PRIMARY FUNCTION
Reporting within the Project Management Office (PMO), the Project Coordinator provides oversight and delivery coordination support for the Technology Services workstream in the CIO portfolio. You will help keep Technology Services–supported projects organized and moving forward by coordinating schedules and meetings, maintaining project documentation (actions, decisions, risks/issues/dependencies), and supporting clear communication between technical teams, vendors, and operational interest holders. The portfolio may include initiatives such as network switch replacements, preventative maintenance programs for large volumes of end-user devices, and coordination of technology activities that align with or support related projects (e.g., construction projects with technology requirements). This is a coordination and oversight role—hands-on technical build/configuration is not required.

- Support the initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, and closing of projects and initiatives led by the PMO

- Coordinate project-related meetings, workshops, and events
- Support coordination and communication with project interest holders
- Assist with drafting and distributing project-related communications and documentation
Perform other project and department-related duties as assigned
Note: The above responsibilities are representative and are not intended to be all-inclusive.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
- Completion of a university degree or equivalent combination of education and experience
- CAPM certification considered an asset
- 1–3 years of relevant project coordination or project support experience
- Experience supporting technology services initiatives (e.g., devices/hardware, networking, infrastructure, or technology-enabled operational projects) in healthcare or similarly complex environments is preferred
- Strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify and escalate risks, issues, and dependencies
- Effective written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to translate project updates for technical and non-technical audiences
- Strong relationship management skills, with the ability to work collaboratively with technical teams, vendors, and diverse interest holder groups
- Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to coordinate complex project activities, manage competing priorities, and maintain clear, accurate documentation and schedules
- Experience using project and portfolio management tools (e.g., Microsoft Project, Excel, Teams/SharePoint, or similar) for tracking, scheduling, and reporting
- Comfortable working with basic technology concepts and terminology (e.g., end-user devices, peripherals, networking/connectivity) to support coordination; not a hands-on technical build role
