A career at Horizon is for those who want to do something extraordinary, yet with meaningful purpose. We take pride in pushing the boundaries of technology and customer experience to deliver something that has never been done before. We are a fast-moving organization that promotes a hands-on approach, supporting each other through the tough spots, generating a close-knit team with a family feel.
What we do here is hard, but then very few things worth achieving are easy. By joining Horizon, you will have the opportunity to work with our world-class entrepreneurial team who are passionate about delivering something special.
What we need you to bring.
We are seeking an experienced Technical Project Manager to lead and manage our X7 development program.
Your Day- To-Day
As part of the team, you will tackle challenges and deliver something that has never been done before. You will join a small team of specialists, which provides significant latitude in developing our working methods alongside needs of developing the platform.
Our Benefits.
People are the heart of our success, and we like to provide transparency in the way we operate. This is why our benefits are beyond the normal, and we are constantly trying to improve these further.
If you have a passion for aerospace and eVTOL, and want to work on challenging and rewarding projects, please apply today!
Location.
We are located just outside of Lindsay, in the Kawartha Lakes area of Ontario, Canada. Our team is onsite at our facility, as a group, a minimum of two days per week. This role can be based in Lindsay or in our growing offices in Montreal and Ottawa! We offer relocation allowances in appropriate cases.
