We are a democratic, member-driven union that is built on a foundation of integrity and respect.

We also use our voice to speak up on issues that impact our communities, such as implementing a living wage and standing against discrimination.

**About the role**
As an Education & Engagement Representative, you will report to the Managing Director of Member Engagement & Growth and will be responsible for the planning and execution of all educational member programs and outreach events. You will also play a key role in managing both internal and external stakeholder relationships (member-led committees, community organizations, political offices.)

- Develop and nurture relationships with external stakeholders (e.g. community organizations, Ministerial offices, labour councils).
- Represent the union at meetings or events of partner community organizations.
- Work with the Managing Director to develop and implement the union’s legislative goals in member engagement initiatives (e.g. Lobby Day).
- Provide training, support, and management of rank-and-file members booked off for events or special campaigns (e.g. GOTV for upcoming provincial election).
- Work closely with Union Representatives during internal organizing campaigns of disengaged units.
- Collaborate with the Communications department to develop materials for training programs or engagement opportunities.
- Collaborate with the Organizing and Representation departments to develop member engagement opportunities outside of the bargaining process.

- Excellent communication skills, both oral and written.
