We provide integrated primary health care, mental health, substance use, health promotion and community development services to people facing some of life's greatest challenges. Our clients include people experiencing homelessness, newcomers, members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, seniors, people living with complex health needs, and many others who experience barriers to care.

• Understand the importance of balancing organizational mission with long-term financial sustainability.
• Never lose sight of the people and communities behind the numbers.

Our ideal Director of Finance combines progressive finance leadership experience with strong technical accounting expertise and sharp business judgment. They are driven by improvement, trusted by colleagues, and ready to partner closely with the CEO and senior leadership team to help shape the next chapter of our organization's growth and success.

Experience in healthcare, community organizations, or the not-for-profit sector is an asset, but what matters most is your willingness to roll up your sleeves, solve complex problems, and build strong, trusting relationships.
