Director, Program Compliance

The Ministry has an exciting opportunity for a collaborative leader for the permanent Director position (MCP 09).

The Program Compliance Branch leads investigative, enforcement and compliance activities for the new Immigration Services Act (ISA) and the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP).

The ISA provides the most robust integrity framework for immigration in the country and the SINP supports Saskatchewan’s economic growth by attracting internationally trained workers to meet ongoing labour market demand.

The branch is responsible for administration of the ISA, which includes licensing of immigration consultants and recruiters and registering employers seeking to recruit international workers.

The team leads investigations of potential violations of the ISA, misrepresentation or fraud by SINP applicants, employers, and nominees; auditing Immigration Services Branch file processing; and assessing areas of program risk.

The Director will work with other ministries, governments and agencies involved in the enforcement of immigration legislation as well as all levels of law enforcement in the effective investigation and prosecution of violations of immigration law and the criminal code.
