You'll build and maintain strong working relationships across a matrix organization, collaborating closely with both CMRM groups (Trade Floor Risk Managers, Data, Governance, Reporting, Quantitative Solutions) and non-CMRM stakeholders (Risk Technology, Front Office and FO Technology, Model Vetting, Finance, Audit). Your expertise will help ensure our market risk processes are methodologically sound and operationally efficient, supporting the ongoing evolution of risk measurement at CIBC. You'll play a key role in driving projects forward, engaging stakeholders, and contributing to the strategic direction of market risk initiatives.

Within CMRM, the Risk Measurement, Systems & Reporting (RMSR) group is accountable for developing and maintaining a disciplined approach to the governance, monitoring and control of the bank’s counterparty credit, market, liquidity, funding, insurance and pension risk taking activities, and the associated risk systems.

Within RMSR, Market Risk Solutions group is responsible for:

· developing and maintaining systems and processes for robust market risk and CVA regulatory capital calculations, and internal market risk measurement, reporting, and monitoring

· supporting new business initiatives within CIBC Capital Markets

· meeting the requirements for business information, including market risk reporting and limit monitoring

· delivering on regulatory initiatives in Market Risk space

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 2-3 days per week on-site, while other days will be remote.
