Business Systems Program Manager

We are looking for a Business Systems Program Manager to drive improvements to our core business systems and broader technology environment.

You provide the structure, analysis, facilitation, project leadership, and coordination needed to turn those priorities into results. You will work across CRM, PLM, ERP, and other enterprise applications, while also contributing to broader initiatives involving data, integrations, cloud technologies, automation, AI, security, and other emerging technologies.

Please note this is an in-office position, located at our head office in Ottawa, ON, address: 2650 Queensview Dr. Unit #150, Ottawa, ON K2B 8H6.

YOUR CHALLENGE: 

Business Partnership & Analysis

• Build strong relationships with business leaders, process owners, subject matter experts, and end users.
• Facilitate discovery and requirements sessions to understand business needs, processes, challenges, priorities, and desired outcomes.
• Translate business needs into clear requirements and actionable initiatives.
• Challenge assumptions and help distinguish the underlying business need from a proposed technology solution.
• Evaluate opportunities based on business value, effort, risk, dependencies, strategic alignment, and organizational readiness.
• Help business teams make decisions, establish priorities, and maintain ownership throughout initiatives.

Program & Project Management

• Lead initiatives involving CRM, PLM, ERP, and other business systems and technologies from discovery through implementation and adoption.
• Develop project plans, milestones, responsibilities, dependencies, communications, and measures of success.
• Coordinate business teams, IT, vendors, consultants, and implementation partners.
• Manage risks, issues, decisions, actions, and deliverables while keeping initiatives moving forward.
• Provide leadership and stakeholders with clear visibility into progress, priorities, risks, roadblocks, and required decisions.
• Manage multiple initiatives and help establish priorities across the portfolio.

Systems & Process Improvement

• Work with business teams to develop improvement roadmaps for key systems and processes.
• Identify opportunities to simplify processes, improve integration and data, reduce duplication, and make better use of existing technology.
• Coordinate system implementations, upgrades, enhancements, integrations, and related process changes.
• Maintain a prioritized pipeline of improvements aligned with business and technology strategy.
• Identify where automation, AI, and emerging technologies could provide meaningful business value.

Change Management & Adoption

• Build communication, training, documentation, and adoption into project plans from the outset.
• Work with business leaders and subject matter experts to prepare teams for change.
• Ensure appropriate business ownership is established following implementation.
• Gather feedback, address adoption challenges, and assess whether expected business outcomes are being achieved.

Implementation is not complete when the technology goes live. It is complete when the business successfully adopts the change and realizes the intended value.
