  • Coordinate across Investment Management, Technology, Operations, Compliance, Product, Client Experience and other stakeholder groups.

  • Influence senior stakeholders, build consensus and resolve competing priorities.

  • Lead workshops, design sessions and \"Day in the Life\" validation exercises.

  • Translate complex information into clear recommendations and executive-level decision materials.

Governance, Risk & Regulatory Oversight

  • Embed regulatory, compliance, risk, governance, audit and operational-resilience requirements in future-state design.

  • Support the design of controls across Portfolio Management, Performance Measurement, Fees, IPS and Risk Assessment processes.

  • Identify business risks and recommend mitigation strategies throughout design and implementation.

Qualifications

  • Experience leading large-scale transformation or platform-modernization initiatives in a regulated, risk-sensitive environment.

  • Working knowledge of wealth-management operations, including SMA/UMA centralized trading and Advisor-as-Portfolio-Manager programs.

  • Experience working with technology delivery teams; familiarity with agile methods, tools and terminology is preferred.

Knowledge & Leadership Capabilities

  • Deep understanding of Canadian private wealth, portfolio-management operating models, fees, performance reporting, IPS frameworks and risk-assessment methodologies.

  • Strong business architecture, process-design and requirements-management capabilities.

  • Ability to influence senior leaders, navigate ambiguity and drive decisions across complex stakeholder groups.

  • Exceptional analytical, facilitation, communication and presentation skills.

Portfolio Management Workstream Scope

The Portfolio Management workstream encompasses the managed-account lifecycle, including discretionary and advisor-managed models, IPS management, portfolio customization, asset-allocation models, bulk trading, loose-securities modelling, performance measurement, tax-loss harvesting and client fees.
