The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) honours the 1.7 million men and women of the Commonwealth forces who died in the First and Second World Wars, ensuring they will never be forgotten. Our work commemorates the war dead, from building and maintaining our cemeteries and memorials at 23,000 locations in more than 150 countries and territories to preserving our extensive records and archives. Our values and aims, laid out in 1917, are as relevant now as they were 100 years ago.

Highly organized with exceptional attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
Strong written and verbal communication skills and a genuine ability to connect with people.
Comfortable learning new systems and working with databases and digital tools.
A proactive, self‑motivated mindset of someone who anticipates needs, solves problems, and takes initiative.
Collaborative spirit with the flexibility to adapt to changing situations and emerging priorities.

What We Offer

A Mission with Purpose. Contribute to an international effort that honours the fallen and preserves history for generations. Your work supports remembrance on a national and global scale.
A Supportive, Engaged Team. Be part of a passionate, collaborative team across Canada, the Americas, and the Pacific where professionals and volunteers are united by shared values of Commitment, Ambition, Respect, and Excellence. We are proud and committed to ensuring we bring this to life every day, for ourselves, each other and those who lost their lives.
Professional Growth & Development. You will receive support to develop your skills in volunteer management, event coordination, communications, and heritage stewardship.
Competitive Compensation and Benefits. including matching RRSP, comprehensive health care plan including Tele-medicine services and a Health Care Spending Account, plus generous paid annual and sick leave
