Toronto, Canada The Credit Counselling Society Full time

**What This Role Involves**:
As a Credit Counsellor, you are passionate about providing support, care, and guidance to clients who come to CCS seeking help with managing their finances. Specifically, you’ll help them find a solution to resolve their debt, including overcoming barriers and supporting them in moving forward to achieve their financial goals.

You help your clients better understand their monthly income and expenses, and after exploring their overall financial situation, you offer hope by providing and suggesting suitable options to help them successfully resolve their debts. In many cases, you will also offer ongoing support to clients as they begin a Debt Management Program, which allows them to pay off their debts with interest relief.

You will be an ongoing resource for the clients in your portfolio, answering their questions and following up as needed to support them in successfully completing their program and achieving their financial goals.

Given the fact that we support our clients in both of Canada's official languages, fluency in French is a requirement for this position, and fluency in other languages are also an asset.

Our team has the opportunity to work remotely on a hybrid basis, and even though we aren’t in the same office, we have chat groups and activities supported by our Culture Club, to offer our team the chance to develop relationships and have some fun at work too

In addition to a great workplace culture, our employee experience and compensation package includes:

- A comprehensive health and wellness benefits package, including $850/year for prescription coverage, $3,150/year for a Health Spending Account, $300/year for a Wellness Spending Account, and $300/year for a myFlex benefit to be allocated between the Health and Wellness Spending accounts to best meet each employee's needs. (These budgets are prorated to the date you become eligible for benefits.)
- Long term savings program with employer matching (starting at 5%).
- Educational reimbursements (up to $2,500/year).
- Three weeks vacation to start, plus 3 CCS days to use at your discretion and 6 Sick/Personal Days each year. (Time off budgets are prorated in your first year with CCS.)
- Celebration of personal and organizational milestones, including a paid day off when moving or getting married, as well as gifts for important events like having a child or celebrating a milestone service anniversary.
- Employee and family assistance program through Inkblot Therapy, offering counselling support as well as a wide variety of support resources.
- The opportunity to participate in our two-level employee development program and supplemental mentoring relationships to support those interested in furthering their professional growth.
