    About Us

    Making the Province work is no small job.

    Become part of the team today that helps to bridge the gap between the Department of Public Works SAP end users and the SAP service provider. The Operational/Financial Management Information Systems (OFMIS) team is part of the backbone of Public Works. As the OFMIS team, we provide training and hands-on support to the users of the SAP system; working to consistently analyze business issues and identify opportunities to implement improvements and support business enhancements for Public Works users.

    SAP is an enterprise resource system which provides enhanced decision making, improved cost control, fosters empowerment of employees, and balances the Government's need for sound corporate financial management with the operational specific needs of individual lines of business.

You will design and develop user-friendly training material, as well as deliver this training across the Province for over 700 end-users.

    You will liaise with Head Office and field offices in a support capacity and work closely with the Service Provider and SAP Service Management in the introduction of new modules, system upgrades and system enhancements by participating in UAT testing, developing training strategies and delivering training to the departments' stakeholders. You will also manage and maintain master data for both the Inventory and Plant Maintenance modules.

    Qualifications and Experience

    You have a bachelor's degree plus five (5) years of related experience with SAP. An equivalent combination of training and experience may be considered. SAP Certification is a definite asset. A Degree in Commerce and/or a background in accounting is also an asset.

    You are knowledgeable and experienced with training adults. You have direct experience with the various modules of SAP and considerable experience in FI, CO, MM and PM.

    You have proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and have excellent knowledge of spreadsheet software and creation, word processing, presentations, and email applications. You have a keen eye for detail and well-developed planning and organizational skills to ensure the effective delivery of the SAP training program and assistance with the efficient operation of our team.

    Experience with government accounting practices and business processes is desirable.

    You are a self-starter and an innovative thinker who is solutions oriented. You analyze and present information in a clear and concise manner. You have well developed planning and organizational skills, coupled with the ability to multi-task and adapt in this fast-paced environment with competing priorities and strict deadlines. You exercise sound judgement and a high degree of professionalism when providing technical advice. You communicate for maximum results, consistently maintain a courteous disposition, and hold a high standard for client and customer service. You are a self-motivated individual who works both independently with minimal supervision and participates fully as an effective team player.

    We will assess the above qualifications and competencies using one or more of the following tools: written examination, standardized tests, oral presentations, interview(s), and reference checks.
