Senior Project Manager
Full Job Posting
Your Opportunity:
We’re looking for a Senior Project Manager who brings clarity, momentum, and results to complex initiatives. In this role, you’ll help shape how assisted living and continuing care services operate across Alberta by leading projects that connect programs across multiple sites, teams, and partners. You’ll work closely with operational leaders, clinicians, and corporate experts to turn priorities into action, guide teams through change, and keep everyone aligned as work progresses. This isn’t a behind the scenes PM role - you’ll facilitate conversations, navigate competing priorities, and help people adapt to new ways of working. You’ll use digital tools, project tracking platforms, and operational data to plan, monitor, and deliver complex initiatives and support informed decision making. If you build trust quickly, communicate clearly, and stay steady when things get complicated, you’ll thrive here. Most importantly, you’ll contribute to projects that directly improve how residents, families, and care teams experience continuing care every day. This position is eligible to work anywhere in Alberta.
Description:
The Senior Project Manager leads key initiatives that enhance continuing care services across Alberta, contributing to Assisted Living Alberta’s commitment to improving how residents, families, and caregivers experience care. Reporting to the Executive Director, Business and Clinical Support, this role manages complex, provincial program, multi site projects focused on workflow optimization, service delivery improvements, and coordination with contracted providers and corporate partners. The Senior Project Manager works with leaders, clinicians, and frontline teams to scope projects, guide change, support implementation, and resolve issues. They bring structure to operational challenges, facilitate productive discussions, and translate data and stakeholder input into clear, practical recommendations. This role suits someone who connects well with others, communicates with clarity, and stays calm and focused while helping teams navigate change.
