Program Manager Jobs in Manitoba (NOW HIRING)

Born in the Prairies, now part of a worldwide network, Skip is a tech company with an entrepreneurial spirit and the drive to be the best. We're a people-first, collaborative company with a fun, dynamic and innovative environment. Our vision is to empower everyday convenience. Whether it's a Friday-night feast, a post-gym poke bowl, grabbing some groceries or sunscreen, our tech platform connects tens of millions of customers with hundreds of thousands of restaurant, grocery and convenience partners across the globe.

This is a brilliant opportunity to help build and deliver a new, world-class Customer Services (CS) operation focused on our home-market outsourced contact centers.

As the Program Manager for the Canadian Market CS Portfolio, you will drive the delivery calendar, roadmaps, and supporting PMO governance. You will act as a critical bridge-partnering closely with Product, Tech, Data, WFM, Finance, and Operations to optimize internal delivery and enable effective, data-driven decision-making. Working alongside the Head of Experience, you will also play a key role in shaping strategic planning, business cases, and future team organization.

This portfolio is large, varied, and fast-paced. We are looking for a proactive self-starter who can seamlessly connect the dots and see the bigger picture, while still enjoying getting stuck into the operational details. If you want a rewarding role where you can truly influence our strategic direction and be at the heart of building a world-class CS proposition, this is it.
