Reporting to the Senior Manager, Operations Performance, you will lead complex, cross-functional initiatives that transform strategic priorities into actionable plans and measurable business outcomes. Partnering closely with senior operational leaders, you will identify opportunities for improvement, solve complex business challenges, and guide initiatives from concept through execution. You will establish program governance, drive delivery excellence, and develop meaningful performance measures while fostering stakeholder alignment, engagement, and accountability. This role combines strategic thinking, operational problem-solving, and program leadership, requiring someone who can effectively navigate between strategy and execution, while influencing outcomes across diverse teams and organizational levels.

Facilitate executive steering committees, working groups and stakeholder sessions, creating alignment and driving decisions. Build executive-level recommendations and presentations that translate complex analysis into clear decisions, actions and next steps. Mobilize teams and drive delivery across organizational boundaries without direct authority. Track outcomes and adapt plans to ensure initiatives deliver sustainable results.

Experience and qualifications:

8–12 years of experience in program/project management, business transformation, management consulting, strategy & execution, operational transformation or advisory roles. Proven experience leading complex, cross-functional initiatives from strategy through implementation. Strong analytical and structured problem-solving skills, with the ability to turn ambiguity into a clear path forward. Experience partnering with senior leaders and influencing across organizational boundaries. Strong program management, facilitation, communication and stakeholder engagement skills. Experience developing business cases, recommendations and executive presentations to support investment and decision-making. Comfortable managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced, complex operational environment. Post-secondary degree or diploma in Business, Operations or a related field.

Assets:

Experience in aviation maintenance, transportation, logistics, or another highly regulated operational environment, partnering with maintenance teams and technical subject matter experts.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
