What you'll be doing
Client Account Management (CAM) plays an important role in supporting clients through moments that matter while balancing strong portfolio performance and responsible risk management. As a Senior Manager, Portfolio Management - Collections, you'll lead the strategic management and optimization of CIBC's secured and unsecured collections portfolios. Reporting to the Director, Portfolio Management - Collections, you'll own portfolio performance, establish portfolio strategies, and lead performance management frameworks that improve delinquency performance, customer outcomes, and recoveries. You'll provide strategic oversight across the collections lifecycle by using analytics, technology, governance, and continuous improvement practices to drive operational excellence. You'll also partner across teams to identify opportunities, strengthen decision-making, and advance portfolio optimization initiatives across the enterprise.
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.
How you'll succeed
