Job Description
Who we are:
Financeit is a point-of-sale financing provider serving some of the largest home improvement and retail organizations in Canada.
Our platform helps businesses close more sales by offering customers affordable monthly payment options for their next big home improvement, vehicle or retail purchase.
We are small enough that you can make an impact within the company and large enough to make an impact in the market.
Financeit is a company where collaboration, inclusivity, fairness, and respect aren't just ideas that get talked about, but are part of who we are. If such a workplace intrigues you, we hope you'll join us.
About the role:
Reporting to the Project Management Office, the Senior Project Manager is a high-impact leadership role responsible for driving the execution of the organization's most complex, multi-million dollar strategic initiatives. You won't just manage tasks; you will act as a strategic partner to executive leadership, navigating high-stakes environments and cross-functional dependencies to deliver transformational change.
The successful candidate is a seasoned leader who blends rigorous project discipline with a deep understanding of business strategy, advanced analytics, and organizational change management.
What you'll do:
- Drive Strategic Delivery: Lead the full lifecycle of high-priority strategic projects, ensuring every initiative delivers measurable ROI and aligns with long-term business case objectives (scope, budget, and quality)
- Influence \& Orchestrate: Work across business units to build high-level consensus, manage complex stakeholder ecosystems, and proactively resolve friction points between competing priorities
- Architect Governance: Design and implement robust project governance frameworks, including sophisticated reporting structures, communication cadences, and change management strategies for enterprise-wide initiatives
- Maximize Business Realization: Establish rigorous value-realization frameworks and advanced KPIs that connect project outputs to corporate strategy. You will lead regular impact-syncs to ensure the project team and executive sponsors are aligned on how deliverables drive bottom-line growth, efficiency, or competitive advantage, moving beyond "on-time delivery" to "on-value delivery."
- Executive Stewardship: A proven ability to act as a strategic partner to executive sponsors; you are comfortable navigating high-level stakeholders, providing data-backed recommendations, and respectfully challenging assumptions to ensure project integrity and strategic alignment
- Mentor \& Standardize: Contribute to the evolution of PMO methodologies and processes, mentoring junior project managers and championing best practices across the organization
Requirements
- 8-10\+ years of progressive project management experience, with a proven track record of delivering enterprise-scale initiatives
- Bachelor's Degree required
- PMP, nice to have
- Deep mastery of PMBOK standards and expert-level fluency in both Waterfall and Agile (Scrum/Kanban) methodologies
- A strong commercial mindset with an intuitive grasp of how high-impact project work fuels our long-term vision. We are looking for a leader who is excited to 'double down' on our project portfolio and can translate our corporate roadmap into clear, actionable project success
- Exceptional ability to craft and deliver compelling executive-level presentations that distill complex data into actionable insights
- Proven ability to navigate ambiguity, negotiate resources in a matrixed environment, and lead teams through high-pressure situations
- Highly organized and detail-oriented with the ability to manage multiple high-stakes portfolios simultaneously without losing sight of the "big picture."
