Transformation & AI Manager
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Sep 25, 2026. First seen by Alion on Jul 28, 2026.
Who are we?
Dynamic Connections is a leading North American third-party logistics company that provides integrated solutions for our customers. Dynamic Connection creates, sells and executes intelligent logistics solutions that provide peace of mind and seamless movement of our customer’s products. Our consistent service and communication make us an extension of our customers, and provides them with a seamless, stress-free transportation experience.
At Dynamic Connections, we treat our employees like we treat our customers - with honesty, integrity, and respect. We enjoy working together and making sure every day counts. We love doing team building activities like paint nights, axe throwing, intramural sports, potlucks and more. We have a positive, transparent, and entrepreneurial culture. Your success is our success.
Who are we looking for?
We’re growing through acquisition and building the AI muscle that helps us run smarter as we scale. As a private equity-backed business, we are rapidly growing. As Transformation & AI Manager, you sit at the centre of both: you’re the bridge between our executive team and every stakeholder touched by a new acquisition, and you’re a hands-on partner to our Chief Transformation Officer in finding and shipping the AI use cases that move our numbers.
This is a player-coach role, split roughly 70 / 30. On the acquisition / integration side, you’ll own the master plan for every acquisition - from diligence through close through full integration - and drive the cross-functional teams that make it happen. On the AI side, you’ll hunt for high-ROI use cases across our core business functions (quoting, track-and-trace, exception handling, and back-office work), pick the right tools, and build lightweight automations yourself when that’s faster than waiting on a vendor. Things move fast around here and change is constant, so we’re looking for someone who thrives on ambiguity and loves turning a messy problem into a clean plan.
If you’re a builder who’s equally comfortable running a room of senior stakeholders and prototyping a workflow yourself, and you’re looking for a role where strategy, execution, and experimentation all live in the same job, then we want you.
What you will bring to this role:
- Track record leading strategic business transformation, integrations, or major programs across deals of varying size
Strong project management, planning, and organizational skills; you can run multiple workstreams at once without losing the thread
Comfortable taking initiative and moving through ambiguity
Effective written and verbal communicator who can influence stakeholders and cross-functional partners while still driving results
Hands-on, practical fluency with modern AI / LLM tools, with a clear point of view on where they help and where they don’t
Proven experience researching, evaluating, negotiating, and managing third-party service providers
Strong computer skills and fluency with Microsoft Office Suite and project management platforms
Ability to build lightweight automations yourself - light scripting, APIs, low-code, or agent tools
Project Management Professional (PMP) certification
Formal Lean / Six Sigma training or certification
Previous private equity-backed or startup experience

Bonus Points if you have:
Bonus Points if you have:
To be successful in this role, you are:
Ownership-minded - you take responsibility for outcomes and make the calls that get you there, rather than waiting to be told what’s next.
A fast trust-builder - you can walk into a newly acquired company and earn credibility with their team and with our senior leadership, fast.
A builder - when waiting on a vendor is slower than doing it yourself, you’d rather prototype the workflow and ship it.
Highly collaborative - you work across functional and business boundaries naturally, and you bring people along with you.
Comfortable with ambiguity - integrations are messy and every deal is different; you build the plan as you go and adjust in real time.
