• Exercising considerable judgement and leading complex initiatives: Make decisions on complex issues impacting multiple stakeholders, systems, or processes. Lead initiatives that require strategic thinking and coordination across the organization. 
• Navigating ambiguity and assessing materiality of risks: Operate effectively in ambiguous situations, analyzing and assessing the materiality of risks, developing mitigation plans, and remaining accountable to broadly defined objectives. 
• Leading and mentoring a diverse, high-performing team: Provide leadership, coaching, and professional development to team members. Promote an inclusive environment, encourage collaboration, and drive collective success.  

At CIBC we enable the work environment most optimal for you to thrive in your role. You can effectively perform all work activities remotely, and will only be required to be on-site on an occasional basis.
