**Join a Team that’s Raising the Bar in Emergency and Continuity Management**

At CCEM Strategies, we are setting new standards in emergency management and business continuity. We don't settle for old-school, cookie-cutter solutions. Rather, our clients come to us for effective strategies that are tailored not only to their specific requirements, but also to the unique needs of the communities they serve.

We are on a mission to enhance community resilience by working with clients in various industries, including (but not limited to) local, provincial, and federal government, First Nations, and industry clients associated with energy delivery, supply chain, transportation, and manufacturing. We listen compassionately and strategize creatively to deliver solutions that help our clients, and their communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies confidently.

As an Emergency and Continuity Management Advisor, you will support the development, implementation, and maintenance of comprehensive and customized programs. While working closely with others in the team, you will:

- Do intellectually satisfying work while creating positive change in industries and communities
- Interface with clients on administrative and coordination matters, and any other client-facing deliverables as assigned
- Support ongoing projects at various stages under the mentorship of CCEM's Specialists and Directors, including:

- Travel as needed to client sites and to participate in engagement workshops, training and exercises (up to 10% depending on business needs)
- Uphold CCEM’s established level of excellence in every deliverable

**What we offer**

The work we do is as important and demanding as it is impactful and rewarding. Our workplace culture stems from a shared understanding of the significance and purpose of our work, and the need to balance that with an environment where we are encouraged to unwind and respect downtime.

We offer a flexible hybrid work model (2-4 days in-office) with the opportunity to set your schedule around our core hours for optimal work-life balance. We dedicate time to connect through regular team outings and activities. We extend our care for the community through CCEM’s give-back initiatives to support causes that are meaningful to our team members.

We reward excellence with competitive base salaries and performance-based bonuses and incentives so that your earning potential is always aligned with the value you bring. In addition, our perks and benefits include:

- RRSP matching
- Starting allocation of 3 weeks’ vacation
- Extended health and dental benefits
- Annual professional development allowance
- Employee referral incentive program
- Client referral incentive program

**So, are you a fit?**

We are a high-achieving, growth focused, and highly collaborative team. We hold ourselves and each other to a consistent level of excellence and commit to only delivering truly fantastic end products. We take pride in going above and beyond our clients’ expectations and are motivated by the rave reviews we receive.
