About The Position

Shift Collab is seeking a senior contract Project Manager to support its growth phase, specifically focusing on large-scale B2B partnerships that require significant implementation efforts. This new role is designed to manage complex, time-sensitive implementations across multiple workstreams, including technical builds, clinical operations, recruitment, and process design, without placing the entire burden on the COO. The engagement is part-time, 20 hours per week, from June 1 to November 30, 2026. The ideal candidate will have direct experience managing large-scale implementations in healthcare, health benefits, or health insurance programs.

Requirements

7 to 10+ years in project or program management, with significant time leading large-scale implementations.
Direct, hands-on experience managing implementations in healthcare, health benefits, or insurance.
PMP or equivalent project management certification required.
Comfortable navigating complex, multi-stakeholder environments while managing internal teams and external enterprise partners simultaneously.
Aptitude and skillset to act independently once onboarded and clear on the job to be done.
Organized without being rigid; brings structure, not bureaucracy.
Communicates clearly across different audiences, from clinical to technical to executive.

Nice To Haves

A technical skillset to leverage tools like Claude, Miro, Coda, and Zapier is preferred.
University degree in business, healthcare administration, or a related field preferred.
Being bilingual in English and French is an asset.

Responsibilities

Translate partnership agreements into a concrete project plan with clear milestones, dependencies, and owners.
Define scope and success metrics for each workstream.
Build and maintain the execution roadmap across technical, clinical, and operational tracks.
Serve as the central coordination point across internal teams (Clinical, Care, Marketing, Ops) and external enterprise partners.
Run project meetings, own the agenda, and close action items.
Keep roles, responsibilities, and expectations clear across all parties — internally and externally.
Identify and move through blockers without waiting to be asked.
Drive day-to-day progress and hold workstreams accountable.
Maintain momentum independently — this role does not require heavy oversight.
Flag risks early with a recommendation, not just a problem.
Run a consistent project cadence (weekly updates, stakeholder check-ins).
Provide clear, concise progress reporting to the COO.
Escalate issues early with context and a proposed path forward.
Map, scope, and implement processes to serve external partners and organize internal teams.
Build repeatable playbooks for how we run enterprise implementations and reporting.
