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. We manage billions of dollars, so the stakes are high. At Wealthsimple, we are maker-owners, we believe that simple is better, and we do what's right for each client. In this role, you will:

- Manage day-to-day collateral processes with a focus on meeting daily collateral calls and supporting treasury money movements that power our products.
- Oversee and implement robust risk mitigation strategies for the team, balancing speed with the need for adequate controls.
- Manage our collateral sources and uses; contribute to the implementation of an optimization engine.
- Design and implement collateral management procedures for new products and initiatives.
- Work with stakeholders to forecast and anticipate growth in collateral requirements, and develop a playbook to operationalize this.
- Maintain and build strong relationships with counterparties, acting as a key contact for middle and back-office functions.
- 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.

Skills we’re looking for:

- 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.
- Problem Solving: You proactively identify issues impacting the team and lead the development of well-supported solutions. You enjoy navigating uncertainty and bringing clarity to ambiguity.
- Data & Analytics: A history of using data to answer complex problems and inform decisions. SQL and financial modeling skills are an asset.
- Organization & Planning: You plan, organize, and schedule efficiently. You are effective at prioritizing for the team, balancing day-to-day execution with project work.
- Collaboration: Excellent interpersonal skills and a willingness to work in collaboration with various team members, with a track record of contributing to cross-functional projects.
- 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.
- High-Level Judgment: You exercise strong judgment in complex situations, making informed decisions and anticipating potential consequences for your projects.
- Honesty/Integrity: doesn't cut corners; does what is right, not what is politically expedient.
