About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced professional to join our team as a Capacity Development Specialist. This is an exciting opportunity to work with a national First Nation institution dedicated to supporting First Nations in their pursuit of social and economic well-being.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop and maintain relationships with assigned First Nation clients to promote and support their financial management system (FMS) certification and ongoing capacity development needs.
  • Provide guidance and support to First Nation clients in the pre-certification phase and the 10-year grant eligibility phase, including facilitating the completion of a financial management system readiness assessment, assisting with the identification of priorities and the preparation and maintenance of a work plan, and providing interpretation and implementation of the FMB's standards.
  • Assist First Nations in promoting the change management principles required to achieve FMS certification, and assist with the development of capacity building resources, such as internal control tools and templates, webinars, tutorials, workshops, and a roster of third-party contacts and resources.
  • Work with internal and external stakeholders to identify and assist with the implementation of leading practice capacity development delivery methods, and develop relationships with third-party contractors, external researchers, and academic institutions to conduct the development and facilitation of delivery mechanisms for FMB training courses.
  • Continue to work with clients after they achieve FMS certification to provide post-certification support, and where appropriate, deliver presentations and coordinate FMB presence at national and regional conferences.
Requirements
  • A degree in finance, accounting, economics, or another business-related field, and a professional accounting designation (CPA) preferred.
  • Minimum of five years of experience in planning and conducting internal or external audits of internal control over financial reporting or similar, involvement in planning, monitoring, and reporting activities, or managing all aspects of funding agreements.
  • Knowledge and understanding of First Nations and Indigenous governments and organizations, and knowledge of First Nations-related intervention policies, procedures, and practices.
  • Superior communication skills and an excellent command of written and spoken English, and French language skills considered an asset.
  • Ability to facilitate the implementation of approved finance, governance, human resources, and information management policies, and ability to think strategically and creatively and to work effectively in a fast-paced environment.
  • Proven experience in being hard working, diligent, mature, business-focused, detailed without losing sight of the larger picture, and operationally engaged.
  • Ability to encourage and engage clients to build confidence, capacity, and desire to ultimately achieve FMS certification, and experience with Microsoft Office Suite, including an advanced proficiency with Excel spreadsheets.
  • Willing to travel, including to remote locations, and willing and able to work outside of regular business hours.
What We Offer
  • Salary and annual bonus eligibility, flexible 37.5-hour work week, employer-paid extended benefits, matching group RPP contributions, annual vacation allowance, and generous paid stat and non-stat days.
  • Work-life balance, professional development and career growth opportunities, and the chance to work with a talented, diverse, and inclusive team doing transformative work on a national scale.
