Administrative Coordinator

Job description

In this role, you would keep the organization running on the administrative and development side, so that everyone else can focus on the people who walk through our doors. That means grant writing, managing the Executive Director’s schedule and communications, supporting governance, coordinating with partners and funders, and a multitude of other tasks.

Bilingualism in French and English is required; knowledge of an Indigenous language, primarily Cree or Inuktitut, is an asset
Strong written and oral communication skills in both languages
Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines simultaneously
Proactive problem solver who takes initiative and works well without close supervision
Ability to take direction from Indigenous leadership and work respectfully within an Indigenous-led organization
