What You’ll Do
• Project Planning and Coordination
o Lead project meetings, coordinate cross-functional activities, track deliverables, and provide clear status updates to leadership and external stakeholders.
• Timekeeping and Labour Reporting
o Work with employees and contractors to ensure project hours are entered accurately, coded correctly, and submitted on time.
o Prepare specialized government timesheet forms and reconcile labour records with project budgets, invoices, funding claims, and internal systems.
• Government Client Reporting and Invoicing
o Prepare monthly client reports using government-provided templates, including updates on progress, milestones, expenditures, risks, and upcoming activities.
o Prepare monthly invoice forms and supporting documentation while ensuring accuracy, confidentiality, appropriate approvals, and compliance with contractual requirements.
• Government Funding and Compliance
o Coordinate documentation, reporting, claims, and application support for government contracts and non-dilutive funding programs.
o Maintain a master reporting calendar and ensure that technical, financial, timesheet, invoice, and project information remains complete, consistent, and audit-ready.
• SR&ED Documentation
o Coordinate the collection and organization of technical, financial, and project documentation required by the company’s SR&ED consultant.
o Work with technical teams to capture eligible activities, technical uncertainties, experiments, design iterations, test results, labour records, and supporting evidence throughout the year.
• Project Management Software Ownership
o Serve as the primary administrator of Monday.com, including boards, dashboards, templates, automations, permissions, workflows, and reporting views.
o Establish consistent project-management standards, train users, monitor data quality, and improve adoption across teams.
• Production Scale-Up and Operational Improvement
o Support the transition from prototyping to mass production by coordinating production-readiness activities, supplier dependencies, resources, tooling, testing, engineering changes, and manufacturing risks.
o Help implement scalable project controls, reporting processes, document management, stage-gate reviews, performance metrics, and continuous-improvement practices.
