The Opportunity: Are you a force to be reckoned with? We are looking for a dynamic Executive Director to lead Uquutaq Society into its next phase of growth by championing our program and organizational vision, overseeing all operations, providing guidance and mentorship to the management team, and leading capital projects aligned with community commitments. This role offers a unique chance to leverage your skills and experience to make a significant impact in addressing housing and homelessness in Canada's North.

This is your opportunity to shape the future of our community through innovative and impactful projects.
You are creative, resourceful and experienced at tapping into funding sources and you advance successful fundraising initiatives, manage donor relationships, and diversify funding sources. Your broad knowledge of organizational financial management is key to overseeing budget preparation, financial forecasting, and ensuring compliance and risk management across the organization.
With strong project management and program operations expertise you are involved in designing and directing the implementation of programs for the community, advocating for clients' rights and access to services, and ensuring effective data analytics and metrics are in place to assess program effectiveness. Community engagement is vital, advocating for policy changes and funding support while fostering partnerships with community organizations and service providers. Additionally, you model and promote a positive organizational culture, develop diversity, equity, and inclusion policies, support HR-related matters, and collaborate with the Board on strategy.
Ideal Candidate Profile:
- Degree in Non-Profit Management, Business Administration, Public Policy, or related field.

- Proven experience in financial management and budget oversight.
- Familiarity with Inuit culture and the ability to operate effectively in diverse environments.
