As a global-leading health and well-being provider - encompassing physical, mental and financial health - TELUS Health is improving health outcomes for consumers, patients, healthcare professionals, employers and employees.
As a Project Manager, you'll be the connective tissue that keeps our implementation projects on track.

Own project tracking and reporting-creating and maintaining detailed plans, action logs, risk/issue/dependency (RAID) logs, milestone trackers, and status materials that inform leadership and clients
Facilitate working sessions and team meetings, document decisions and action items, and follow up to ensure accountability
Spot risks and dependencies early and partner with senior leaders on mitigation strategies
Prepare client-facing status updates, deliverable tracklists, meeting materials, and follow-up communications-helping maintain strong client relationships and confidence
Support hands-on delivery activities: plan configuration, eligibility rules, enrollment processes, contributions, data migration, systems testing, interfaces, and operational readiness
Use AI tools and copilots to boost your own productivity-drafting meeting notes, summarizing actions, writing status reports, and handling routine communications more efficiently
Contribute ideas to improve how we deliver, report on progress, and work as a team
You'll manage multiple dependencies across teams, navigate complexity, and create clarity in situations where there are lots of moving pieces.
We improve lives through our technology solutions and foster a culture of innovation that empowers team members to solve complex problems and create remarkable human outcomes in a digital world.
