Job description

Job Title: Snr Project Manager : SAP RISE

Job ID: 90632

Location: Calgary, Alberta

What you will be doing:

Delivery Leadership

• Own the full project lifecycle from initiation through deployment and stabilization.
• Build and maintain detailed project schedules; manage critical paths; enforce milestone discipline.(Time critical use technology to save time but not thought process.)
• Maintain budget performance within defined tolerances; track burn rates and financial variances.
• Govern scope tightly through structured change control processes with quantified impacts.
• Ensure all deliverables meet acceptance criteria, compliance requirements, and operational readiness standards.

Critical Thinking & Decision Support

• Evaluate requirements, estimates, and solution options using objective analysis.
• Challenge assumptions from vendors, technical teams, and stakeholders to ensure feasibility and accuracy.
• Conduct scenario modeling (best case, realistic, worst case) to support informed decision-making.
• Distinguish root causes from symptoms when issues arise; recommend actionable, data-driven solutions.

Risk, Issue & Escalation Management

• Identify risks early and maintain a living RAID log with clear owners and mitigation strategies.
• Quantify impacts of risks and issues on delivery outcomes; elevate with clarity and solution options.
• Drive proactive dependency management across architecture, development, QA, security, and operations.

Technical & Cross-Functional Coordination

• Work closely with technical teams to validate designs, integration approaches, and deployment plans.
• Ensure alignment across architecture, development, QA, DevOps, cybersecurity, and operations.
• Translate technical constraints into business impacts and decision options for leadership.

Stakeholder & Vendor Management

• Provide transparent, concise reporting with RAG status, quantified impacts, and recommended actions.

• Facilitate executive steering committees and ensure alignment across business units.

What you must have:

• Experienced in SAP RISE and in helping enterprise-wide ERP system migration.

• High levels of demonstrable Project awareness, especially around project mitigations, risks and issues.
