**Why GMF is the place for you**

At GMF, we empower our people to create change where it has the most impact - municipalities.

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.

As part of their role, the Lead will ensure that the work GMF does in the sector aligns with and advances GMF’s strategic objectives. The Lead will also be responsible for developing the network and funding approaches and supporting knowledge and mobilization tools to support transformation of the sector towards more sustainable practices.

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. The incumbent embodies FCM’s commitment to being a healthy, diverse, inclusive, and anti-racist organization.
