Senior Project Manager in Québec

Join nesto — a Deloitte Fast 50 company evolving alongside Canada’s top tech innovators and disrupting a 2.1 Trillion-dollar mortgage industry by building the mortgage ecosystem of the future.

About Nesto and Nesto Cloud

Nesto is a leading Canadian fintech company founded in Montreal in 2018. Our core mission is to offer a positive, empowering, and transparent property financing experience, simplified from start to finish. We initially started as a digital broker, aiming to make the complex mortgage process more transparent through technology. We quickly evolved to build Canada’s leading online mortgage lending direct-to-consumer platform, where our qualified mortgage experts are supported by advanced technology.

You will be working on Nesto Cloud, Canada’s most advanced cloud platform, delivering end-to-end technology solutions for lenders in the digital age.

Why we are hiring

We deliver on our mission by empowering our partners to improve and streamline their mortgage lending operations with the nesto Mortgage Cloud. To drive the execution of our upcoming projects, we are growing our Project Management team.

Work location, time zone, and availability

We welcome applications from candidates across Canada, with a strong preference for those located in the Eastern Time Zone (EST). While this is a remote-first opportunity, the core working hours follow a strict schedule aligned with our client’s 9–5 EST requirements. Additionally, you will travel to client sites roughly once per month for 2+ days.

What Success In This Role Looks Like

As a Senior Project Manager on nesto’s B2B delivery team, you’ll lead large, multi-stream SaaS implementation programs for our financial-institution partners. This role combines discovery and implementation ownership, from early requirements through delivery, testing, and post-launch stabilization.

In order to be successful:

• You take immediate ownership and drive progress from day one.
• You proactively organize work and bring structure where processes do not exist.
• You identify and help implement foundational standards and PM practices.
• You ramp up quickly on our SaaS delivery model; enterprise SaaS delivery experience is a must.
• You demonstrate strong learning agility by absorbing a large amount of new information quickly.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Own the end-to-end delivery of enterprise client implementations, from discovery through deployment and post-launch transition.
• Facilitate discovery workshops alongside our SMEs and requirements sessions to define scope, dependencies, and timelines.
• Translate business and technical requirements into actionable delivery plans using tools such as Jira and Confluence.
• Coordinate with internal teams (Product, Engineering, QA, Operations) and external vendors to drive progress and resolve blockers.
• Manage project budgets, schedules, and dependencies across multiple workstreams.
• Provide clear, consistent communication to client and internal stakeholders.
• Track project health and proactively identify delivery risks, capacity constraints, and cross-program dependencies.
• Partner with other PMs to align workstreams across major accounts.
• Contribute to the evolution of nesto’s delivery framework.

Who We Are Looking For

• 8+ years of experience in project management, with at least 3 years delivering B2B enterprise SaaS.
• Proven ability to manage both discovery and implementation phases of large, multi-stakeholder programs.
• Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills.
• Comfortable managing complex, ambiguous programs with many moving parts.
• Advanced organizational skills and an ability to drive alignment across diverse teams.
• Proficiency in project management tools such as Jira, Confluence, Smartsheet, or similar.
• Knowledge of Agile or hybrid delivery models.

Strongly Preferred But Not a Must

• Project management credentials & methods: PMP and Certified ScrumMaster (CSM).
• Experience working with financial institutions, mortgage or lending technology.

You shouldn’t apply if

• Your experience is strictly internal.
• You need a predefined playbook to succeed.
• You lack "Startup or Scaleup Agility".
• You are a "morning person" only by choice.
• You are not willing to travel.

Interview Process

• Recruiter Screen – 30 minutes
• Discovery Call with our Director, PMO – 30 minutes
• Take-home Assignment followed by a Presentation and Q&A – 60 minutes
• Final Non-Technical Interview with two additional stakeholders – 60 minutes

What We Offer

• Comprehensive Health Coverage: Top-tier Extended Health, Dental, and Vision coverage.
• Health & Wellness Spending Account: A $1,500 combined annual flex fund.
• Generous Paid Time Off: 4 weeks of vacation plus 8 personal floater days.
• Retirement Savings: Access to a Group RRSP/DPSP plan.
• Telemedicine Services via Dialogue.
• Family Support: Parental Leave Top-Up Programs.
• Flexible Work: The possibility to work fully remote or from one of our offices.
