4 months ago


Toronto, Canada Infrastructure Ontario Full time

**PURPOSE**

As the mandates and lines of business for Infrastructure Ontario (IO) continue to grow, the IO procurement function, as part of IO’s strategic plan and enterprise risk framework commitments, is seeking to modernize and transform its approach to contract administration across key corporate functions and ultimately in support of all IO’s business lines.

In this newly created role, you will be responsible for establishing, leading, and overseeing IO’s first centralized contract administration function. With the support of IO’s Chief Procurement Officer, and reporting to the Senior Vice President, Procurement, you will act as a the sponsor for IO’s business transformation towards modern, digital requisition and contract administration practices. IO will rely upon your experience in change management strategy to support this evolution away from IO’s current manual process environment. As part of the procurement departmental leadership team, you will contribute to the integration of functions and processes among various groups within IO, lead staff through change, educate and cultivate existing talent, begin the building of a dedicated contract administration team, and have the opportunity to provide impact to the Province of Ontario across a broad set of mandates.

Ultimately, you will join one of the leading public procurement functions globally, whose excellence and depth in commercial strategy, transaction execution, and process design must now be balanced with modernization of internal requisition and purchasing control, better reliance upon data and systems, and more integrated in the management of enterprise risk.

**WHAT YOU WILL DO**:

- Establish requirements and recruiting strategy to build a best-in-class contract administration team, leveraging third-party strategic support as needed to establish the IO Contract Administration function over three years
- Develop all applicable frameworks, guidelines and SOPs, establish such governance and create such educational and reference materials as required to assist in the implementation of a best-in-class centralized contract administration program
- Oversee, lead and develop a change management strategy associated with evolving IO’s contract administration practices, identifying key allies, decision-makers, stakeholders, champions, detractors and influencers.
- Oversee the integration of contract administration practices and oversight with leadership from IO’s Information Technology, Procurement, Legal Services, Enterprise Risk Management, Program Management, Corporate Finance, Internal Audit and Strategy & Insights functions, committing to the enhancement of IO’s corporate operational efficiency, effectiveness and capabilities at pace with its growing business lines
- Be an active participant in team leadership of Procurement and Program Management, identifying areas of development for all staff within the division with emphasis on contract administration staff

**WHAT YOU WILL BRING**:

- A university degree in business administration, technology, or law or relevant years of experience
- Experience in leading or playing key roles in business process transformation, business process optimization, and/or the selection of transformational systems, with demonstrated understanding of change management
- A supply chain management designation is an asset but not required
- Progressive experience in a centralized function with knowledge of Best Practices
- Demonstrated experience tracking KPI’s and negotiating with vendors
- Procurement execution experience is an asset but not required
- Experience with vendor performance programs is an asset

**WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU**:

- Commitment to creating a diverse, equitable and inclusive culture that promotes a sense of belonging and represents and reflects the needs of the communities we serve.
- A flexible, hybrid work approach that allows colleagues to find balance between their professional and personal lives and making the most of the benefits of working remotely and purpose-driven in-person collaboration opportunities.
- A defined contribution pension plan, where IO contributes the equivalent of 5% of a full-time employee’s annual salary, with an option for IO to match an additional 2.5% contribution made by the employee. IO also offers a Group Retirement Savings Plan and Group Tax Free Savings Account, designed to help IO colleagues plan and save for their future.
- A comprehensive package that covers health, dental, vision, out-of-country care, paramedical services, and more.
- A pregnancy and parental leave program that offers expecting, eligible employees a top-up to 93% of their annual base salary for 31 weeks, and our parental leave program offers eligible employees a top-up to 93% of their annual base salary for 15 weeks.
- Access to our $2,500 Healthcare Spending Account to top up expenses not covered in the benefits program and a Lifestyle Account that expands the eligibi
