The incumbent must focus on ensuring that the various accountabilities are processed to the highest standard as per regulatory requirements under the Income Tax Act (overseen by Canada Revenue Agency) and various provincial acts. The focus of the position includes communications with the serviced business lines, front-office staff regarding client transactions for registered plans. Such communications would include answering questions related to legislation and governing rules for all types of registered plans offered at those businesses. As well, inquiries include those related to processes and procedures for transactions, including correct forms to complete.
