Marguerite's Place

OPPORTUNITY: Marguerite’s Place Program Coordinator

rebekah · June 28, 2022 ·

A day in the life of the Marguerite’s Place Program Coordinator could include anything from starting the day drafting plans to support a resident in working with a Managed Alcohol Program, planning for prison inreach visits in Clarenville, spending the afternoon writing a proposal for a garden space for residents, and supporting housing workers to gain new skills and develop new programming based on resident needs. No two days will be the same in this position, but it will be fulfilling, you will know you are doing important work, and you will be part of a team that believes in balance, harm reduction, and approaches all of their work with an intersectional feminist perspective. 

Closing Date: 15 March 2023, 6:00PM Newfoundland time.

Please email a cover letter and resume to: hiring@sjwomenscentre.ca 

Applications without a cover letter will not be considered.
