Director Community Engagement

2 months ago

SaintHyacinthe, Canada Canadian Cancer Society Full time
Role Details

As a community engagement leadership volunteer, you will be part of our committees of 10 to 15 volunteers who will work over the months to help us organize our fundraising events. Depending on the needs in your community, available roles could include committee lead, logistics, community outreach, volunteer lead, and social media.

Description

As the Relay Director, Community Engagement, you will work in partnership with the Relay Director, Logistics to create a successful event.

In your role you will be responsible for maintaining and developing initiatives that invite existing and new community partners to get involved and be part of Relay.

The committee volunteers who report to you will each have a portfolio to manage with a focus on the promotional and fundraising aspects of the event. Portfolios include recruiting and retaining participants, Participant of Hope engagement, event marketing and promotion, and corporate engagement (including sponsorship and product donations), as well as finding additional sources of revenue (pre-Relay activities). Your job will be to lead, motivate and support this group through pre-Relay activities up to and including event day.

You, and the Relay Director, Logistics are directly connected to a CCS Staff Partner and are responsible for sharing key event and organizational information with the Staff Partner as well as your committee members.

Success in this role will look like a vibrant event that rallies the community through team and participant registration, brings together survivors in large numbers, and attracts the support of multiple sponsors. Your Relay will be the local event everyone wants to be part of.

Why we need you

At CCS we are committed to improving the cancer experience by helping people with cancer live their lives more fully. The Canadian Cancer Society Relay For Life brings together communities united by the same goal of creating a world where no Canadian fears cancer. Relay is an opportunity to celebrate those who live and have lived in the face of cancer.

What we're looking for
  • You understand that cancer can change everything and that bringing community together in support of people who have been affected by cancer helps us prove that life is bigger than cancer.
  • You have the leadership skills to motivate a group of volunteers to work together and move objectives forward.
  • You understand your community and how to connect people and involve them in Relay. You know what matters to the people you rub shoulders with and how to create mutually beneficial experiences.
  • You are engaging and enthusiastic about the opportunity to invite your community not only to donate, but also to honour people who have had a cancer experience, and celebrate that life is bigger than cancer.
Our Investment

As an organization, we will provide you with online resources and training, as well as staff support to help you lead the community engagement side of the Relay committee and be an effective people leader.

You will have the opportunity to learn and mentor as you engage with CCS staff and volunteers.

Your commitment
  • This is a significant leadership role. We are anticipating an ongoing level of commitment which will include leading regular monthly meetings with the committee.
  • Between committee meetings, you will engage in small group or one to one mentorship meetings with each of your committee members.
  • You are agreeing to initiate and respond with regular consistent communication between the volunteers you are leading and the CCS Staff Partner who is supporting the event.
  • Post event, your feedback and debriefing will be crucial to ensure that Relay continues getting better every year and all voices are heard and valued. This also includes a conversation about your ongoing involvement with future Relays.
  • As the event date approaches your time commitment will increase and on event day your leadership, as you pitch in and pull the final details together, will be critical in creating the sense of accomplishment that everyone will go home with, knowing that their actions have created something bigger than cancer.
