**Valuing Diversity**:
We value a workplace where diversity, in all its forms, is encouraged and recognized for its contribution to a more creative, rewarding, and productive public service to our broader community.

Valuing diversity challenges is not only to be a public service that reflects the community we serve but also to create a more respectful and productive public service and to be a model for other employers in Nova Scotia.

**About Us**:
Service Nova Scotia and Internal Services (SNSIS) has a team of 1700+ employees working from offices throughout Nova Scotia. Together, we build relationships with every citizen, business, and municipality in Nova Scotia by understanding evolving client needs and balancing these needs with the public good. Service excellence is at the heart of everything we do. As part of our core business, we provide a vast array of services to the citizens and businesses of Nova Scotia. We also provide the services, tools, and supports that enable other government departments and public sector entities to focus on providing quality services.

**About Our Opportunity**:
The Project Manager is accountable for multiple public safety telecommunications projects on a strategic level within the department and horizontal delivery between other government departments and external clients. Projects may include topics such as: new technology implementation, deployment of equipment, software implementation, governance initiatives, contract development/negotiations, and regulatory work, among others.

The Project Manager identifies, defines, and manages overall projects that impact multiple internal and external stakeholders and is responsible for consultation, promotion, budgeting, contract management, communications, and/or development of the overall project and project plans.

The Project Manager may also provide operational support to the emergency operations of the department during major incidents such as forest fires, telecom failures, or major weather events, in support of client agencies and EMO.

- Good strategic thinking
- Developing relationships
- Understanding and navigating process effectively

Public Safety and Field Communications is looking for a senior resource with experience in the public safety field who can lead and deliver strategic projects on behalf of the organization. In this role, you will work closely with the Manager and Director of PSFC on a daily basis, and will be tasked with leading or participating in multiple short and long term, highly strategic projects and initiatives related to public safety radio and data technology. You will work with a wide variety of stakeholders, vendors, regulators, and clients in both the public and private sector to turn vision into reality. No two days will be alike as projects arise and evolve.

Being a successful project manager in this context is not about formal project management principles, but more so about leveraging knowledge, skills, and most importantly, formal and informal relationships to help move the yard stick forward on important initiatives.

You are a strategic thinker with a track record of working through complex problems and challenges, and you excel at converting thought into the written word in developing business cases, strategy, and procedure documents. You are comfortable working with diverse stakeholders and have a knack for explaining complex concepts in simple ways.

**Qualifications and Experience**:
You have a bachelor’s degree in a related field, and eight years related experience.
- You have experience in developing strategy and building formal and informal relationships across organizations.
- You have superior oral and written communication skills.
- You have experience leading project teams or other resources.
- You have background and experience in public safety or emergency management in a Canadian or North American context.
- Familiarity with modern public safety radio communications equipment or systems

Assets:

- Formal project management training such as PMP certification or project management courses, and experience leading projects

We will assess the above qualifications and competencies using one or more of the following tools: written examination, standardized tests, oral presentations, interview(s), and reference checks

**Equivalency**:
**Benefits**:
Based on the employment status and Union agreement, the Government of Nova Scotia offers its employees a wide range of benefits such as Health, Dental, Life Insurance, Pension, General Illness (Short and Long Term), V
