Requirements
  • At least 8 years of professional experience, including at least 5 years of practical project or program management experience.
  • Experience in project operations or a PMO, including ownership and configuration of a project portfolio management tool such as Wrike, with structures, custom fields, dependencies, and workflows.
  • Experience building process automations, including automation with artificial intelligence.
  • Ability to identify genuine project risks and constructively challenge flawed project plans.
  • Ability to consolidate multiple projects into a clear management-level view while preserving important details.
  • Ability to work across multiple teams and influence plan quality without formal authority over people.
  • Experience using artificial intelligence tools such as Claude or Gemini to improve or simplify work and processes.
  • Experience deploying a new process or tool and managing organizational adoption and change.
  • Ability to facilitate workshops and retrospectives that produce decisions.
Responsibilities
  • Maintain a single set of planning and reporting templates used across all current and future projects, including progress reports, RAID logs, and milestone checklists.
  • Define and improve standard project-management tool practices, ensuring each new project is configured according to the standard structure at launch.
  • Manage template version control so updates are deployed consistently.
  • Deploy new standards with a change-management plan covering affected stakeholders, changes, effective dates, and adoption confirmation.
  • Act as the internal Wrike expert for folder and project structures, custom fields, dependencies, and workflows.
  • Conduct recurring reviews of all active project plans in Wrike.
  • Report structural issues directly to project managers, including missing dependencies, unrealistic schedules, unassigned tasks, and outdated statuses.
  • Critically review each project manager's plan before external transmission or a milestone, assessing sequencing, risks, and documented assumptions, and advise the project manager based on the findings.
  • Constructively challenge plans that appear optimistic or incomplete.
  • Identify trends across projects, such as multiple projects assuming availability of the same specialist in the same week.
  • Maintain a consolidated view of all active projects showing statuses, key risks, and resource loads by project manager.
  • Identify resource conflicts and schedule collisions before they affect project managers or clients.
  • Prepare portfolio-level summaries to support PMO leadership.
  • Identify repetitive manual reporting tasks and automate them using Wrike workflows, dashboards, lightweight scripts, or Zapier-type connectors.
  • Apply automated configuration to each new project at launch instead of rebuilding it manually.
  • Create early-warning alerts for schedule deviations, such as overdue tasks and at-risk dependencies.
Desired Qualifications
  • PMP, Certified ScrumMaster, or other agile project-management certifications.
  • Experience with financial institutions, mortgage technology or lending, or regulated B2B environments.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • June 10, 2026 financing adds CAD 302 million for product expansion and sales.
  • Nesto plans to expand Nesto Cloud beyond mortgages into broader financial services.
  • La Caisse, Fidelity, Portage, and Diagram backing signals capital access for aggressive hiring.

What critics are saying

  • Banks like RBC, BNS, and TD can internalize similar automation and squeeze pricing.
  • Mortgage volumes remain rate-sensitive; a 2026 slowdown cuts Nesto Cloud transaction revenue immediately.
  • If AI underwriting disappoints, Nesto loses the technology story supporting its 2026 valuation.

What makes Nesto Cloud unique

  • Nesto Cloud sells mortgage-processing infrastructure, not just consumer lending, unlike pure brokers.
  • June 10, 2026 Series E at CAD 1.47 billion validates institutional confidence in platform.
  • Existing integrations with IGM Financial and Canadian lenders create sticky distribution and operational embedding.
