This role will create a plan to measurably raise awareness, facilitate conversations; and review, refine and monitor our programs and practices. The role will have the mandate to foster meaningful, lasting change and position World Vision Canada (WVC) as a leading employer in this area.

- Create a comprehensive road map and implementation plan to define key organizational gaps, goals and the process and timing for achieving them.
- Plan, coordinate and communicate all IDEA initiatives.
- Provide guidance to leaders on IDEA to ensure consistency in awareness and action plans.
- Measure the effectiveness of new and existing policies and strategies and adjust the approach as needed.
- Enhance culture by ensuring a commitment to IDEA is integrated into business processes and programs, including employee hiring, development, training, retention, promotions, compensation, etc.

Communicating and Educating (Training & Facilitation)

- Create a learning roadmap to support the achievement of IDEA objectives.
- Design and deliver both training sessions and group facilitation sessions on each stage of the journey.
