About the Position

We are seeking a highly skilled Policy Development Officer to join our team at the City of Toronto. As a key member of our Fleet Services Division, you will play a critical role in developing and implementing policies, strategic projects, and programs that drive sustainability and environmental resilience.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead the development and implementation of policies and programs that promote sustainability and environmental resilience.
  • Manage multiple, complex projects that drive action on strategic modernization and business transformation initiatives.
  • Create evaluation frameworks and carry out evaluations of policies and programs to ensure successful implementation and continuous improvement.
  • Engage and build collaborative relationships with stakeholders through a community development approach, including effective planning and facilitation of working groups, committees, and advisory meetings.
  • Collaborate with key stakeholders internally and externally to understand operational requirements and develop policies, frameworks, and processes to meet identified needs.
  • Lead and conduct research, working with qualitative and quantitative sources of data, and develop evidence-informed recommendations based on findings.
  • Prepare Council reports, research reports, knowledge translation materials, briefing notes, presentations, policies, and program documentation.
  • Potential to manage a small team of project management and policy development professionals, acting as a supportive supervisor focused on growth and mentorship.
Requirements
  • Graduate-level degree in a related discipline (e.g., social sciences, public policy/public administration) or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • Considerable project management experience, stewarding complex initiatives from inception through to implementation with minimal direction, while balancing internal and external stakeholder interests, and resolving conflicts.
  • Demonstratable experience in policy and program development, implementation, and evaluation.
  • Experience applying a community development approach to stakeholder engagement, including strong facilitation skills.
  • Strong knowledge of applying an equity, diversity, and inclusion lens, anti-racism and anti-oppression approaches, environmental resilience, and sustainability.
  • Experience applying change management strategies to systems change initiatives.
  • Demonstratable experience working with large data sets, as well as the ability to translate data for different audiences by developing visualizations and narratives.
  • Exceptional leadership, negotiation, and collaboration skills, and the ability to coach and influence with and without direct authority.
  • Political acuity with an exceptional ability to handle sensitive and confidential situations with diplomacy.
  • Experience implementing climate resilience or sustainability policies, projects, and/or programs is an asset.
  • While all qualified applicants will be considered, lived experience as an Indigenous person, a Black person, or a member of an equity-deserving group is a strong asset.
