Build a consistent and respectful donor experience that connects supporters to the impact of adult literacy in Hamilton.

People, HR and change leadership

Lead, coach and support staff through clear expectations, regular feedback, professional development and fair performance management.

Lead workforce planning, recruitment, employment practices and organizational change in accordance with legislation and HLC policies.

Build an accountable, collaborative, inclusive and safe culture and champion meaningful volunteer engagement, recognition and support.
