Job Summary: The Delivery Manager - Integration supports the Project Integration Lead with the integrated delivery of the Project by improving coordination across work packages and functional disciplines. The role focuses on supporting visibility of cross-package dependencies, supporting alignment of delivery sequencing and key milestones, and facilitating coordination where Project decisions affect multiple areas of delivery, as directed by Metrolinx.

The role focuses on supporting alignment across those functions and work packages where dependencies and delivery sequencing intersect to achieve best-for-project outcomes, in alignment with Metrolinx direction.

The Delivery Manager - Integration will report to, and will operate under, the supervision and direction of the OLDP Project Integration Lead, and support integrated delivery of the Project through the following objectives:

Support Metrolinx in strengthening cross-contract schedule alignment by supporting coordination between delivery teams and Project Controls to review key dependencies, align milestone assumptions, and develop coordinated mitigation strategies where schedule conflicts arise.

Support improvement of visibility of cross-package dependencies by identifying and maintaining awareness of critical interdependencies between contracts that may affect infrastructure readiness, installation sequencing, or delivery milestones.

Work with the Handover Manager and support Metrolinx in coordinating contractor handovers by assisting in the alignment of readiness requirements, sequencing, and transition milestones between delivery packages to ensure downstream activities can proceed as planned.

Work with the Project Interface Manager and support Metrolinx in improvement of project-level visibility of integration risks by maintaining awareness of issues that span multiple contracts or functions and ensuring these are appropriately communicated to project leadership.

Major Responsibilities:

Work with the Project Interface Manager, Project Assurance Manager and Project Handover Manager to deliver best for project outcomes.

Identify areas for process efficiencies and work with the Technical Director and Project Integration Lead to implement improvements if necessary.

Maintain visibility of cross-package dependencies across the Project, identifying where infrastructure readiness, construction sequencing, or installation activities intersect between contracts.

Identify and highlight interface and integration risks to management by identifying cross-work-package technical, and schedule dependencies that could impact delivery. Facilitate timely reporting and escalation of emerging risks to Project leadership to support informed decision-making and mitigation planning.

Support Construction with the coordination of shared site access and construction logistics where construction sequencing, site access, or logistics arrangements affect multiple contractors or work packages.

Support Project Controls by providing technical and execution insight to improve schedule integration, scenario planning, and mitigation development across work packages

Work with the Project Interface Manager, and support Technical Coordination across work packages by providing a project-level perspective on technical interfaces incorporating delivery sequencing and handover milestones to contribute to alignment and minimize downstream risks.
