* POSITION SUMMARY:

** The Vice President, Wealth Management plays a pivotal role in shaping HEB’s growth by developing, expanding, and optimizing sales channels within Canada’s wealth management sector. This leader strengthens Home Equity Bank’s competitive position by building a new originations channel for reverse mortgages and equity‑lending solutions designed for Canadians aged 55+.
This role is responsible for identifying, cultivating, and securing new partnerships with investment and wealth firms — extending well beyond traditional third‑party mortgage distribution. The VP reimagines channel diversification by defining strategic direction, introducing bold ideas, and driving innovative partnerships that accelerate advisor adoption and overall sales performance.
The leader optimizes current sales activities, identifies opportunities to enhance productivity, and guides a national team to deepen advisor engagement, broaden distribution, and deliver incremental sales growth. Success includes meeting annual reverse‑mortgage origination targets outlined in the corporate plan and establishing new partnership agreements that support mid‑ and long‑term growth.
Based at HEB’s Toronto head office, the VP collaborates closely with leaders across Direct‑to‑Consumer, Broker, and Bank Referral channels, as well as Operations, Credit, and Regional Sales Directors. The role is instrumental in elevating product awareness, managing the sales process, providing insight into activity and performance, and developing programs that drive increased mortgage originations
