communities. Your previous work has given you great leadership and management skills, and
now you are looking for a role to put them to good use to create strong community supports
for Indigenous people in the North Okanagan.
The North Okanagan is a fast-growing community that is still affordable and has all the
amenities for people who love the outdoors and a small city environment.

inclusivity.
Responsibilities:
- Provide visionary leadership and strategic direction to advance the mission, goals, and values
of the organization. - Oversee the day-to-day operations of the organization, including program development,

procedures, and strategic plans to achieve long-term sustainability and impact. - Cultivate and maintain strong relationships with Indigenous communities, organizations,
government agencies, funders, and other stakeholders to support programmatic initiatives,
partnerships, and advocacy efforts. - Lead fundraising and resource development activities, including grant writing, donor
cultivation, and stewardship, to secure funding for existing programs and future growth. - Ensure compliance with all relevant legal, regulatory, and contractual requirements, as well
as adherence to ethical and best practice standards. - Foster a positive organizational culture that values teamwork, collaboration, diversity, equity,
and inclusion, and promote professional development opportunities for staff and volunteers. - Represent the organization in public forums, media interviews, conferences, and community
events to raise awareness of our mission, impact, and achievements. - Prepare and present regular reports to the Board of Directors, funders, and other
stakeholders on the organization’s activities, financial performance, and outcomes. - Monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of programs and services, utilizing data and
feedback to inform continuous improvement and strategic decision-making.
Qualifications:
- Minimum of 5 years of senior leadership experience in the non-profit sector, with a proven
track record of success in organizational management, program development, fundraising,
and community engagement. - Strong commitment to the values and principles of Indigenous self-determination, cultural
