The Ontario Architect Rank Salary Band Has Stabilized at CAa disclosed amount to a disclosed amount
The observation
Bill 149 came into force on January 1, 2026, making salary disclosure mandatory on Ontario job postings of public posting type. Four months in, the disclosed bands at Senior Manager and Director rank contact centre workforce roles are converging on a specific range.
The low end. CAa disclosed amount Disclosed by Enercare on a Senior Manager Planning, Analysis and Workforce Optimization posting in Markham.
The high end. CAa disclosed amount Disclosed by Element Fleet on a Director Contact Centre Operations posting in Mississauga.
Aviso Wealth landed inside the range at CAa disclosed range on a Senior Manager Workforce Management and Optimization role. TD Bank Layer 6 landed at CAa disclosed range on the Manager Artificial Intelligence Workforce Management posting in Q4 2025.
Four operators across four industries. One band. The Ontario architect rank seat is now worth CAa disclosed range at the midpoint of the disclosed range, with upside to CAa disclosed amount for the strongest candidates.
The evidence
The convergence is not coincidence. Operators are reading each other's disclosed bands the same week they are posted. The fast moving operators are calibrating to the published market in close to real time.
| Entry | Operator | Role | Disclosed Range (CAD) | Spread |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LIB-2026-ON-0005 | Element Fleet | Director Contact Centre Operations | a disclosed range | a disclosed amount |
| LIB-2026-ON-0006 | Aviso Wealth | Senior Manager WFM and Optimization | a disclosed range | a disclosed amount |
| LIB-2026-ON-0013 | Enercare | Senior Manager Planning, Analysis and Workforce Optimization | a disclosed range | a disclosed amount |
| LIB-2025-ON-Q4-0001 | TD Bank Layer 6 | Manager AI Workforce Management | a disclosed range | a disclosed amount |
| Public record | Government of Ontario | Bill 149 Working for Workers Four Act 2024 | Maximum allowed spread approximately CAa disclosed amount | Legislative ceiling |
The Recruiter Read
Operators that try to fill the Senior Manager and Director rank seat below CAa disclosed amount are below the public market signal. The strongest candidates filter away from those postings. The operator either reposts at a higher band three months later or fills the seat with a candidate one rank below what the operator actually needed. Operators that go above CAa disclosed amount are paying a market premium. The premium signals the operator is buying a hire that is harder than the disclosed band suggests, either because the platform is rare, the timeline is short, or the function is being rebuilt from a failed predecessor.
The midpoint is the band. Operators at the midpoint are the operators winning the disclosed band hire in Ontario right now.
The hiring market signal
For an operator preparing the next Ontario architect rank posting. The published comparable set is now four postings deep and converging fast. The disclosure cannot be avoided under Bill 149. The disclosure can be calibrated. A band stretched to the legislative maximum signals serious intent. A band clustered at the low end signals budget constraint. The market reads the disclosure the day it is posted.
For a candidate at Senior Analyst or Senior Manager rank in Ontario considering a move. The Senior Manager and Director rank in 2026 pays CAa disclosed range at most of the disclosed Ontario operators. Operators that say privately they cannot pay that range are operators that have not yet decided the seat is the rank above Manager. The candidate that places at midpoint pulls the band up at the next operator. The candidate that takes the role below midpoint resets the band downward for the next twelve months.
