Enterprise Architect

What if you could do the kind of work the world needs?

At WSP, you can access our global scale, contribute to landmark projects and connect with the brightest minds in your field to do the best work of your life. You can embrace your curiosity in a culture that celebrates new ideas and diverse perspectives. You can experience a world of opportunity and the chance to shape a career as unique as you.

The Enterprise Architect will play a crucial role in overseeing and supporting the digital transformation of construction-related functions. While a third-party vendor will handle the design and implementation, this individual will be responsible for managing the project, ensuring the selection of appropriate tools, and facilitating seamless integration across eight key functions: Portfolio & Project Planning, Document Management, Asset Management, Cost Estimation & Control, Quality Management, Risk Management, Health, Safety & Environment (HSE), and Business Intelligence & Visualizations for construction projects.

Your new role, what's involved?

• Oversee the implementation of IT systems within the PMO, ensuring alignment with both project and program management objectives to support strategic goals.
• Manage the digitization of key processes and procedures within the Programs and Projects Sector, aiming to enhance operational efficiency and ensure transparency across all activities.
• Implement digital platforms and collaborative tools, including project management and data management systems, to optimize the PMO’s ability to deliver projects effectively.
• Ensure seamless integration of new IT systems with existing PMO tools and workflows, facilitating smooth transitions and enhancing overall project execution.
• Develop and maintain a digital transformation roadmap for the PMO, focusing on scalability, flexibility, and delivering long-term value to the organization.
• Monitor the performance and utilization of digital systems within the PMO to ensure they meet the evolving requirements of both the PMO and its stakeholders.
• Collaborate with PMO stakeholders to identify system requirements, align expectations, and communicate progress on digital initiatives that improve project delivery outcomes.
• Lead the standardization of digital tools and platforms across the PMO to ensure consistent project reporting, data management, and adherence to best practices.
• Evaluate and recommend emerging technologies that enhance the PMO’s ability to manage projects efficiently, focusing on project tracking, resource management, and collaboration.
• Ensure that all digital solutions within the PMO comply with relevant industry standards, governance frameworks, and organizational policies, contributing to high standards of accountability and performance
