About Supervision Department
The payments landscape in Canada and globally is changing rapidly. The rapid pace of technological change in Canada and around the world is introducing new and better ways for consumers and businesses to make payments.
The federal government is implementing a new Supervisory Framework under the Retail Payment Activities Act. Under this Framework, the Bank of Canada would supervise retail payment service providers’ (PSPs) compliance with operational risk management and fund safeguarding requirements and maintain a public registry of regulated PSPs.
The Bank will assess whether PSPs are complying with the Act and associated regulatory requirements, including assessing if they are adequately managing their risks and help identify areas where their risk-management practices should be improved. To fulfill its mandate, the Bank will have a suite of compliance and enforcement tools and will be authorized to promote compliance and take enforcement actions, including imposing administrative monetary penalties and entering into compliance agreements.
What you will do
As a Senior Supervisor in the Enforcement Division, you will contribute to fulfilling the Bank’s Supervisory mandate by participating in the implementation of the legislative and regulatory authorities of the Bank related to enforcement. You will assist in preparing the department to register and supervise payment service providers. Preparation will include testing the system and processes, developing operational policies, procedures, and training materials for enforcement staff. You will also help create and implement working documents for the enforcement program.
In addition, you will:

- participate in compliance promotion and enforcement engagement activities;
- monitor and evaluate trends or issues related to the payments ecosystem and enforcement actions;
- investigate cases of potential non-compliance; and
- recommend the use of appropriate compliance and enforcement tools and actions.
What you need to succeed
You should have the desire to build (or already have) knowledge of the broader financial system, the supervision of retail payment systems with an appreciation of current issues and trends faced by individual PSPs. You should have knowledge of compliance and enforcement processes and experience dealing with a range of enforcement and investigative issues.
