Job description

What it’s like to be a Northbridge Senior Broker Compensation Specialist

As a Senior Broker Compensation Specialist, you will play a key role in supporting Northbridge's broker distribution strategy by managing and overseeing complex broker compensation programs. From contingent profit commissions and incentive programs to budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis, your work will help ensure accurate payments, strong governance, and informed business decisions.

In this highly visible role, you'll collaborate with leaders across Corporate Sales & Distribution, Regional S&D and Finance, to deliver compensation initiatives, provide meaningful financial insights, and support strategic planning. If you enjoy combining financial expertise, analytical thinking, and process improvement in a dynamic insurance environment, we'd love to hear from you.

We want your talent!

If you are great at:

  • Turning complex financial data into clear insights and recommendations
  • Managing multiple priorities, deadlines, and annual planning cycles with confidence
  • Building strong relationships and communicating effectively with leaders and business partners
  • Identifying trends, explaining variances, and solving problems through analysis
  • Maintaining a high level of accuracy and attention to detail in financial calculations and reporting

You have:

  • A CPA designation and progressive experience in financial analysis, compensation programs, budgeting, or a related field
  • Advanced Excel skills, including financial modelling and data analysis
  • Experience with forecasting, accruals, variance analysis, and operational budgeting
  • Knowledge of compensation, commission, incentive, or broker compensation programs
  • Insurance industry experience and a CIP designation are considered strong assets

We really mean it when we say we put you first. Here are a few ways how:

  • Hybrid work! We have a flexible hybrid model that allows you to work from home up to 2 days per week, with added flexibility for when you really need it.

  • We support your financial health through our employee share purchase plan, pension plans, RRSP, discounts on staff insurance, and more!

  • We help you prioritize your well‑being from day one through flexible health benefits, early leave days, wellness programs, rewards, and recognition programs.

  • We are invested in helping you grow in your career through education assistance to complete your CIP, FCIP, CRM or other courses desired, internal mobility, leadership training, and mentoring programs.

  • NBFC cares about the community and supports the causes you believe in with donation matching and team volunteer days.

We’re committed to pay transparency and fairness. The base salary range for this position is $94,000 – $142,000, which reflects the expected base pay for the position. The actual base salary offered may vary depending on your experience, skills, and alignment with the role. We’re also open to candidates at different levels, so if this range doesn’t quite match your expectations, we still encourage you to apply.

This is a real opportunity — we’re actively hiring. If the role sounds like a good fit, we’d love to hear from you.

We also want to be transparent about our hiring process. While one of our systems includes AI capabilities, over 99% of our screening is done by real people. We believe in thoughtful, human‑centered hiring decisions and are committed to giving every application the attention it deserves.
