The Project
Court Technology Services (CTS), within the Alberta Courts, is leading multiple technology initiatives to modernize and improve service delivery across the province.

This transformation will impact 80+ court locations across Alberta, supporting financial transactions, fee collections, ticket and fine payments, and reconciliation functions. The project is critical to ensuring secure, efficient, and transparent financial operations within the justice system, and is part of the broader Justice Digital modernization initiative.
The Role
We are seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead planning, coordination, and delivery for CTS projects, with primary allocation to the POS modernization initiative.
