At the Department of Opportunities and Social Development (OSD), we are a large and diverse department providing a broad portfolio of programs and services, including Child and Family Wellbeing (CFW), Income Assistance (IA), Supportive Housing and Homelessness, and the Disability Support Program (DSP).

The Disability Support Program (DSP) is committed to fostering innovative ways to empower individuals with disabilities to pursue their vision of a fulfilling life. We are on a journey to implement international best practices that uphold human rights and choice to enhance the way people engage with their communities. We envision Nova Scotia as a place where people with disabilities can choose the life they want to live, in communities that are welcoming, inclusive, and supportive. A life where individuals can build authentic relationships, explore their interests, and achieve their full potential as valued citizens in their community.

You have several years of experience implementing disability services and programs, as well as several years of experience directly managing or supervising a team. Your team-management experience includes responsibility for supporting employee performance, providing coaching and feedback, addressing workplace issues, and guiding employees through change.

You must also demonstrate:

Strong relationship management skills to partner with the community members and within your local area to develop and implement individual-specific services.
Leadership skills to help your team navigate through changes aligning with the new DSP framework.
Collaborative work experience to work alongside other Team Leads in maintaining equitable and standardized process for selection, onboarding, coaching and management of team members.
Skills in interpreting information, particularly pertaining to the DSP remedy, and providing expert guidance for program delivery and compliance.
Excellent interpersonal skills and empathy for conflict resolution and navigation in ambiguous situations.
