**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 work at FCM includes FCM becoming an even more member-driven organization that balances the realization of its goals with a people-centered approach.

- Support the CI team in conducting surveys and polls through different platforms
- Support the CI team in defining, streamlining and documenting processes
- Support the CI team in developing the methodology for data collection and reporting (definition of terms, desired format, data requirements, etc.) and data entry
- Support the CI team in the development of other tools to enable measurement and evaluation of the initiatives
- Support the CI team in other related tasks, as required

**Secondary Component (20%); Jack Layton Memorial Project**:

- Work collaboratively within a team of 7 fellows selected from various FCM departments.

You bring:
**Education**:

**Knowledge**:

- Knowledge of Lean principles and/or experience in contributing to Lean and continuous improvement initiatives is a strong asset.
- Strong knowledge of Microsoft Office Suite.
- Knowledge of Zoom and MS Teams.
- Basic knowledge of Asana is an asset.

- Detail-oriented with strong organizational skills and the ability to manage various tasks and keep them on track.
- A level of comfort with basic survey tools is an asset.
- The ability to edit and communicate in both official languages is an asset.

**Why working here rocks**

**We prioritize work-life balance with our flexible model**:

- When we say flexible work model, we mean that in collaboration with your manager and based on what your team needs, you have the flexibility to determine when you work so that you can enjoy a healthy balance between work and personal demands.
