Our work involves taking a leadership and advocacy role on a full range of issues affecting First Nations, including negotiations and implementation of treaties, agreements, and other constructive arrangements, as well as day-to-day social and economic issues.

At the FNS, we offer a dynamic work environment, opportunities for professional development, and a chance to make a meaningful impact in the lives of First Nations citizens and communities.
