Senior Program Manager, Enterprise Cultural Transformation (Skills-Based Talent Management)

 

Are you a master of orchestration ready to support a multi-year transformation that redefines how our global TELUS team members grow their careers?

Position Overview

Interested in supporting the enterprise-wide shift to a skills-based talent management approach? TELUS is on a journey to transform how we manage talent by moving beyond looking only at job titles to a dynamic model where skills—both Human and Functional—are the new currency. By leveraging the power of data and AI, we aim to drive greater business agility, improve talent process efficiency, empower career development, and ensure we have a future-ready workforce.

Reporting to the Director of Talent Strategy and Culture, the Senior Program Manager leads the daily operations of this evolution. You are an outcome-obsessed collaborator who ensures every activity supports the shift to a skills-based currency. As the central orchestrator, you manage the project’s complex grid of stakeholders and data insights, to help us evolve to a skills-based talent management approach that matches team member skills with business needs.

 

 

Here’s the impact you’ll make and what we’ll accomplish together:

In this role, you will manage the operational rhythm and governance of our cultural transformation. There is no existing playbook, you will need to help us create the structure to set this initiative up for success. You will also need to pull together qualitative and quantitative insights from diverse enterprise use cases—such as Strategic Workforce Planning, Succession Planning, and Redeployment—to ensure the project engine is sustainable and scalable. Your work will ensure the transition to a skills-based model is seamless and aligned with our 2026 Roadmap and beyond.
