**About the Role**: If you share a passion for creating safe, comfortable, and affordable homes, and wish to help build an organization that will have a lasting impact on hundreds of low-income families, we invite you to use your energy and skills as a Tenant Service Officer at Circle Community LandTrust (“Circle”).

**About Circle Community LandTrust**: Circle is a non-profit organization founded to protect and invest in some of the last affordable family-sized homes in Toronto. In June 2021, the City of Toronto chose Circle as the successful proponent to own and manage 561 houses transferred from Toronto Community Housing Corporation. For tenants, the benefits will be improved services and well-maintained houses. For Toronto, the benefits are the preservation and regeneration of hundreds of affordable houses - houses that would be impossible to replace in today’s market - in mixed-income neighbourhoods. Beginning in April 2022, Circle began to complete the purchase of the houses, to bring them into a good state of repair, and keep them affordable. Governed by a volunteer Board of Directors comprised of leaders in the social housing sector, Circle has a vision of quality, family-sized, perpetually affordable homes in inclusive communities to serve today's tenants and future generations.
