Program Manager information

What are program managers?

Program managers are professionals responsible for overseeing multiple related projects within an organization, ensuring they align with strategic goals and deliver expected outcomes. They coordinate the efforts of project managers, manage resources, set priorities, and address risks and issues that arise across the program. Unlike project managers who focus on individual projects, program managers take a broader view, ensuring that all projects within a program work together effectively to achieve long-term business objectives.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Program Manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Program Manager, you need strong project management skills, strategic planning abilities, and a relevant degree, often supported by certifications like PMP or Agile. Familiarity with tools such as Microsoft Project, Jira, or Asana is essential for tracking progress and managing resources. Exceptional communication, leadership, and problem-solving skills help you motivate teams and navigate complex stakeholder environments. These competencies ensure that programs are delivered on time, within scope, and aligned with organizational goals.

What are some common challenges Program Managers face when coordinating cross-functional teams?

Program Managers often encounter challenges such as aligning priorities across diverse teams, managing conflicting stakeholder expectations, and ensuring clear communication among departments with different workflows. Navigating these challenges requires strong negotiation and problem-solving skills, as well as the ability to build consensus and foster collaboration. Successful Program Managers proactively establish regular check-ins, promote transparency, and adapt strategies to keep projects on track and maintain team engagement.

What Is the Job of a Program Manager?

The job of a program manager is to plan, organize, and coordinate management programs or external programs for a business or institution. As a program manager, your duties vary depending on the type of organization for which you work, but many of the responsibilities for this role are similar or overlap. You typically supervise numerous associates and analysts who help prepare data and assessments about current programming and how it can be improved. You help to implement new programs for employees or customers and promote them through HR or outreach coordinators and marketing professionals. You also assess individual projects and how they interact with one another.

Job description

As our newest Assistant Site Superintendent, you'll support the Superintendent to ensure that every project is executed with precision and excellence. Under the direction of the Site Superintendent, you'll be the eyes and ears out on the site, ensuring our team and trade partners are working to specifications and staying on schedule.


You'll travel for work to locations throughout BC, the Yukon and occasionally the Northwest Territories. Our crews typically work 21/7 rotations, travel in and out of various locations, work 10-hour shifts on average. Perks include well-maintained crew housing, flights to and from site from the nearest airport, and a generous Living Out Allowance.


Your day-to-day includes supervising and coordinating field activities - checking in with your team leads, inspecting the progress, and reporting any issues/concerns to the Site Superintendent. You'll participate in meetings with your team and trade partners to ensure alignment on goals for the day and tackle any outstanding items from the previous day. Updating the Superintendent throughout the day and assisting with any scheduling adjustments, daily reports or safety documentation requirements are additional responsibilities.


Is this the right role for you? Here's how you'll know you've been successful in the first 6 months:

  • Field Performance: You're the point person reviewing site work, including subcontractor activities, and assuring workmanship meets the project quality standards and stays on schedule.
  • Safety as Priority: You promote safety on site and set an example. Everyone is adhering to our program and record keeping requirements because you've set the standard.
  • Scheduling: You've proven yourself to be organized and detail-oriented, and our Site Superintendent relies on you to schedule concrete work and testing, and schedule and supervise other disciplines.
  • Team Mentorship: You assist the Superintendent in driving the site team to work cohesively, aligning efforts toward productivity milestones and maintaining motivation throughout the project's lifecycle.
  • Proactive Problem Solving: When issues/conflicts arise, you're ready to step in with your quick thinking and consistently propose resolutions that works for everyone.


A little about Wildstone. We're family-owned and operated, we take on projects in some of the most remote, challenging and exciting locations in western and northern Canada, and our goal is to always make a positive impact through community involvement where we work.


We take care of our teams with benefits that include health/dental/vision, RRSP matching, Employee and Family Assistance Programs, and an Employee Recognition and Rewards Program.


What we're looking for:

  • Professional Experience: You bring 5+ years of construction experience to the table with at least two years in a supervisory role.
  • Education/Qualifications:
    You hold aJourneyperson certificate or equivalent industry related experience and/or education.
  • Communication: Whether it's interacting with our crew or trade partners or clarifying details with the project team, you communicate with confidence and clarity.
  • Technology: You're proficient with MS Office 365 and are familiar with Procore and Outbuild scheduling software, and you've used Salus or a similar safety program.
  • Certifications:You already hold or are willing to obtain Leadership for Safety Excellence, Workplace Investigation Basics, Fall protection, WHMIS 2015, Elevated Work Platform, and Level 1 First Aid.


Ready to take your expertise to the next level and make an impact on our projects?We want to hear from you!
