Associate Regional Director, Lake Ontario Region, Canada

At BBYO, we're motivated by our mission, inspiring us to reimagine work to make it fun, flexible, and fulfilling. We are looking for a passionate BBYO Associate Regional Director (ARD) to join our team and make a difference. As an ARD, you'll play a pivotal role in the success of BBYO by working closely with teens in Lake Ontario Region (Toronto, Vaughan, Hamilton, and Ottawa) to create strong programs, develop leadership skills, and make their chapters great for Jewish teens. Alongside your teammates, you'll connect in a dynamic environment and create a positive impact on teens, our community, and the world.

You
You love working with teens. You're creative, quick on your feet, and you like your job to change every day. You're not the kind of person who wants to sit behind a desk. You have an infectious personality and you love getting others to join you in changing the world. You're a problem solver, skilled at juggling multiple priorities at once, and you enjoy being a part of a team.

Us
We're a global network of passionate professionals working to amplify Jewish teen life worldwide. We are the Jewish community's largest and fastest growing pluralistic platform for reaching and inspiring Jewish teens, built on 100 years of storied history. We do this challenging and invigorating work through our partners in more than 725 local, teen-led chapters across more than 65 countries, at hundreds of weekend retreats during the school year and across a rapidly growing suite of global exchanges, campaigns, and movement initiatives all year-round. Over the summer, we run dozens of immersive experiences including extensive Israel travel, missions and community tours across six continents, and a myriad of leadership camps. Our team is strong, agile, creative, inclusive and every day is different by design. We are fast-paced, high-energy, and results-driven, and we enjoy working together almost as much as we believe in the mission we are chasing together.
