Junior Project Manager at Ampliwork in Montreal, /, CA

About the role

• As a Junior Project Manager, you will be a key contributor to our PMO function, supporting the execution of both client-facing AI agent deployment projects and internal cross-functional initiatives. You will work closely with the Operations Manager, the CEO, and our product, engineering, sales, and pre-sales leads to keep projects moving, surface risks early, and ensure that nothing falls through the cracks. This is a hands-on execution role for someone who thrives on structure, ownership, and getting things done in a fast-moving environment.

What you'll do

• Own day-to-day execution of client-facing AI agent delivery projects, ensuring timelines, milestones, and deliverables are met.
• Coordinate internal projects across product, engineering, sales, pre-sales, and operations.
• Build and maintain project plans, timelines, RACI matrices, status reports, and dashboards in Asana.
• Track milestones, dependencies, and risks across multiple workstreams; proactively flag and escalate blockers.
• Facilitate recurring project meetings (kickoffs, standups, status reviews, steering committee updates) and produce clear, actionable meeting notes and follow-ups.
• Prepare client-facing project updates and internal leadership reporting.
• Support contract administration, vendor onboarding, and resource coordination across projects and entities (Canada, US, UK).
• Maintain and continuously improve PMO templates, processes, and documentation as the company scales.
• Partner with the Operations Manager on cross-functional initiatives spanning finance, HR, legal, and operations as needed.
• Contribute to a positive, collaborative team culture and bring a continuous-improvement mindset to everything you touch.

What we're looking for

• 1 to 3 years of experience as a project coordinator or junior project manager, ideally in technology, SaaS, professional services, or consulting.
• Bachelor's degree in Business, Engineering, Communications, Project Management, or a related field.
• Exceptional organizational skills and a strong sense of ownership — you keep multiple workstreams on track without dropping the ball.
• Resourceful and self-starting — you figure things out, ask the right questions, and find a way to get to "done."
• A genuinely curious mindset — you seek to understand the real problem behind the brief, not just the task in front of you.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in both English and French.
• Proficiency with project management tools (Asana strongly preferred; experience with Jira, Monday, or similar is a plus).
• Solid working knowledge of Microsoft 365 (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook) and Google Workspace.
• High attention to detail and consistent follow-through.
• Comfort working in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment with shifting priorities.
• Positive attitude, low ego, and a genuine desire to grow with a disruptive AI company.

Even better if you have

• Exposure to AI, machine learning, or enterprise software delivery projects.
• Hands-on experience administering Asana (custom fields, rules, portfolios, reporting).
• Familiarity with HubSpot, Rippling, QuickBooks Online, or similar SaaS operations tools.
• PMP, CAPM, PSM (Scrum Master), or other PM-related certifications.
• Experience supporting cross-border teams across Canada, the US, and the UK.
• Background in a client-facing implementation, delivery, or customer success role.

How we work — Our Ampliwork Behaviours

Our behaviours are the day-to-day signals that we're building the company we want to be. We will hire, develop, and recognize people against them.

• Be Bold. We lead from the front, challenge assumptions, and push for better ways of working. As a Junior PM, this means bringing ideas forward, making decisions with pace, and helping us see what's possible when technology is applied with purpose.
• Be Curious. We ask thoughtful questions, listen deeply, and seek to understand the real problems behind the brief. You'll dig into how customers actually work, where projects are stuck, and how we can improve outcomes — not just deliver outputs.
• Own It. We take responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks. We don't pass blame or wait for someone else to solve a problem. You'll follow through, communicate clearly, learn from mistakes, and do what's needed to deliver for the customer, the team, and the business.
• Care. We care about our customers, our work, and each other. Success at Ampliwork is collective: we share knowledge, support our colleagues, and take pride in the quality of what we do.
