Working at Alberta Blue Cross® means having a career where you’ll be recognized for your contributions. We value diversity, encourage our employees to maintain a healthy work-life balance and provide opportunities for career growth.

**OVERVIEW**:
As Alberta Blue Cross’s® next Strategy & Integrated Planning Manager, you will report to the Director of Corporate Strategic Initiatives. This small, but mighty team drives strategy development, enterprise alignment and integration of plans to ensure achievement of our Blue for Life Vision and strategic ambitions.

You will act as a trusted advisor, embed market intelligence in strategy and planning processes, and work in both an individual and team setting to achieve the stated goals.

Your critical thinking skills are unparalleled, and you act like a sponge - soaking up information and making quick sense of it. You are an excellent communicator, but an even better listener. You are naturally inquisitive and like to keep up with what is happening in the world, the industry and within your domain of expertise. You are willing to roll up your sleeves and do the hard work to keep everything organized, aligned and moving forward to the benefit of customers, communities and the organization as a whole.

If this sounds like you, then we can’t wait to meet you

- Acting as a thought leader, demonstrating leadership and agility through influence and collaboration.
- Demonstrating accountability and tenacity for strategic planning leadership and success.

**WHAT YOU WILL HAVE**:

- Superior project management skills; business portfolio management experience is considered an asset.
- Exceptional communication (verbal, written, presentation) skills with a particular flair for business storytelling and making complex ideas understandable.
