Who We Are

Welcome to TELUS Digital — where innovation drives impact at a global scale. As an award-winning digital product consultancy and the digital division of TELUS, one of Canada’s largest telecommunications providers, we design and deliver transformative customer experiences through cutting-edge technology, agile thinking, and a people-first culture.

In January 2023, TELUS Digital acquired WillowTree, creating a combined firm with service offerings spanning Customer Experience and Digital Solutions.

With a global team across North America, South America, Central America, Europe, and APAC, we offer end-to-end expertise across eight core service areas: Digital Product Consulting, Digital Marketing Services, Data & AI, Strategy Consulting, Business Operations Modernization, Enterprise Applications, Cloud Engineering, and QA & Test Engineering.

From mobile apps and websites to voice UI, chatbots, AI, customer service, and in-store solutions, TELUS Digital enables seamless, trusted, and digitally powered experiences that meet customers wherever they are — all backed by the secure infrastructure and scale of our multi-billion-dollar parent company.

• Create, guide, and communicate the holistic (WillowTree, client, 3rd party) project plan and goals to create alignment and drive convergent implementation
• Encourage sustainable flow for your team while focusing on key client objectives
• Be flexible and adaptive to changing scenarios and environments by applying appropriate project management frameworks to suit the customer and product
• Regularly visit your client, usually 1-3 days per month, up to 20% of the time during kickoff or launch periods

• Experience leading Fortune 500 custom software development projects, from discovery through UX design, implementation, and deployment
• Demonstrated empathy, experience, and confidence managing software projects with complex scope and with multiple external/client executive stakeholders
• An experienced technical problem solver who can adeptly figure out how to address and communicate technical or process issues between systems (e.g., API issues vs client-side, bug management issues, etc.)
• Expert communicator who regularly runs workshops and structured meetings to align client stakeholder groups on enterprise business goals
• You have a blend of business, user experience, and software project management acumen, and a mindset of motivating clients and 3rd party counterparts to be collaborative partners
