Sr IT Project Manager Consultant - Oil & Gas - Calgary (Hybrid)
Start Date: September 2025 (Part-time start possible in August)
Overview: On behalf of our oil & gas client located in Calgary, AB, Brainhunter Systems Ltd. is seeking a versatile and collaborative IT Project Manager for an initial 6-month contract to lead a blend of infrastructure and application implementation projects. With several key initiatives underway—including a Windows 11 rollout to field sites, network upgrades, and enterprise application implementations —we’re looking for someone who can hit the ground running, navigate complexity, and drive projects to success in a dynamic environment. This role is best suited to someone who thrives in lean teams, wears multiple hats, and values both strategic thinking and tactical execution.
Key Responsibilities:
Manage multiple concurrent IT projects from initiation to closeout across infrastructure and application domains.
Support projects such as Windows 11 field deployment, network modernization, and application rollouts.
Guide stakeholders and vendors to align with project objectives.
Identify, manage, and escalate issues/risks proactively while maintaining delivery momentum.
Provide light business analysis support as needed—facilitating requirements gathering, process definition, and solution alignment.
Engage confidently with a range of internal teams and external vendors to maintain clear direction and accountability.
Ensure team alignment while keeping technical discussions on track without getting into deep technical detail.
Qualifications:
5+ years of experience managing both application and infrastructure projects.
Comfortable juggling multiple priorities in a fast-paced, high-accountability environment.
Ability to work independently and lead without heavy oversight.
Experience with field deployment or enterprise-wide technical rollouts is a strong asset.
Strong communicator with an ability to build consensus and drive action among cross-functional teams.
Some technical background or a strong ability to grasp conceptual technical ideas to stay aligned with IT teams.
PMP or similar certification is preferred but not required.
Working Style & Culture Fit:
You’re not a wallflower or a bulldozer—you know how to read a room, build alignment, and get things done.
Strategic in thinking, tactical in planning—able to roll up your sleeves when needed.
Adaptable and responsive; able to pivot as priorities shift.
Proactive, but respectful of pace and work/life balance.
Culturally aligned: collaborative, composed, and delivery-focused.
Work Schedule:
Hybrid environment with 4 remote days per month (typically Fridays).
Flexibility available for part-time ramp-up prior to September start date.
