Strong interpersonal and communication skills, exceptional organizational abilities, and experience in event planning are crucial for success in this role. Proficiency in MS Office and a valid Class 5 driver's license are also required.
We encourage all interested candidates to apply; however, preference will be given to qualified individuals who self-identify as Indigenous. We invite Indigenous candidates to highlight their identity in their cover letter.
