The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) is widely recognized as one of the world's leading children's hospitals; a pioneer in healthcare, research, education, and training. Building on our strong legacy and track record, as we look to the future, SickKids requires a significant investment in new facilities, equipment and information technology to meet the changing needs of our patients and families and maintain the level of service for which we are globally recognized.
In 2015, SickKids launched Project Horizon , a multi-year phased redevelopment project to transform the delivery of paediatric care, meet growth needs and replace aging, outdated infrastructure. In addition to the already completed Patient Support Centre (PSC), Project Horizon consists of building an Ambulatory Care Tower (ACT) at a new location less than one kilometer away from the University Avenue SickKids campus, and the demolition of the Black and Hill wings to make space for a new Critical Care Tower (CCT). Project Horizon will also involve the renovation of the Atrium for acute inpatient care, renovation of the Burton wing for clinical and clinical support services, and a series of renovations, infrastructure upgrades, and demolition projects within existing SickKids facilities (collectively called "Early Works") to support the phasing and long-term vision of the campus transformation.

They will also work closely with the Clinical Reinvention, Project Delivery, and Information, Communication, Automation and Technology, Furniture Fixtures and Equipment and other teams to plan how paediatric care is delivered on the University Avenue campus before programs have reached their full functional program size and ideal location, and amongst renovation and construction. Finally, the Project Director will work with the teams above and other internal and external stakeholders, consultants and leaders to ensure project plans, budgets, scope and other deliverables are met.
