Special Projects Lead

Prima Living, a proud member of the Primacorp group of companies, is leading the next generation of senior living in Canada. We are growing a network of vibrant, people first communities focused on compassion, connection, cultural inclusivity, and operational excellence.

Your Role

The Special Projects Lead will work closely with the President, providing executive support while coordinating high priority projects and strategic initiatives across Prima Living.

This is afast paced, high impact role for someone who is organized, proactive, resourceful, and comfortable managing multiple priorities. The successful candidate will work closely with executive leadership, provide regular updates, respond to changing priorities, and ensure projects move forward on time.

This is not a traditional 9 to 5 role. The position requires flexibility, occasional additional hours when business needs require it, and the ability to work effectively with leadership that is highly involved in projects and expects frequent communication and follow-through.
