Job description

AIMCo (Alberta Investment Management Corporation) is one of Canada’s largest and most diversified institutional investment managers with more than $179.6 billion of assets under management. Their priority is their clients, and they invest globally on behalf of 25 pension, endowment, insurance, government, and specialty funds in Alberta across 30 pools of capital. AIMCo is at an exciting point in its history – going through significant change and transformation as it continues to build its leadership team, transform its investment strategy and approach and broaden into new investment areas in public and private assets. The company has become a truly global corporation with offices now in Edmonton, Calgary, Toronto, London, and Luxembourg, and its culture based on principles of collaboration, innovation and diversity have won numerous awards as a "Top Employer".

The Technology department is a strategic partner with AIMCo’s business areas. It enables investment processes and business activities that contribute to the achievement of AIMCo’s mission and long‑term goals. In recent years, AIMCo has made significant strides in modernizing its technology environment, advancing cloud adoption, implementing enterprise‑grade applications, and improving infrastructure resilience. With a solid foundation now in place, the organization is shifting its focus toward scaling innovation, accelerating transformation, and embedding cyber security into the core of its digital and business strategies. This evolution is driven by the conviction that security must be both rigorous and enabling – a trusted function that protects the enterprise while supporting speed, agility, and user‑centric design.

To lead this next phase, AIMCo is seeking a Director, Cyber Security who will be responsible for defining and executing the organization’s forward‑looking cyber strategy. Reporting to the Managing Director and leading a growing team of ~5, the Director will lead a portfolio of cyber initiatives that safeguard AIMCo’s operations, reputation, and global workforce. They will serve as a trusted advisor to senior leadership and the Board of Directors, fostering a culture of security awareness, innovation, and resilience.

The ideal candidate is an IT leader with a track record of success leading a modern cyber security program in a dynamic, complex organization, ideally having come up through a technical discipline such as networking, infrastructure, development, or data before transitioning into management. Deep knowledge of cybersecurity technologies, incident response, third‑party risk, vulnerability management and cloud security concepts is essential, along with the ability to translate trends and best practices into practical, business‑aligned security strategies. Experience in financial services, insurance, or large enterprise environments is highly valued, as is familiarity with three‑lines‑of‑defence frameworks.

In this high‑profile leadership role, the Director will need to be a strong communicator and compelling presenter, capable of quickly building trust and credibility with the Management team at AIMCo while working collaboratively across all areas of the business. The ideal candidate will be a thought leader with a service‑oriented mindset, capable of fostering collaboration, driving innovation, and ensuring AIMCo’s security posture remains robust in an evolving digital landscape.

Based in Edmonton, Alberta, this is a tremendous opportunity to join a high performing team with one of Canada’s largest institutional investors.
