As a Senior Manager, RESL Collateral Management, you'll lead complex analysis and strategic recommendations to optimize collateral management across the RESL portfolio.

You'll work closely with partners across Risk, Retail Operations, Legal, Compliance, Audit, Treasury, and Business Intelligence to develop business cases, implement strategic initiatives, and track results. You'll also act as a subject matter expert, helping the team adapt collateral management practices as personal borrowing strategies evolve.
At CIBC we enable the work environment most optimal for you to thrive in your role. You'll have the flexibility to manage your work activities within a hybrid work arrangement where you'll spend 1-3 days per week on-site, while other days will be remote.
