Reason for Porting: Backfill

Division: Public Affairs, Member Services & Communications

City: Ottawa, ON

Type of position: hybrid

Job Term: Permanent Full-time (35 hours per week)

Eligibility: Applicant must either be a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident eligible to work in Canada

The Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada (PIPSC), a national union representing over 80,000 professionals and scientists across Canada, is seeking a bilingual Communications Manager to join our team at our National Office in Ottawa.

PIPSC/IPFPC is committed to building an inclusive workplace where diversity of thought – and of people – are recognized, valued, and considered essential to achieving our goals and objectives. We are making concerted efforts to foster a workforce that is representative of our diverse membership. We strive to create a work environment that is welcoming to everyone regardless of their gender, age, religion, race, ethnicity, and nationality, particularly equity deserving groups, such as members of the IBPOC, 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, and people living with disabilities.

All qualified candidates will be considered; however, in support of achieving a diversified workforce we encourage applications for this opportunity from candidates belonging to one of the employment equity groups: Indigenous peoples (First Nations, Metis or Inuit), peoples of colour or persons with a disability. Consideration will be given to a qualified candidate who, at the time of application, voluntarily indicates being part of these groups.

Ensure effective coordination among communications functions and with other departments to support integrated campaigns, bargaining initiatives, government relations, organizing, member engagement and corporate priorities.
Develop and administer the Division’s operating budget and oversee contracts, procurement and the effective utilization of financial and human resources.
Monitor communications performance through media monitoring, digital and engagement analytics, stakeholder feedback, reporting and evaluation, and use findings to inform planning and continuous improvement.
Establish and maintain effective working relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including elected leaders, members, senior management, media, government representatives, labour organizations, communications partners and service providers.
Identify emerging communications trends, issues, opportunities and risks and recommend strategies to strengthen the Institute’s communications effectiveness and protect and enhance its reputation.
Participate in multidisciplinary teams assigned to special projects and work collaboratively with employees in other sections.
May be requested to undertake other related duties on a periodic basis.
