At Loblaw Digital, we know that our customers expect the best from us. Whether that means building the best, most innovative online shopping experience, or designing an app that will impact the lives of people across the country, we’re up for the challenge. From our office in Downtown Toronto, we’ve created leading eCommerce experiences in the online grocery shopping, beauty, pharmacy, and apparel spaces, and we’re only just getting started.

The Impact you’ll make

Our Senior Technical Program Managers are integral to how we operate and are responsible for not only ensuring that eCommerce and technology initiatives are delivered on-plan, but also ensuring collaboration and enablement amongst our cross-functional teams. Our network of team members are deployed across all our businesses, and strategically placed throughout our shared capabilities. We operate as a unit with a vision focused on bridging functions by making connections, encouraging transparency, communicating clearly, and enabling technology solutions.

As a Senior Technical Program Manager (STPM), you will manage technical eCommerce initiatives that span across our multi-disciplinary teams (both internal and externally with the broader enterprise). Create and track detailed project plans, manage, and resolve issues and risks, work alongside integrated teams, and communicate status and priorities through succinct updates – helping build and run our businesses, not just manage projects!

What you’ll do

• Lead end-to-end plan and delivery management of technical solutions for business and technology initiatives
• Enable and cultivate relationship management, partner communication, and management of cross team dependencies, including scoping, planning, prioritization, escalation, capacity planning, and cross-functional alignment
• Partner and collaborate with product, technology, business, and cross-functional partners to support business objectives through plan definition management, delivery management, proactive resolution of project risks/issues, and cross-functional roadmap efficiencies
• Drive technical delivery and lead technical program management by bringing teams together to proactively plan and align on strategies that are both interim solutions, and long-term investments

What you’ll need

• Leadership ability handling critical initiatives and the inter-dependencies between multiple workstreams, teams, and outcomes using agile/scrum methodologies while driving clear action and ownership
• 5 years of experience leading and launching large-scale customer facing eCommerce projects across web and mobile technologies (GCP preferred)
• Experience mentoring and coaching peers and functional colleagues
• Strong inter-personal and communication skills including ability to work in a multi-functional environment, communicating with all levels of the organization, and ensuring sound vendor management
• Experience articulating technical constructs and concepts to non-technical partners

How You’ll Succeed

At Loblaw Digital, we seek great people to continually strengthen our culture. We believe great people model our values, are authentic, build trust and make connections.

We’re able to keep innovating because our colleagues are passionate about their work and excited about the future of eCommerce.

If you have big ideas, undeniable enthusiasm, and thrive in a collaborative, creative, and diverse group, we’ll get along just fine.

Looking for a challenge? Good. Love an innovative work environment? Even better.
