Join a Challenger
At EQ, we're remaking banking so every Canadian gets ahead, every day. Serving nearly 4 million Canadians from coast to coast, we offer a wide variety of financial services from banking and lending, to trust and credit union solutions. We've been at this since 1970, challenging the conventions of traditional banking with smarter, faster, and more connected financial experiences. What's kept us moving? The people behind it all: challengers who ask better questions, push back on old assumptions, and look for a better way forward. If you're driven to help reshape how banking works for Canadians and the businesses that power our economy, this could be your next big opportunity. We can’t wait to get to know you! Purpose of the Job
The Vice President, Integration Management Office (IMO) is accountable for the end-to-end execution of the Bank's enterprise integration, bringing two established Canadian banking businesses together into a stronger, more efficient and more competitive combined bank. The IMO holds one integrated master plan, central value case objectives & realization, and a central view of program budget, setting the standards, decision gates, data and reporting that delivery teams work to. The IMO operates through a matrix of employees and consultants across the Bank, with the central programme office team and dedicated consultants reporting directly to the Vice President.
This is a cross-bank role. The Integration Management Office is the connective tissue between the Executive Leadership Team, the executive sponsors who own each workstream's outcomes, the Board and its committees, the Bank's regulators, and the vendor providing transition services. The Vice President sets the cadence, the control structure and the reporting spine those audiences rely on, and converts complexity into decisions and execution plans.
The role is deliberately broad rather than deep. Executive sponsors drive the substance within their own domains; the Vice President is accountable for the integrity of the whole across critical path, value case, risk management, and outcome accountability, including the judgment of when to verify, escalate, problem solve, or hold the line rather than absorb the work centrally.
