HSCA is a charity that operates on the leading edge of community-serving organizations in Calgary. We champion programs and initiatives that strengthen the capacity of residents to have meaningful engagements with each other and the world around them. We are a vibrant community hub - creating welcoming spaces within and beyond our walls, both virtually and in-person; a place where communities of interest, mixed demographics (income, age, backgrounds, ethnicities, newcomers, housing type) converge to participate in a shared sense of community and connection with others. We build collaborative connections with organizations and initiatives to increase our impact, reach, and ensure efficiency of program and service delivery across organizations.

This position requires excellent communication skills including well-defined written skills, a good listening ear, and the ability to effectively communicate verbally to a variety of stakeholders with the ability to use both technical and plain language depending on the audience. The successful applicant is highly personable and can navigate challenging situations with a calm resolve while balancing the interests of multiple and sometimes conflicting stakeholders (members of the public, community associations, the development community, and the Ward 7 Councillor’s Office).

**About You**:
You are a community-builder with a passion for the urban environment. You are an excellent facilitator who is skilled at navigating challenging stakeholder engagements. With an eye for detail and excellent organizational skills, you can organize both people and information. While you love working with people, you also like the opportunity to take a step back and put pen to paper, tailoring your writing style for a diversity of audiences. You thrive in an organization committed to leadership over management and enjoy a high level of autonomy in your work. Finally, you are willing, if not eager, to participate in shared learning and development with your team related to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, Truth and Reconciliation and Anti-Racism.
