Signaling Project Manager in Toronto

You didn't get into this to manage one piece of a project. You got into it to change how the world gets built. At Accenture Construct, that's the job. You'll help deliver the data centers, power grids, rail networks, factories and public infrastructure that keep communities moving — smarter, safer and more sustainably.

You'll work alongside people who think big and act bold: project managers, engineers, technologists and strategists who pair real-world delivery with AI. And you won't be handed a slice of it. We take on whole programs, from early strategy through construction and handover, and we stand behind how they land.

The role is delivery oriented and non-design. Responsibilities include:

• Manage schedule, assumptions, risks, and access constraints (white periods, closures).
• Coordinate interfaces with Alstom, GTCS, Onboard, RHPL, NOC/BRC.
• Track IVA actions, Stage Gate success criteria, and governance deliverables.
• Manage and implement the assigned projects from inception through to completion.
• Develop new project or program plans and expectations in consultation with stakeholders.
• Determine and manage the human and material resources required to complete assigned projects successfully.
• Formulate a resource allocation strategy and utilize this to distribute work and budgets.
• Exercise authority in managing the work and control the delivery of the projects per project plans.
• Review and ensure adherence to the overall scope, schedule, and budget.
• Identify risks and entrench mitigation strategies and contingency plans.
• Monitor and report on performance against project requirements, schedule, milestones, budgets, quality measures, and KPIs.
• Evaluate the project's effectiveness by consulting with clients and other stakeholders.
• Establish and deliver progress reports, proposals, and presentations to various audiences.
• Oversee ongoing quality control, participate in quality issue resolution, and manage internal quality control checks for the project.
• Define success criteria and disseminate them to involved parties throughout the project and program life cycle.
• Complete any tasks assigned by Project Management V or higher in an efficient and timely manner.
