As part of our team, you'll play a key role in reshaping compliance structures and processes, driving innovation at every level. Here, each team member has a chance to make a tangible impact – both in day-to-day operations and in the design of a future-focused compliance program. This not just about implementing a new program – it's about creating a culture of compliance that will cascade throughout the organization.

The Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate will thrive in a fast-paced, start-up-like setting as we build a new compliance structure that aligns with the bank’s size, complexity, and risk profile. In this role, you’ll need to be strategic, tactical, collaborative and creative in your approach. You will manage day-to-day operations while also helping design and implement a forward-thinking compliance program for the future.

Beyond technical expertise, we’re looking for someone with an entrepreneurial mindset—someone who can "roll up their sleeves", takes the initiative and can anticipate needs before they arise. A comfort level with ambiguity and the ability to excel in a dynamic, evolving landscape are essential as the US Compliance team redefines the bank's compliance program and structure.

Most importantly, the right candidate is seeking an intellectual challenge, has a desire to learn, and is committed to building something impactful from the ground up. At TD Bank, you’ll have the unique opportunity to help shape the future of the bank while collaborating with a team of enthusiastic colleagues dedicated to setting new industry standards.

The Senior Compliance Manager – Compliance Monitoring Programs will lead and enhance our Compliance Management System (CMS) with a focus on loan performance and servicing. This role involves managing compliance programs related to risk assessment, exam management, monitoring, reporting, and training across multiple lines of business. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience with large banks, a deep understanding of regulatory requirements (“alphabet soup” regulations), and knowledge of diverse products, including auto, real estate servicing, and small business lending. A strong background in compliance program management and passion about driving operational excellence are key to the success of this role.
