As one of Canada’s Most Admired Corporate Cultures, we know it’s our people who make us great at what we do.

We have an exciting opportunity for a high-caliber, ambitious individual to take on a new role at Eckler, working exclusively with a unique and innovative target benefit pension plan, CWIPP.

About CWIPP

CWIPP is a multi-employer target benefit pension plan that offers flexible plan features to union/employer groups anywhere in Canada. For more than 50 years, CWIPP has been an important part of many financial retirement plans from coast to coast — reaching almost 25,000 Canadians.

CWIPP has a flexible plan design — each group can choose benefit options to best meet the needs of their members. As a defined benefit pension plan, pensions are earned at a set rate for each participating group based on the negotiated level of contributions, and benefit options chosen. As a well-governed plan, CWIPP has strong financial management with a proven long-term diversified investment strategy.

The CWIPP Board of Trustees is comprised of individuals whose diverse expertise, skills, and knowledge enable them to govern CWIPP with excellence. With an exceptional plan experience that keeps all participating unions, employers, and plan members informed and up to date, CWIPP is an ideal pension solution that provides Canadians with a predictable pension income for life.

  • Engage and educate plan members to raise awareness and understanding of the plan.
  • Identify market trends and union and member pension preferences.
  • Build the CWIPP brand, which may include active social media engagement on various platforms on CWIPP’s behalf and the development of other communication material.

  • Collaboratively work with the CWIPP Managing Director to ensure a smooth hand-off when onboarding new employer groups.
  • Eloquently articulate CWIPP’s distinctive features and the value of its associated benefits within the framework and context of the pension landscape in Canada.
  • Establish key performance indicators (KPIs) to track the progress and success of market engagement activities; refine key priorities accordingly.
  • Contribute to building a high-performing team with the skills and expertise needed to successfully support market engagement activities.
  • Foster strong relationships with the CWIPP team and the CWIPP Board of Trustees to ensure long-term success.
