Description

Are you a strong people leader who cultivates a culture of innovation, engagement and collaboration? If so, the Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development invites you to consider this opportunity to lead a dynamic team in the delivery of employment programs and services to the public.

At the Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development, inclusion and diversity are priorities.

We strive to create an inclusive workplace, free from bias and discrimination, that allows all employees to contribute their unique skills and capabilities.

Our focus is on providing employment and training services to citizens across the province of Ontario.

We are seeking an individual who finds fulfillment in strengthening our ability to provide a diverse network of community-based agencies that deliver skills training, employment preparation, literacy, and basic skills services to youth and adults across Ontario.

About the Division:

The Employment and Training Division supports programs and services that ensure a skilled workforce by providing apprenticeship training and services to ensure Ontario has the skills to compete and succeed.

We prepare unemployed Ontarians to enter or re-enter the workforce and help students find summer employment. We provide literacy, numeracy, and basic skills upgrading to assist people in entering or re-entering the workforce.

We help internationally trained individuals successfully integrate into the economy, provide assistance to workers facing business closures or other significant workforce adjustments, and provide policy, planning, and research support on labour market and training matters.
