**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**:
Reporting to the Director of Community Efficiency and Leverage Programs, the Lead will assist GMF in attracting private capital and investments for municipal sustainability priorities. The Lead will collaborate with other FCM-GMF units and work closely with the Client Services, Funding and Investments (CSFI) and the Local Leadership for Climate Adaptation (LLCA) Program. Collaborating with funders in the investment and financial sectors is essential to achieve national and community climate change objectives because public funds alone cannot meet the extensive needs of Canadian communities.

The incumbent will support all aspects of GMF’s efforts to leverage private investments, including the development, implementation, and evolution of GMF’s strategy across all programs where it is most effective and beneficial. Initially, the focus will be on leading the design and delivery of the Financing Adaptation track of the Local Leadership for Climate Adaptation (LLCA) program. This track aims to provide funding for financing adaptation projects to attract greater private sector participation in adaptation financing and resilient municipal infrastructure.

Working as part of the Community Efficiency and Leverage team, the incumbent will provide support and learn from leading municipalities in areas such as local improvement charges, innovative financing models, carbon budgeting, green bonds and more. Additionally, they will help build awareness and capacity among municipalities with less experience in leveraging private investments, ensuring they start off on the right footing.

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 team, the Lead, Private Sector Investment works in a manner that embraces these values, the corporate culture and the passion for FCM’s mandate.
