Toronto, Canada Canadian Partnership Against Cancer Full time

**Overview**:
The **Strategic Partnerships Division** leads engagement of partners in Canada’s health system and broader cancer community who are key to implementing practice and policy changes that deliver on the priorities of the _2019-2029 Canadian Strategy for Cancer Control_. The division works with the Partnership’s program teams and system partners to develop work plans, monitor progress, and regularly assess new and evolving work to ensure it aligns with the eight priorities of the Strategy.

**Overview of Role**:
As a highly organized, result-oriented professional with strong stakeholder relations, communications, writing and strategic thinking skills, the **Lead, Strategy (Government Relations)**, supports the Strategic Partnerships Division in carrying out projects and initiatives to achieve organizational priorities. Reporting to the Manager, Board and Government Relations, the incumbent leads the delivery of engagement and communications objectives related to executive partners in government, cancer and broader health system. For example, this includes federal, provincial and territorial government ministers and senior civil servants, executives of provincial and territorial cancer programs and of pan-Canadian health organizations. This is a critical internally facing role to help ensure the Partnership is strategic, efficient and innovative in our engagement and support of partners and stakeholders across jurisdictions as we collectively work to reduce the burden of cancer on all Canadians.

**Core Responsibilities and Activities**:
**Government Relations**:

- Stakeholder event planning - Support planning and management of external stakeholder events, including meetings involving the CEO and senior leadership, and developing briefing materials, decks, and other related collateral.

- Issues management - Support management of issues and inquiries, such as incoming requests from government and cancer system partners, including drafting and coordinating responses.

**General Responsibilities**:

- Prepares and presents content and/or represents the Board and Government Relations team at meetings, both internal and external, and/or other forums as directed.
- Prepares background notes and analysis on cancer control, health and other related areas to support ongoing strategic partner engagement and communications efforts.

**Competencies**:
The Partnership’s core competencies are a key element to reviewing performance. While the duties and responsibilities of a position tell you the “what,” the competencies tell you the “how.” We have developed five universal competencies which we expect to be exhibited by all employees regardless of level or position, as well as five leadership competencies which we expect to be exhibited by staff in people management positions.

**Universal Competencies**:

- Inclusive - values diversity and applies an equity lens; consciously thinks about who needs to be included.

- Systems-thinking - connects the dots between their work and the broader system, has political acuity.
