I've built my career delivering complex nuclear projects including 15+ years in field work at Bruce Power, leading multi-disciplinary teams through major refurbishment campaigns, and strategic and programmatic support to New Build Projects. I'm a mentor, a teacher, and (full disclosure) a champion of dad jokes. I believe culture is built on smiles and being there for each other - and that's exactly the kind of team we've grown at NPX. If that sounds like your kind of place, I'd love to meet you. Let's build something great together. ๐ ๐ About Us NPX partners with nuclear utilities and new reactor projects to unlock performance through innovation. We combine decades of nuclear operation expertise with AI, digital tools and lean processes to help plants run safer, smarter, and more cost-effectively. Our New Nuclear team scales this expertise through strategic project management of new nuclear projects, from concept through execution, across Canada, the U.S., and globally. ๐ง The Role NPX is seeking a Senior Program Manager who is interested in shaping the future of new nuclear at NPX and across North America. The role will include leading the planning, coordination, and delivery of new nuclear projects from early development through execution. Your day-to-day will be a mixture of partnering with clients, leading the team to deliver on commitments, and working on growth across NPX's New Build portfolio. When complex, multi-stakeholder programs are managed with discipline and clarity, Canada's nuclear future gets built on time, on budget, and to the highest safety standards - and you'll be at the centre of making that happen.

Drive proactive risk identification and mitigation across the program lifecycle, translating uncertainty into structured action plans before issues become project impacts. Serve as a trusted client interface at site to build strong relationships that keep work flowing and surface what's coming next. โจ What You Bring Results & Impact: you define what "done" looks like and drive your team to get there - on time, on budget, and without cutting corners on safety or quality. Leadership & Influence: you align multi-disciplinary teams around shared goals and create accountability across organizational boundaries. Experience leading and developing people a strong asset. Adaptability & Growth: you thrive in fast-moving environments and bring structure without rigidity when complexity increases.
