Job Description
Midland Transport is currently seeking a Senior Project Specialist in Dieppe, NB. The Senior Project Specialist is an operations focused role within the Transformation Program. As the subject matter expert in operations capabilities, you will lead the end‑to‑end deployment solutions across the terminal network. This role ensures that processes, tools, and workflows are effectively transitioned from the build environment into live operations-enabling terminals to adopt and utilize new capabilities with confidence, consistency, and minimal disruption.
The Senior Project Specialist develops deep expertise in the future‑state model and translates that knowledge into practical deployment activities: terminal readiness assessments, user validation, process alignment, and go‑live support. The Senior Specialist will ensure that each terminal deployment delivers operationally sound outcomes that reflect real‑world terminal conditions.
This role works in close partnership with the Transition Lead, Terminal Power Users, Product Owners, Business Architects, Training, Change Management, and terminal operations teams to ensure deployments are coordinated, sequenced, and supported-driving adoption, building operational capability, and accelerating value realization across the network.
