Program Coordinator for Next Up Winnipeg
You are here
Next Up is an intense leadership program for young people committed to social and environmental justice. We currently have programs in Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Saskatoon and Ottawa. The program examines many social change topics combining theory, practice, deep thinking and hard skills.
The program provides participants with a look at some of the most pressing domestic and foreign policy issues and where “progressive” thinking is at on these issues. It will ground participants in how change is made in society. Participants will meet innovative change-makers in Manitoba— from the non-profit, public and private sectors who are all working for a better world.
We are seeking a focused, passionate, motivated and organized person to be our Winnipeg Program Coordinator. The role demands excellent organizational skills and a good knowledge of group dynamics, facilitation and project management.
This is a part-time (15 hours a week) contract position from December 1st, 2014 through May 31, 2015. The position is remunerated at a rate of $21.50/hour.
The deadline for applications is Friday November 14th, 2014 at 11:00pm. Interviews will take place in Winnipeg on November 24th and the successful candidate should be available to come to Vancouver for training the first week of December.
We welcome and value the contributions that individuals who identify as members of marginalized communities bring to our organization, and encourage Indigenous people, people of colour, women, people identifying as LGBTQI, members of ethnic minorities, immigrants and people with disabilities to apply.
