Using smart technology, we take financial services that are often confusing, opaque and expensive and make them transparent and low-cost for everyone. We’re the largest fintech company in Canada, with over 4 million users who trust us with more than $80 billion in assets.
Our teams ship often and make an impact with groundbreaking ideas. We're looking for talented people who keep it simple and value collaboration and humility as we continue to create inclusive and high-performing teams where people can be inspired to do their best work.
As the Manager, Collateral Management, you will report to the Senior Manager of Cash & Collateral Management and will be responsible for collaborating with a number of stakeholders to further build out our collateral management capabilities for existing products, as well as prepare for new product launches. You will lead the day-to-day collateral processes, design and implement collateral transformations for optimization, and manage key counterparty relationships.
This role presents a unique opportunity for you to make a significant impact on Wealthsimple's financial operations, contribute to our growth and success, and leverage your expertise in a dynamic and rapidly evolving industry.

- Problem-solve and collaborate with multiple stakeholders—including Product, Engineering, Trading, Treasury, and Finance—to support the launch and scale of new products.
- Build processes, establish metrics, and stand up a structure that provides visibility into holistic collateral needs across the brokerage.
- Ensure compliance with all IIROC, GMSLA, and other regulatory requirements.

- Experience: 5+ years of experience in a collateral management, treasury operations, or securities finance role. Direct experience working with Clearing House collateral (OCC/CME/CDCC). Experience implementing a Collateral Management System is a strong asset.

- Strong Written & Verbal Communication: You speak plainly and truthfully. You can communicate complex ideas in a simple and easy-to-understand way for any audience.
- Proactive & Action-Oriented: You act without being told what to do, take full ownership of your work, and proactively seek help and input when needed.
