• Provide senior leadership for the delivery and evolution of Salesforce Financial Services Cloud as the core Wealth client relationship management platform, used by our client-facing and head-office operational staff across our Private Wealth, Investorline, and BMO Insurance businesses.

• Ensure FSC supports end-to-end wealth management processes, including client onboarding, KYC, relationship hierarchies, advisor workflows, and service interactions.

• Lead integration between Salesforce FSC and enterprise data, analytics, and AI platforms on AWS, enabling a single, consistent view of the client and advisor.

• Champion future responsible use of AI and generative AI within Salesforce, such as intelligent automation, personalization, next-best-action, and forecasting, aligned with regulatory and ethical standards.

Strategic Planning & Stakeholder Engagement

• Act as a trusted advisor to senior wealth business and technology leaders, contributing to platform strategy, investment planning, and initiative prioritization.

• Balance business value, regulatory risk, delivery timelines, and cost across a complex portfolio of initiatives.

• Identify opportunities to modernize wealth platforms and operating models to improve client experience, advisor productivity, insight quality, and compliance outcomes.

Delivery Management & Vendor Oversight

• Manage delivery across multiple, concurrent initiatives spanning AWS and Salesforce FSC platforms.

• Oversee system integrators, cloud providers, and internal technology partners to ensure high-quality, cost-effective delivery aligned with enterprise and regulatory standards.

• Ensure strong operational readiness, release management, and support models for all production platforms.

People & Culture Leadership

• Build and lead high-performing teams across data engineering, analytics, AI, and Salesforce delivery.
