• Represent the organization in a professional manner
• Reports to the Executive Team and the Administrative Director
Qualifications

• Self-motivated but also able to take direction
• Good judge of character; experience recruiting, hiring, and training an asset.
• Good basic math and accounting skills
• Former canvassing or sales experience an asset
