At ATB, we exist to make it possible for our clients, team members and communities. Our purpose is more than aspirational. It's a real commitment we live every day through our values (what we call the ATB ID).
Life at ATB is about more than work. In fact, we’re consistently recognized as one of Canada's top employers thanks to our high-care, high-performance culture, upheld by the three commitments we make to our team members:
Impact in action: No matter where you are in the organization, you're empowered to make an impact in the lives of our clients and communities.
Thrive together: We want you—the unique, authentic you—to feel safe and celebrated at work. We're on a continuous journey to build the most flexible and inclusive programs.
Ready for tomorrow: We want to enable your success through interesting and challenging work, performance enablement, and learning and development.
About the Role
As ATB’s next Project Delivery Manager within People Places & Spaces (PP&S), you will report to the Senior Manager, Project Delivery. This hands-on role is essential in bringing our projects to life by managing all aspects of project execution, from scope and timelines to budgets. Your goal will be to ensure each project delivers exceptional value and aligns with our strategic objectives.
In this dynamic role, you will oversee project management efforts from initiation through to close-out, working closely with cross-functional teams to ensure successful outcomes. You will be responsible for maintaining project documentation, updating stakeholders, and measuring project value realization to ensure we meet our objectives and deliver on our promises. Your leadership and proactive approach will be crucial in shaping project success and enhancing the end-user experience.
This position is critical for the seamless delivery of complex projects within PP&S. Your role in hands-on project management and effective cross-functional collaboration will drive the successful realization of our strategic initiatives. By optimizing project outcomes and enhancing end-user experiences, you will help align projects with our broader organizational goals, directly impacting efficiency, engagement, and user satisfaction.
PP&S is ATB’s real estate and facilities business unit and leads: real estate strategy, workplace optimization and experience, spatial design, construction, project management, leasing and subleasing management, facilities management and maintenance, asset management, facility operations, occupational health and safety, and physical security. PP&S oversees ATB’s 1.5 million square feet of space and the team is deeply connected to transforming banking through ATB’s client-facing locations, and leading the way with corporate workplace transformation, both of which bring ATB’s mandate to life and make it possible for Albertans.
