Job Description
Build something people love
Wealthsimple is on a mission to help everyone achieve financial freedom by reimagining what it means to manage your money. 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 3+ million users who trust us with more than $100 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.
The Corporate Development function at Wealthsimple is a lean, but high-impact team responsible for accelerating the company’s growth through mergers & acquisitions, investments, and strategic partnerships. As Director of Strategic Partnerships, reporting to the VP of Corporate Development, you will own the vision and execution of Wealthsimple’s corporate partnership strategy.
Your mandate is to drive meaningful business growth by setting and executing the partnership strategy that advances our product roadmap and expands our market reach and distribution. You will originate, evaluate, and pursue high-value partnership opportunities with both high-growth startups and leading financial services incumbents across Canada and international markets. You will design and negotiate complex, non-standard partnership structures that go beyond traditional commercial agreements, partnering closely with the Corp Dev deal team on bespoke transaction structures where required. You will cultivate executive-level relationships and own the full partnership lifecycle—from strategic thesis and deal origination through negotiation, structuring, and execution. Partnering closely with product, engineering, go-to-market, and other cross functional stakeholders, you will ensure each alliance is thoughtfully designed and delivers clear, measurable business outcomes.
