Background

About Alexander Gebethner

I started my career in broadcasting, before gravitating towards the public service. Since joining the Federal Government, I have specialized in supporting the IT infrastructure used by organizations across the immigration continuum, such as IRCC, CBSA, ESDC, and DOJ. I also have significant experience in application processing and rendering decisions in complex cases. I have held active roles in intradepartmental working groups tasked with implementing major legislation, and have also acted as a liaison between various departments and agencies. My experience has provided me with a holistic understanding of the complexities inherent in Canada's immigration and border control environment. My ongoing work supporting the tools that enable us to tackle these challenges provides me with further insight into how they may be solved. Finally, my media and communications training provides a unique appreciation for how these solutions can best be presented to a critical audience - be it at a conference table or a media scrum.
