On this episode of All Hands on Tech, we sit down with Jennifer Hutton, Vice President of Information, Technology & Risk and Chief Privacy Officer at Steele Auto Group. From its roots as a single Halifax dealership to a multi-region operation with more than 60 locations, Steele Auto’s growth story is powered by more tech than you might expect—and Jennifer is right at the centre of it.

With over 20 years of experience spanning technology, privacy, and enterprise risk, Jennifer shares a behind-the-scenes look at how tech enables scale in the automotive industry, how leaders balance innovation with responsibility, and what it means to build resilient, adaptable teams in the face of constant change. She also shares her career journey into executive leadership, her perspective on navigating underrepresentation in tech, and what the view looks like from the C-suite.
