About this role

CHIMO: Where What You Do Matters for A Lifetime.

Includes some evenings and some Saturdays

Take a new program from paper to a place young adults love coming to.

Chimo's new Youth in Transition (YIT) Program is a hub for young adults aged 18 to 24 leaving government care: a weekly menu of drop-in sessions on everything from housing and money to healthy relationships, mental health and harm reduction, culture and careers, with food, a warm welcome and a help desk six days a week. Group programming opens in December, and we need someone to lead it.

What you'll do

- Build the weekly session calendar and make sure every session happens, staffed by familiar faces

- Supervise and coach a team of Program Facilitators, each with their own area of expertise

- Bring in Elders, Knowledge Keepers, guest speakers and partners to make sessions rich and relevant

- Keep the program on track, from attendance records and budgets to reporting

What you bring

- A diploma or degree in Child and Youth Care, Social Work, or a related human services field

- At least two years in the field, including planning and leading group programs for youth or young adults

- Supervisory experience

- Strong organization, and a plan B for when Saturday afternoon goes sideways

Good to know:   You'll need a clear Intervention Record and Police Information (Vulnerable Sector) checks. We provide the training you'll need before you start working with young adults.

We believe in supporting the people who make a difference every day. As a member of our team, you'll enjoy:

- Membership on a supportive team of skilled and passionate professionals dedicated to helping children, youth, and families reach their greatest potential.
