Senior Project Manager

About Us

Founded in Montreal in 2018, nesto is a Canadian fintech company on a mission to make property financing positive, empowering, and transparent from start to finish. We began as a digital mortgage broker and became Canada's leading direct-to-consumer online lending platform. Through Nesto Cloud, our B2B, cloud-native, end-to-end mortgage technology platform, we empower financial institutions, credit unions, and commercial real estate lenders with intelligent automation, real-time compliance, and seamless integrations across the full lending lifecycle.

Together with CMLS Financial, we form the Nesto Group: more than $73 billion CAD in residential and commercial mortgages under management, 1,300+ team members, 12 offices across Canada.

As we partner with more financial institutions to modernize their mortgage operations through Nesto Cloud, we are adding two new Project Manager roles, growing our team from four to six. As Canada's most advanced cloud-based mortgage technology, our SaaS solution offers a best-in-class omnichannel experience. This platform consistently drives volume, boosts productivity, and lowers technology costs.

We are looking for someone in Quebec, with a preference for candidates based in the Greater Montreal area. Fluency in French is required.

As a Project Manager on nesto's B2B delivery team, you'll lead large, multi-stream SaaS implementation programs for our financial-institution partners. This role combines discovery and implementation ownership, from early requirements through delivery, testing, and post-launch stabilization. You'll partner closely with product, engineering, operations, and leadership to ensure programs are delivered efficiently and all stakeholders remain aligned. In order to be successful:

• You take immediate ownership and drive progress from day one, even when faced with ambiguity.
• You proactively organize work and bring structure where processes don't exist.
• You will identify and help implement foundational product management standards and practices – as the team was established recently, we are still building the infrastructure required for a highly efficient PM organization.
• You ramp up quickly on our SaaS delivery model – enterprise SaaS delivery experience is a must.
• You demonstrate strong learning agility by absorbing large amounts of new information quickly.

• Own the end-to-end delivery of enterprise client implementations, from discovery through deployment and post-launch transition.
• Facilitate discovery workshops along side our SMEs and requirements sessions to define scope, dependencies, and timelines.
• Translate business and technical requirements into actionable delivery plans using tools such as Jira and Confluence.
• Coordinate with internal teams (Product, Engineering, QA, Operations) and external vendors to drive progress and resolve blockers.
• Manage project budgets, schedules, and dependencies across multiple work streams.
• Provide clear, consistent communication to client and internal stakeholders, including weekly status reports, risk logs, and steering committee updates.
• Track project health and proactively identify delivery risks, capacity constraints, and cross-program dependencies.
• Partner with other PMs to align work streams across major accounts
• Contribute to the evolution of nesto’s delivery framework.

• 7+ years of experience in project management, with at least 3 years in SaaS environments.
• Experience or understanding of non-functional requirements (e.g. monitoring, alerting, high availability, production / cloud operations), relevant to SaaS platforms.
• Direct customer interaction experience, as you'll be responsible…
