Senior IT Project Manager, RF Operations PMO - Eastern Canada
Our team and what we'll accomplish together
In today's world, Canadians rely on their mobile devices for everything: from navigating city streets to staying connected with loved ones, managing work on the go, and accessing critical services. Our 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're the problem-solvers and strategic thinkers who ensure millions of customers experience Canada's leading wireless coverage every single day. We coordinate maintenance, repairs, and upgrades while partnering with field teams, vendor contractors, and the newly established Terrion entity. We believe in staying calm under pressure and supporting each other's growth. If you're ready to make a tangible impact on Canada's digital infrastructure while working with a leader who values your development as much as results, this is your opportunity.

- 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
