**Manager, Pensions**:
**Primary Purpose**: The role of Manager - Pensions is to provide strategic and technical leadership through the delivery, development and ongoing management of the several USask defined contribution and defined benefit plans with a combined value of over $1.6 billion. Given the significant financial value, obligations and risks associated with these plans, the Manager plays a key role in contributing to the financial sustainability strategies of the university. Likewise, pensions constitute a significant element of the USask Total Rewards value proposition to current and future employees, necessitating greater full-career awareness and appreciation among employees for our highly competitive plan arrangements. The Manager is also uniquely positioned to contribute to the university’s mental health strategies, particularly through the development of financial wellness programming. This role also gives leadership to and supports the continued growth of a talented team of pension specialists who undertake various roles in the administration and oversight of the university’s pension plans.

The Manager - Pensions provides facilitating leadership to several university pension advisory committees and acts as an expert resource for the committees according to the guidelines established in the pension plan governance documents. This role requires the development and maintenance of professional relationships with external service providers including investment consultants, investment managers, actuaries, custodians, auditors and regulators that support the governance structure of the pension plans. This position plays a key role in providing expertise on pension matters during collective agreement negotiations with applicable employee groups. This role directs the ongoing review, assessment and redesign of pension plans in response to changing economic environments and changes to Federal or Provincial legislation.

**Nature of Work**: Reporting to the Director - Total Rewards & Wellbeing, this position is situated within Human Resources, but maintains close working relationships with colleagues in various departments within USask’s Finance & Resources division. This position can be successfully carried out in either fully on-campus or hybrid (partially remote) work arrangements.
