Job description

You've built a book. Now build a practice that grows.

You've earned your clients' trust, and you know how to manage money. What you may not have is the support around you: planners bringing you integrated relationships, an operations team handling the back office, and a firm whose investment approach you'd be proud to put your name to.

Q Wealth is looking for an experienced Portfolio Manager (or an Associate Portfolio Manager) working toward full registration) to join one of our Saskatoon partners. This role is for someone who already has an established client base and wants to spend their time advising clients and managing portfolios, with a firm behind them that helps the practice grow.

Why QWealth

• Fiduciary from the ground up. We're a portfolio management firm, so acting in the client's best interest is the legal standard we work to.
• Planning-led relationships. You'll work alongside our Financial Planners and Wealth Advisors. Investment strategy is built into each client's full financial picture, and that integration brings in new relationships.
• A real investment voice. Our PMs sit on the investment committee and its sub-committees. You'll help shape how the firm invests, not just carry out a model.
• Infrastructure that frees up your time. Portfolio oversight runs on d1g1t, with operations and compliance support behind you, so you spend more of your day with clients and less on administration.
• Transition support. Onboarding support for transitioning clients, dedicated ops help during the move.
• A long‑term path. We're building our Saskatoon presence and want someone who can grow into a leadership role as the team expands.

What you'll do

• Lead Know Your Client meetings, set appropriate mandates and investment policies, and meet all fiduciary obligations, with clear, complete documentation throughout.
