Job Description
We shape, build, and connect the North by living our values of Drive, Rigour, and Kindness - ambition in what we pursue, discipline in how we deliver, and respect in how we lead.
The opportunity
NVD’s portfolio includes hotels, restaurants, residential and commercial real estate, seniors living, and development - so the projects are varied, highly visible, and directly tied to business performance.
The Project Manager bridges executive direction and on-the-ground execution across NVD’s properties. You will lead approved capital and operational projects from concept through completion, including renovations, property improvements, facilities work, and other construction-related initiatives. This role brings the structure, coordination, and accountability needed to keep work moving while protecting day-to-day operations. It is well suited to someone who can turn ambiguity into plans, coordinate contractors and stakeholders well, and drive physical project work through to completion.
What does your success look like?
Projects progress from concept to completion with clear scope, strong coordination, and steady momentum.
Timelines, budgets, approvals, and dependencies are managed effectively, with issues identified early.
Executive leadership has clear visibility into status, risks, budget, and key decisions.
Contractors, vendors, and service providers are coordinated and accountable.
Work is delivered with minimal disruption to daily operations.
Development of project tools, controls, and reporting improve how work is planned, tracked, and delivered.
What you bring to the role
Experience leading projects in operations, hospitality, facilities, construction etc.
PMP designation is an asset.
Experience managing contractors, vendors, and external service providers.
Ability to manage multiple projects, deadlines, and competing stakeholder priorities.
Able to build strong relationships, work well across teams, and influence progress without direct authority.
Financial acumen to monitor budgets, track spending, and identify variances.
Sound judgment and practical problem-solving skills.
Strong written and verbal communication, with disciplined follow-through on documentation, approvals, and reporting.
Why build your career with us?
This role offers the chance to be part of work you can actually see when you walk a property, drive through a community, or watch an operation run better because the project got done well. We offer:
2-weeks vacation pay, increasing at service milestones
1-week managers leave
Health coverage including extended health, dental, and vision
RRSP matching to help you build long term financial security
Training and development
Pathways for advancement; we prioritize promoting from within
Preferred staff and friends and family rates across our hotel portfolio
Employee assistance and wellness program for you and your dependents
Requirements: Occasional travel in Yukon and BC. Flexibility to respond to project needs and attend meetings outside regular hours when operationally necessary.
