**Why GMF is the place for you**

At GMF, we empower our people to create change where it has the most impact - municipalities. GMF is a $1.6 billion permanent endowment from the Government of Canada, managed at arm's length, making it nimble and available for higher-risk, higher-impact initiatives. A further $530M investment into GMF to support the National Adaptation Strategy was announced in November 2022. Our team is committed to helping local governments switch to sustainable practices faster. GMF is the cornerstone program of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM).

Our unique mix of funding, resources, and training gives municipalities the tools they need to build resiliency — and create better lives for Canadians. Through GMF, municipalities have reduced carbon emissions; built better transportation assets; constructed efficient and resilient buildings; diverted waste from landfill; made previously unusable land available for development; and improved soil and water quality.

**You in this role**:
The Project Officer (PO), Capacity Development will provide project oversight, coordination, administrative and logístical support to build municipal capacity for effective delivery within GMF priority areas including within core program areas (waste, water, transportation, land-use) and within energy and climate focus areas (net zero buildings, community level energy efficiency, district energy, community efficiency financing, sustainable affordable housing, and community buildings retrofits).

The Project Officer will oversee the design, logistics and delivery of a number of municipal
- and partner-oriented events and learning events (both online and in person) to mobilize the knowledge and practices developed within GMF’s funding program and the Canadian municipal sector. The role helps build the capacity of municipal staff, elected officials and key stakeholders to understand, undertake, successfully deliver and scale-up successful practices and approaches.

Major activities include coordinating the development and delivery of the Sustainable Communities Conference program, the development and delivery of other learning and capacity building activities (online and in person), convening and facilitating peer learning and networks, supporting the development, delivery and measurement of capacity building for funded projects and collaboration with municipalities and other program partners. The Officer also assists with the integration and coordination of knowledge management, exchange and mobilization across other units of GMF and the FCM Programs department.

The work at FCM includes FCM becoming an even more member-driven organization that balances the realization of its goals with a people-centered approach. The incumbent embodies FCM’s commitment to being a healthy, diverse, inclusive, and anti-racist organization. As a member of the Project Officer, works in a manner that embraces these values, the corporate culture and the passion for FCM’s mandate.

**What you’ll be doing**:

- Develops and delivers awareness raising and capacity building activities and programming (both online and in person) for municipal staff, elected officials and partners in GMF priority areas.
- Leads development and delivery of elements of the Sustainable Communities Conference program.
- Leads the development and delivery of information resources, guidebooks, tools and activities to promote uptake of these. Develops and deploys strategies for optimal impact and reach.
