About Our Opportunity

Working under direction of the Manager, Climate Plan and Strategic Action (CPSA), you will work closely with and support the CPSA team as they work to create the conditions to enable government and non-government partners/stakeholders to advance the actions within the climate change plan and support progress towards the goals within the Environmental Goals and Climate Change Reduction Act (EGCCRA) through knowledge mobilization, strategic evaluation and coordination, and direct program implementation. You will work within a diverse team of professionals and will support various projects.

    • Assisting with data compilation and analysis for the climate plan annual reporting process.
  • Preparing presentations, reports, and other materials for senior leadership.
  • Supporting senior staff on policy/program development by conducting jurisdictional scans or other analysis of climate change strategic priority files.

Candidates should clearly indicate in their resume any completed course work and/or experience related to: climate change mitigation and adaptation, climate policy issues, climate justice and equity, grant writing, climate funding mechanisms, stakeholder/community engagement, and/or policy analysis.

  • Ability to work in a team environment and willingness to share ideas with colleagues.
  • Possess organization, time management, and prioritization skills.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
