**Purpose**:
Under the general direction and in consultation with the Manager, Co-op Program & Business Partnerships, the Co-op Coordinator contributes to the success of the Lassonde Co-op Program by providing superior service to students and employers.

The incumbent develops, organizes, and facilitates a variety of workshops with an EDI (equity, diversity, & inclusion) lens, including those for the promotion of the program, and for purposes of work-force preparation. The role uses labour market expertise along with career readiness strategies to advise, coach, and support students in the Co-op Program. Additionally, the Co-op Coordinator supports student success on their work-term, conducting site-visits, ensuring evaluation and feedback loops are complete. The Co-op Coordinator contributes to the continuous refinement of the co-op program through assessment and administration of the co-operative education recruitment cycle to students and employer partners.

The Co-op Coordinator supports the Manager, Co-op Program & Business Partnerships, in the strategic outreach/effective relationship building with a wide variety of program partners and participants, including community, employers, alumni, students, staff, and faculty to maximize employers' and students' participation in the program.
