Toronto, Ontario, Canada Stantec Consulting International Ltd. Full time

Consultant, Operational Readiness - ( 250000HM )

Description

We are trusted advisors providing objective insight and facilitated solutions for successful project outcomes. Our capital planning and operational readiness and transition planning team of experts work with clients to strategize, plan, and deliver capital projects that help them achieve their organization's objectives.

Our clients are undergoing organizational change that creates uncertainty and risk. Client Solutions translates our client's change strategy into a project implementation plan, bringing insight and offering solutions so they make informed decisions that lead to successful project outcomes.

Our team believes that project success is the sum of two parts – an operationally ready facility and an operationally ready organization. Combining project management best practices and change management principles, we are uniquely positioned to help clients succeed with both.

Join a smart, creative, and inspired team who are passionate to bring transformational project solutions to life. Gain the opportunity to collaborate with individuals with diverse backgrounds, talents, and expertise across Stantec's 31,000 employees working in over 450 locations across 6 continents.

  • Assist with the preparation and conducting of facilitated planning sessions with clients, project teams, and stakeholders to ensure alignment on project objectives and the path forward.
  • Assess project performance by conducting review sessions with clients, project consultants, advisors, and contractors against project plans and prepare performance reports to clients.
  • Assist with the identification of key issues and risks to the project outcome.
  • Revise and update project planning documents in all stages of the project.
  • Prepare written reports and participate in verbal presentations to clients.
  • Support and assist with development of proposal responses and promotional materials.
  • Contribute to Client Solutions' business goals through participation in group planning and brainstorming sessions.
