Ottawa, Canada Assent Compliance Inc. Full time

Assent is the supply chain sustainability management solution for the world’s most responsible, sustainability-focused complex manufacturers. The #1 business risk for complex manufacturers is hidden. Most supply chains were never built with sustainability in mind, and most manufacturers do not have deep visibility into their supply chain risks while outsourcing the majority of their production. Shaped by regulatory experts, customers and suppliers, Assent is the foundation manufacturers need for cross-enterprise sustainability. At Assent, your work will help bring transparency, sustainability, and fairness to the global community.

We’re one of the fastest-growing technology companies - from $5 million to $50 million ARR in under five years As the global leader in supply chain sustainability management, we provide transparency into the supply chains of some of the world's largest and most successful companies, including 75 percent of Fortune 500 companies. In our most recent funding round, we raised $350 Million USD in funding led by Vista Equity Partners. This funding will allow us to continue to scale with purpose, and add exceptional talent to our already remarkable team. Assent is the first North American software company to achieve both B Corporation Certification and Advanced Status with United Nations Global Compact. This reflects our deep commitment to embed sustainability not only across our organization, but as part of how we drive positive impacts for our communities and the customers we serve.

The Senior Project Manager will manage large, multi-faceted, complex projects in support of Assent’s critical business systems, as well as multiple projects concurrently and be capable of managing expectations and stakeholder interests that span several areas. This role plans and oversees the daily activities of each project, the completion of project tasks, and monitors the adherence to project management process and project timelines. The Senior Project Manager will exhibit high skill in leadership, general management, stakeholder relationship management, risk management, problem resolution, and a proactive attitude towards operations improvement, deadline adherence, and project milestone delivery. This position will work closely with Assent’s various business units and be familiar with both waterfall and agile project delivery methodologies.

  • Define project scope, goals, and deliverables that support business objectives in collaboration with the senior leadership team and internal stakeholders;
  • Develop full-scale project plans and schedules with project timelines and milestones using appropriate tools, and oversee completion and progress to plan;
  • Estimate the resources and participants required to achieve project goals;
  • Make recommendations on project prioritization based on data weighing technical effort, user impact, Assent value and other relevant factors;
  • Ensure proper risk management by documenting all risks and employing an effective mitigation strategy;
  • Act as the primary liaison between project teams and SMEs, and maintaining regular communications with vested stakeholders to ensure necessary steps are taken to resolve challenges and progress objectives;
Qualifications
  • Experience in implementing projects using waterfall, agile, or hybrid methodologies.
  • Experience in facilitating and delivering change on medium-to-large scale implementations.
  • PMP Certification, ScrumMaster, or equivalent would be considered an asset;
  • 5-10years as a Project Manager
  • You have superb interpersonal skills - you are able to establish cross-functional relationships in a collaborative, team-oriented environment with a diverse group of stakeholders including Assent’s Leadership team and employees, clients, and vendors;
  • Strong leadership/decision-making and creative problem-solving skills;
  • Excellent influencing and negotiation skills, and demonstrate a high degree of professionalism;
  • You understand and advocate for the value of documentation and process;
  • You are proactive about communicating and anticipate, understand, and respond to the needs of others - you are always thinking about how you can best support them;
  • Highly organized with the ability to multi-task and manage both short-term projects on tight timelines and to manage ongoing long-term strategies;
