**Program Coordinator, Opus**:
The University of Saskatchewan's (USask) main campus is located in the vibrant city of Saskatoon on Treaty 6 territory and the traditional homeland of the Métis. USask is one of the top research-intensive, medical doctoral universities in Canada, and is home to world-leading research in areas of global importance, such as water and food security and infectious diseases.

The Office of the Vice-President Research (OVPR) provides visionary leadership and strategic direction to the university’s research, scholarly, and artistic works. This is achieved by creating strategic partnerships, plans, and policies that together create a supportive research environment indicative of a world-class research-intensive university.

- Planning and conducting outreach activities within the campus community with the goal of attracting participants to the incubator programs and events.
- Being actively involved in campus and innovation ecosystem opportunities to help develop productive relationships with community leaders, entrepreneurs, and external stakeholders.
- Aiding unit leadership in recruiting mentors and coaches and coordinating the involvement of mentors and coaches.
- Assisting in recruiting presenters and speakers to deliver programming.
- Ensuring participant and stakeholder contacts are up to date.
- Maintaining Opus website and managing social media channels (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram), including developing content and maintaining social media calendar.
- Supporting the collection and reporting of program key metrics and performance indicators.
- Other relevant duties as assigned.

**Education**: Undergraduate degree in a related field.

**Experience**: 3-5 years’ direct experience as an entrepreneur or within entrepreneurial environments, or an equal combination of work and educational experience. Previous program management, client services, and event coordination is required. Social media coordination experience is desirable.

**Skills**:

- Superior written and oral communications, including effective editing skills.
- Well-developed leadership, interpersonal and relationship-building skills.
- Demonstrated decision-making and problem-solving skills.
- Able to maintain meticulous attention to detail and ensure accuracy in work.
- Proficient working knowledge of Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook), Survey Monkey, Adobe Creative Suite or Canva, and Mailchimp.
- Adept in managing social media channels (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram).
- Highly organized and able to work independently on multiple projects with competing demands.
