Finance Director

For more than 75 years, Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly known as Ryerson University) has been shaping the next generation of leaders through its uniquely innovative, entrepreneurial and career-focused approach to higher education. Driven by bold leadership, cutting‑edge research and a deep commitment to academic excellence, TMU collaborates with students, faculties, staff and partners to push boundaries, reimagine solutions and create meaningful change in an increasingly interconnected world.

For a more in-depth understanding of our vision, core values and ongoing work, please see our academic plan.

TMU welcomes those who have demonstrated a commitment to upholding the values of equity, diversity, and inclusion and will assist us in realizing the benefits of embedding these values into the work at every level and in every unit of the university. In addition, to correct the conditions of disadvantage in employment in Canada and to bring lived experiences to the work, we encourage applications from members of equity‑deserving groups that have been historically disadvantaged and marginalized, including First Nations, Métis and Inuit Peoples in Canada, First Nations Peoples in the United States, racialized people, Black people, persons with disabilities, women, and 2

SLGBTQ+ people.
Preference will be given to candidates with lived experiences as people from equity‑deserving groups, as well as experience working with these communities with which the University works every day. Please note that all qualified candidates are encouraged to apply and we welcome newcomers and immigrants to Canada.

In April 2022, the university announced its new name of Toronto Metropolitan University. Learn more about our next chapter.

It’s time to transform medical education. Toronto Metropolitan University's School of Medicine has been designed from the ground up to shift the paradigm of healthcare delivery and improve the well‑being of individuals, families and communities. With a community‑driven, intentionally inclusive approach, the new school is training doctors whose cultural awareness and humility are as crucial as their medical skills.

Led by Dr. Teresa M. Chan, a forward‑thinking educational leader, TMU’s School of Medicine draws on the university’s commitment to community, equity, and innovation to address rapidly changing healthcare needs. The school will train a new generation of physicians who are ready to learn, to adapt, and ultimately to be agents of change.

We are hiring a Finance Director to join the School of Medicine! This newly created role leads the development and implementation of school‑wide financial planning, forecasting, budgeting, and resource management strategies that advance the academic, research, and operational priorities of the School of Medicine.

Serving as a trusted strategic advisor, the position provides expert financial counsel to the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO), the Dean, and senior leadership by assessing long‑term financial implications, recommending evidence‑based solutions, and ensuring alignment with broader University policies, procedures, and governance frameworks.

This role oversees the financial operations of the School of Medicine, supporting budgeting, reporting, financial compliance, and informed decision‑making. As required, the Director also provides professional financial and advisory support to the Integrated Health Centre, including support for external financial reporting and audit requirements, where access to TMU financial systems or institutional financial expertise is needed, in close collaboration with TMU Financial Services and the University Planning Office.

In addition, the Director conducts financial research and analysis to inform policy development and long‑term planning, and represents the CAO and the School of Medicine in TMU‑wide planning discussions and committees.
