Cambrian Credit Union is seeking an Organizational Change & Project Manager to join our dynamic organization.

This responsibility is executed through two primary channels – building a successful change culture by establishing frameworks and toolkits, and building organizational capabilities, and through direct support for key organizational projects.

The Organizational Change & Project Manager empowers Cambrian project teams to achieve their maximum potential by cultivating an environment of trust, alignment, and continuous growth. The Organizational Change & Project Manager partners with multiple teams and initiatives to accelerate team ramp-up, establish healthy working rhythms, and drive ongoing improvements - ensuring every team is equipped to deliver their best work. The Organizational Change & Project Manager is a coach and team builder who creates the conditions for teams to “row in sync” toward their best effort.

This consultative partnership role reinforces alignment, cadence, and learning so every team can achieve its maximum potential.

The Organizational Change & Project Manager reports to the Director, Digital Experience, and receives additional direction and leadership from the Senior Vice-President, People & Culture.
