Behind the scenes, but ahead of the curve: help us develop the next-generation public service media organization.

Technology & Infrastructure (T&I) is the backbone and the future-forward arm of CBC/Radio-Canada. Our purpose is to constantly innovate to evolve and maintain the Corporation’s technology and infrastructure. We are the people that make stuff work. We make connections between media content, systems, people and places. We are the space in between.

A place with purpose. CBC/Radio-Canada has always been a highly regarded pioneer of media technology — not just in Canada but around the world. Today, we are transforming ourselves into a modern and agile public service media organization. Technology is the driving force, and we are the team making it happen.

This is a hybrid position with a mix of in-office and remote work. Work arrangements will be discussed with hiring managers per departmental guidelines.

Your role

As a Program/Project Delivery Finance Advisor, you will play a critical role in supporting a large-scale and transformative agile/hybrid program. You will act as a vital financial bridge between delivery squads, program leadership, and Governance. Working closely with a Program Director and the Program Office, Product Owners, and Corporate Finance, you will be responsible for stewardship of complex project/program financials. You will navigate multiple funding models to ensure accurate tracking and reporting.

The opportunity

CBC/Radio-Canada is running a large-scale agile program with rigorous financial, tracking, and reporting requirements. This role offers the opportunity to synthesize complex financial data into actionable insights for various stakeholder groups, ultimately supporting critical reporting within the corporation and, via Finance, to external institutions involved in financing of the program.

Primary Duties and Responsibilities

• Oversee and aggregate program-level financials, applying strong Capital and non-Capital accounting knowledge while supporting empowered agile squads and Product Owners in managing their individual financial accountability.
• Working with the Program Director and Finance, establish appropriate financial guardrails and provide program-level monitoring across categories of spend (e.g., vendors, resourcing, licensing), supporting the Product Owners who maintain ownership/accountability for their initiative/project financials.
• Align financial tracking with the program's resource sheet for labour and travel burn rates, including squad membership and percentage allocations to projects.
• Develop "what-if" scenarios and financial plans to support program agility and decision-making.
• Fluently translate progress, risk, and financial metrics between technical teams and corporate partners, ensuring information is fit-for-purpose for high-level stewardship and control.
• Collaborate with Program Director in preparing financial reporting for Governance.
• Communicate financial statuses and requirements effectively to diverse groups, including Corporate Finance, the Program Director, and Product Owners/Squad Leads.

We are looking for a candidate with the following:

• 7 years relevant experience with 3 or more years managing project financials including agile/hybrid environments.
• Strong financial acumen, a deep understanding of financial mechanisms on projects and programs in the context of transformational and innovation projects.
• Able to understand actuals, and build short and long term forecasts in agile, traditional, and hybrid environments.
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity within an evolving program environment, bringing flexibility to financial forecasting as requirements and delivery details become more clearly defined over time.
• Understanding of different expenditure types in large transformative projects.
• Understanding of multiple funding models, from standard corporate budgets to loans paid via leases.
• Strong proficiency in utilizing data tools to track and report on financial performance metrics and turn complex information into tailored summaries.
• Experience building and using tools and reporting on financials in transformational/innovative initiatives.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, capable of interacting seamlessly with both highly technical and director-level governance.
• University degree in a relevant field or equivalent combination of training and experience.
• Functional bilingualism is an asset.

Candidates may be subject to skills and knowledge testing.
