Position Description

The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) is widely recognized as one of the world's leading children's hospitals ' a pioneer in healthcare, research, education, and training. Building on our rich history and track record, as we look to the future, SickKids requires a significant investment in facilities equipment and information technology to meet the changing needs of our patients and families and maintain the level of service for which we are globally recognized.

In 2015, SickKids launched Project Horizon, a long-term plan for the renewal of the SickKids campus and the foundation for an integrated and seamless paediatric healthcare system. Project Horizon is a multi-year phased redevelopment project to transform the delivery of paediatric care, meet growth needs and replace aging, outdated infrastructure. The goal of Project Horizon is to ensure that SickKids can continue to deliver top quality, specialized paediatric care, through investing in the facilities and technology required to achieve this important mandate.
In addition to the already completed Patient Support Centre (PSC), Project Horizon consists of an offsite Ambulatory Care Tower (ACT), a new Critical Care Tower (CCT) that will be developed on the existing SickKids main campus (collectively the 'New Facilities'), and a series of renovations, infrastructure, and demolition projects within existing SickKids facilities (collectively the 'Early Works').
