Project Manager - 2 Roles

Pay Rate Range - $72/Hr - $76/Hr

Note - Need profiles with prior banking clients experience.

• Our leading Toronto-based bank is growing its Interactive Services portfolio and has two dynamic Project Manager contract positions open - both reporting to the same manager, offering the same rate and focused on hands-on delivery in a fast-paced, agile environment.
• These roles are perfect for proactive professionals who thrive on tracking progress, managing risks, and driving successful outcomes across technology projects in the financial services sector.

Role 1: Project Coordinator / Portfolio Manager:

• Support the full portfolio by coordinating intake, tracking milestones, managing budgets/forecasts/accruals, preparing performance reports (burn-downs, metrics), and interfacing with executives/stakeholders. You'll participate in Agile ceremonies, handle ad-hoc tasks, and adapt quickly to evolving priorities.

Role 2: Risk-Focused Project Manager / Program Oversight

• Oversee multiple large-scale key projects to proactively identify "yellow flags" - potential risks, issues, pending decisions, and watch items.
• You'll mitigate risks, capture problems, escalate as needed, report findings, probe with targeted questions, and present insights to stakeholders.
• Knowledge of FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) concepts is a strong plus for structured risk prioritization.

Shared Details for Both Roles:

• Contract: 6+ months (high likelihood of extension)
• Rate: $72/hr - $76/Hr
• Team: Interactive Services - technology-driven projects in a collaborative, executive-facing banking environment

Key Skills & Mindset:

• 5-10 years in project coordination, program support, or PM roles (tech and financial services background preferred)
• Strong project tracking, financial management, risk identification/mitigation, stakeholder communication
• JIRA expertise (tracking, reporting, user stories)
• Agile mindset with adaptability to wear multiple hats
• Excellent probing/questioning skills, attention to detail, and proactive attitude

Nice-to-Haves:

• Banking / financial services experience
• Advanced Excel (formulas, pivots), PowerPoint
• SAFe or large-scale Agile exposure
• FMEA knowledge (for Role 2)
