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 and expensive and make them transparent and low-cost for everyone. We’re the largest fintech company in Canada, with 3+ million users who trust us with more than $100 billion in assets. And we’re just getting started.
We’re looking for someone who thinks big, sweats the small stuff and keeps things simple. You’ll join a high-bar, fast-paced team where people are trusted to own their work, communicate openly, and ship things that improve our clients’ lives. Collaboration, humility, and an obsession over quality are how we get stuff done.
About the team
Our Clearing Operations team is the backbone that makes every trade possible for Wealthsimple clients. When clients buy and sell stocks ETFs and precious metals through our app, we handle all the behind-the-scenes magic — managing position and cash movements, ensuring smooth settlement with our executing brokers, and resolving any trade disputes that arise. We support both self-directed and managed investment accounts, making sure every transaction is processed seamlessly. We’re expanding beyond equity, derivative and precious metal products to include mutual funds. If you love the operational precision that powers great client experiences in investing, this is your team!
In this role you will:
- Join the Operations team; work directly with motivated Operations Associates and take ownership of Start-to-finish processing of Mutual Fund Settlements and Reconciliation.
- Assist with projects related to improving existing processes or shipping new products.
- Get familiar with Canadian and US depositories CDS/DTCC and equity trade and Precious Metals settlement process.
- Contribute to identifying and mitigating any inherent operational risks as they relate to the overall team.
- Assist the broader team with any ad-hoc tasks, as required.
We're looking for people who:
- Minimum 3-4 years related experience in a Brokerage environment handling mutual funds.
- Are organized with a strong attention to detail and be comfortable working on multiple priorities with the ability to meet tight deadlines.
- Have awesome people skills and a positive attitude. You will be working in a highly collaborative environment.
- Are naturally curious: if something seems off, you want to figure out what’s going on.
- Are passionate about technology, specifically fintech.
Nice to have:
- Post Graduate education in Finance
