Job description

This is a remote position.

Why this role, why now

INNOOVA is a Montreal-based boutique consulting firm founded in 2019 and the only certified Workday partner headquartered in Canada. We deliver end-to-end HRIS implementations and transformations across the public sector, healthcare, finance, technology, and education. Our team offers the rigour of a recognized firm without the weight of large corporate structures which means faster decisions, direct impact, and real ownership from day one.


Our delivery practice is growing fast. Today, every project passes through a single Project Manager, and the pipeline has outpaced that capacity. We are building the next generation of our PMO, and this hire is the cornerstone. You will own project delivery across our Workday implementations and contribute to standardizing how INNOOVA executes. This is not a coordination role. This is someone who leads, mediates, mobilizes, and transforms not just someone who tracks a plan. Less bureaucracy, more impact.


Your day-to-day impact

  • Lead Workday implementation projects end to end from mobilization and stakeholder planning through testing coordination, go-live, and hypercare.
  • Drive client-facing project governance: status meetings, steering committees, risk and issue management, escalation resolution, and executive reporting.
  • Coordinate internal delivery teams across concurrent mandates, managing timelines, dependencies, and deliverable quality in a matrix structure.
  • Contribute to proposals and pre-sales activities building project plans, presenting to prospective clients, and shaping delivery approaches.
  • Build INNOOVA's delivery DNA: develop reusable accelerators, project templates, and standards that raise the bar for how we execute across all platforms.
  • Serve as the internal ambassador for delivery excellence coaching, flagging risks early, and keeping both client and team aligned throughout the project lifecycle.


Requirements

The profile we are looking for 60% advisor · 40% expert

What matters most (60%) advisory & delivery leadership

  • A natural mediator: you manage client expectations and internal team dynamics with equal skill, and you de-escalate without losing momentum.
  • High emotional intelligence: you read the room, adapt your communication style, and earn trust quickly with clients, consultants, and leadership alike.
  • Comfort with ambiguity: you thrive in fast-moving, unstructured environments where priorities shift, and you help create structure where there is none.
  • Demonstrated track record of delivering HRIS or IT projects end to end in an external consulting context managing multiple clients, cultures, and stakeholder environments simultaneously.
  • Strong communicator in French and English applied case by case based on client needs.

What we also expect (40%) project delivery fundamentals

  • Solid command of project delivery lifecycle phases mobilization, planning, design, build, test, deploy, hypercare and the ability to keep a team moving through each one.
  • Experience managing project plans, schedules, and risk logs across concurrent mandates; enough functional context to ask smart questions and hold delivery teams accountable.
  • Comfort reading the technical landscape without needing to configure it you don't need to be an HRIS specialist, but you understand the environment your team operates in.
  • PMP/PMI certification an asset.
  • Workday Engagement Manager certification an asset; may be supported by INNOOVA for the right candidate.

Our must-haves

  • Have led HRIS, Finance or IT projects delivered end to end in an external client-facing consulting context.
