Position Description

CGI is seeking a Director, Wealth360 to provide day-to-day business and product leadership for our Wealth360 platform. This role will translate executive strategy into clear product priorities, guide cross-functional execution, strengthen client and advisor outcomes, and contribute to the growth and market position of Wealth360.

The Director will act as the primary product authority for development teams, client engagements, sales pursuits and related cross-functional initiatives. This senior individual-contributor role has no direct reports; success will depend on leading through influence, expertise, sound judgment and clearly established decision authority.

The Director will independently prioritize the backlog and make day-to-day decisions on release scope, requirements, sequencing, user experience and trade-offs within established strategy, funding, contractual and delivery parameters. The Vice-President will retain final accountability for multi-release roadmap priorities, new modules or domains, investments, P&L decisions and commitments outside those parameters.

Location: Toronto

Work model: Hybrid - three days per week in a CGI office or at a client site

  • Guide clients on industry and implementation best practices for Wealth360.
  • Work directly with advisor teams to understand workflows, business objectives, successes and pain points, and advise clients on how to realize greater platform value.

Strengthen our industry position and enable growth

  • Adoption, user experience and client satisfaction insights are supported by clear performance reporting and improvement actions.
