**Summary**:
We are recruiting a full-time community investment program specialist to join our team. This position will work across the granting program portfolio and collaborate closely with the Community Investment team to co-design and implement granting programs for arts organizations, artist collectives and individual artists.

**Description**:

- We acknowledge that the land we gather on, Mohkinsstsis, is the ancestral territory of the Siksikaitsitapi — the Blackfoot people — comprising the Siksika, Kainai and Piikani Nations, as well as Treaty 7 signatories, the Tsuut’ina Nation and the Îyârhe Nakoda Bearspaw, Chiniki and Goodstoney First Nations. Today this land is home to the Otipemisiwak Métis Government Districts 5 and 6 as well as many First Nations and Inuit from across Turtle Island._
- We acknowledge that there has been art, music, dance, storytelling and ceremony on this land since time immemorial and it is in the spirit of this land and its people that we do our work._

**Application Assistance**:
**Employment Equity Statement**:
Calgary Arts Development is an equal opportunity employer and employs people without regard to race, ancestry, place of origin, colour, ethnic origin, language, citizenship, creed, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, marital status, physical and/or mental abilities.

While remaining alert and sensitive to the issue of fair and equitable treatment for all, Calgary Arts Development has a special concern with the participation and advancement of members of designated groups that have traditionally been disadvantaged in employment: Black, Indigenous, people of colour, immigrants and newcomers, persons with physical or mental disabilities, and members of the 2SLGBTQIAP+ community.

It is important to note that our office in the Edison downtown is not fully accessible although it is wheelchair accessible and has an accessible gender-neutral washroom. We are not presently equipped with technology that supports those with hearing or visual impairments. While we seek to be more accessible in the future, we feel it is important to be transparent about the limitations of our workplace as it is at present.

**Who Are We?**:
Calgary Arts Development is our city’s designated arts development authority. We provide grant investments to hundreds of arts organizations, individual artists, and groups. We value relationships, generosity, reciprocity, plain language and curiosity.

We believe the arts have the power to build our city. Through the arts development strategy, _Living a Creative Life_, our vision is a creative, connected, prosperous Calgary where every resident has the opportunity to live a creative life. We foster a sustainable and resilient arts sector and support arts-led city building.

Strong relationships are central to our work and will be particularly central to this role. We honour artists and believe that art is a critical component that benefits the public good. We welcome new introductions and partnerships with artists and arts organizations as well as with others whose work may be outside the arts who are trying to make our city great through living a creative life.

Our team has been working towards creating shared environments where all people can feel safe, heard and validated. A sensitivity to the lived experiences of diverse, marginalized and equity
- seeking people is very important as we continue valuing equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility in all aspects of our work.

**The Role**:
We are recruiting a full-time community investment program specialist to join our team. This position will work across the granting program portfolio and collaborate closely with the Community Investment team to co-design and implement granting programs for arts organizations, artist collectives and individual artists.

**Accountabilities**:

- Co-design and implement grant investment programs in alignment with Calgary Arts Development’s mission, vision, values and strategic framework.
- Ensure that the process is straightforward, transparent and adheres to published program guidelines and timelines.
- Communicate grant programs, host information sessions and deliver grant-writing workshops.
- Select and train assessment committees in the grant programs and online grant interface and facilitate the assessment process in a fair manner according to the published program guidelines and criteria.
- Work with Calgary Arts Development staff to ensure that the values of Truth and Reconciliation and equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility are embedded in the design and implementation of all investment programs.
