity

Reporting to the Director of PMO, the Project Manager owns the end-to-end execution of private-label and branded initiatives across a high-volume, fast-moving portfolio - from Innovation and Pack at Source to CapEx and packaging transitions. You'll lead cross-functional teams through the full product lifecycle, with full accountability for on-time delivery and outcomes.

Your work will directly shape how our products reach the shelves of major North American and global retailers.

If you're a seasoned, tech-savvy project manager who connects the dots, uses AI and automation to work smarter, and wants to grow with a PMO that is scaling fast, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

Project Delivery

• Build and manage detailed project plans across Innovation, Pack at Source, CapEx, and packaging transition projects, keeping deliverables on time, within scope, and aligned with objectives

Artwork & Packaging Transitions

• Lead artwork management from initiation to production-ready delivery, including version control, routing, approvals, and compliance
• Manage packaging transitions end to end - timelines, risks, and associated liabilities - to ensure smooth execution and minimize financial impact

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Serve as the primary liaison across Sales, Procurement, R&I, Production, Regulatory, Quality, and Logistics to keep deliverables on track
• Own risk escalation and resolution with stakeholders

Reporting, AI & Continuous Improvement

• Own the accuracy of critical project data - timelines, documentation, budgets, risks, dependencies, and artwork processes
• Prepare and deliver project updates, dashboards, and presentations that clearly communicate progress, risks, financial considerations, and recommendations
• Build and implement AI-driven solutions, agents, and automations that eliminate manual work and transform how the PMO operates
• Identify and recommend process improvements that strengthen project execution, communication, and operational efficiency

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in a relevant field, or an equivalent combination of education, training, and experience
• 5+ years of project management experience, with proven success managing multiple concurrent projects from initiation through launch
• Private-label experience in food and beverage manufacturing - highly recommended
• PMP, Lean Six Sigma Green/Black Belt, or equivalent certification - held or actively in progress - strongly preferred
• Tech-savvy AI power user and innovator who builds AI-driven solutions, agents, and automations and delivers measurable productivity gains
• Proficiency with Monday.com, including workflows, dashboards, automations, timelines, dependencies, and reporting
• Proficiency in Microsoft 365
• Highly organized, with exceptional attention to detail and a proven ability to structure and optimize project workflows
• Independent and proactive, yet collaborative - you manage multiple priorities under tight deadlines and take ownership of outcomes
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence and align cross-functional teams
• French - an asset

Working Conditions
