Are you looking for an opportunity to showcase and enhance your writing/editing, coordination, and people skills? Do you have experience in business planning and reporting or enterprise risk management?

Reporting to the Manager of Business and Operational Planning, as the Corporate Planning & Reporting Analyst, you will provide coordination, consultation, quality control, and project management to support the ministry’s strategic, business, and operational planning and reporting, executive performance agreements, and enterprise risk management. Deliverables include ministry business and operational plans, risk reports, executive performance agreements, briefings and binders.

This work is required to meet the government's public accountability requirements under the Fiscal Planning and Transparency Act, with guidance and direction from Treasury Board and Finance, Executive Council and the Office of the Auditor General.

To be effective in this role, you need to be a strong communicator (verbally and in writing) and able to build relationships throughout the ministry to influence and support outcomes.
