Wealthsimple Expands Hiring in Alberta: Plans to Triple Workforce by 2025

October 16, 2024 by Robert Lewis

Toronto-based Wealthsimple has announced a major hiring expansion in Alberta, tapping into the province’s deep pool of talent as it continues its rapid growth.

The fintech giant, which has already doubled its Alberta workforce in the past year, plans to triple the number of full-time employees in the region by the end of 2025.

This expansion will bring Wealthsimple’s Alberta-based workforce to 105 employees, accounting for approximately 10% of the company’s total workforce.

Roles being actively recruited include positions in engineering and product development, client experience, sales, and operations. Check out their open listings here.

“There is so much amazing talent in Alberta and we’re excited to continue growing in the province,” said Diana McLachlan, Head of People Operations at Wealthsimple.

“With over 3 million Canadians trusting Wealthsimple with their finances, we need more people who want to solve real-world problems, enhance financial services for Canadians, and be part of building a great company.”

Wealthsimple’s localized hiring strategy will play a key role in the development of financial products tailored to the specific needs of Albertans.

Alberta is home to the youngest population of any Canadian province and boasts the highest average income in the country. These demographics have led more than 400,000 Albertans to choose Wealthsimple as their trusted partner in building generational wealth.

The government of Alberta and Invest Alberta have both expressed strong support for Wealthsimple’s ongoing investment in the province. Matt Jones, Alberta’s Minister of Jobs, Economy, and Trade, highlighted the significance of Wealthsimple’s growth:

“By expanding more of the Wealthsimple team into Alberta, they are tapping into our highly-skilled workforce and contributing to our vision of making Alberta a hub for fintech. This growth will empower more Albertans to achieve their financial goals and build a brighter future.”
