Description

The project management office (PMO) manager is accountable for building, leading, and maturing the IT project management office at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC (CPSBC). This role is responsible for establishing and continuously improving the PMO’s frameworks, standards, and practices to ensure consistent, high-quality delivery of IT initiatives aligned with organizational strategy.
