A bachelor's degree in agriculture, animal science, or animal health, or similar education, is preferred.
As a key member of our team, you will be responsible for:
- Providing strategic leadership on animal health, welfare, associated programs, and services
- Collaborating with the divisional leadership team, including Federal and Provincial partners and industry
- Developing and implementing policies and programs related to animal health and welfare
