- Experience with Raiser’s Edge would be an advantage
- Demonstrated commitment to Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility
- A valid clear criminal record check (including working with vulnerable populations) is required
- The YWCA Metro Vancouver’s COVID-19 vaccination policy is currently suspended and as a result, vaccination from COVID-19 is not required at this time. However, should circumstances change and the YWCA deem it necessary to reintroduce such policy, you may be required to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19 in order to be eligible to continue performing your duties

**What we offer**:

- **Salary $62,000 - $72,000**
- $1.00 per hour in lieu of YWCA benefits after three months of employment
- Pro-rated, paid vacation equal to 22 days per annum, accrued monthly in accordance with the YWCA’s leave regulations
