  • Manage relationships with subcontractors as it relates to SW development activities
  • Drive consistency across the Navblue Software Key Performance Indicators (KPI)
  • Create, implement and manage the process for software subcontracting
  • Translate onboarding and offboarding requirements to subcontractors
  • Empower agile teams to build solutions using best practices and NAVBLUE standards
  • Create business cases to justify continuous improvement projects as they pertain to subcontracted SW development
  • Support additional needs as directed by NAVBLUE management

Education:

  • Successful completion of a Bachelor's Degree in a technical field

  • Additional business education is an asset

Experience:

  • Minimum 10 years experience in a combination of technical and/or supplier management fields

  • Deep understanding of business and financial principles

  • Experience managing subcontractor relationships

  • Experience creating and controlling budgets

Knowledge, Skills, Demonstrated Capabilities & Competencies:

  • Strong leadership and communication skills

  • Strong ability to plan, organize, and lead initiatives

  • Understanding of DevOps culture and principles, an asset

  • Excellent organizational and time management skills

  • Experience creating and monitoring KPIs to provide measurement and direction to teams

  • Self-motivated and able to learn quickly

This job requires an awareness of any potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, as the foundation for the Company's success, reputation and sustainable growth.
