About the Role

The RF Operations PMO team plays a vital role in keeping TELUS' network of 15,000 wireless sites running at peak performance across the country. We coordinate maintenance, repairs, and upgrades while partnering with field teams, vendor contractors, and the newly established Terrion entity. This role offers an opportunity to make a tangible impact on Canada's digital infrastructure while working with a leader who values development as much as results.

Responsibilities

  • Manage and forecast an annual budget across both capital and operational portfolios.
  • Coordinate with field teams and partner with vendor contractors across Quebec, Ontario, and Manitoba to schedule and execute maintenance, repair, and upgrade work at wireless sites.
  • Prioritize and action high-impact projects from a larger portfolio of opportunities, balancing urgent reactive needs with strategic proactive initiatives.
  • Track financial performance on a monthly and quarterly basis, identifying risks early and developing mitigation plans to absorb unplanned costs.
  • Collaborate with the implementation team, Terrion entity, and other key stakeholders to resolve site maintenance responsibilities and ensure seamless network operations.
  • Analyze historical spend data to identify patterns and opportunities, such as replacing frequently failing equipment rather than continuing costly repairs.
  • Communicate in French and English with internal team members, vendors, and partners across Eastern Canada to ensure effective coordination and execution.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Accounting or related fields.
  • 5+ years of project management experience with demonstrated success managing budgets in the range of $5-15 million annually.
  • 3+ years of financial management experience including forecasting, variance tracking, and budget planning.
  • Fluency in French and English to effectively communicate with team members, vendors, and partners across Quebec, Ontario, and Manitoba.
  • Proven ability to forecast annual spend based on both known commitments and emerging circumstances.
  • Strong attention to detail with the ability to track multiple projects and financial commitments simultaneously.
  • Strategic mindset focused on continuous improvement and shifting from reactive to proactive problem-solving.
  • Experience collaborating across multiple teams and building effective partnerships with internal and external stakeholders.
  • Intermediate knowledge of English is required for regular interaction with external and internal parties due to the national scope of the position.
