Summary

Working at Fanshawe College

Fanshawe College is committed to the principles of hybrid work and may offer this option to employees whose work can be performed in an alternate location, without adverse impact to the operations of the College, inclusive of our Student and Staff experience. Confirmation of hybrid work options available to you will be clarified upon hire and may be subject to change based on the duties required of your position. Successful candidates will be required to perform work within Ontario and must be available to work on campus, as required.

Note: This is a full-time Support position (35 hours per week).

Duties: To support Fanshawe's commitment to address and dismantle systems of oppression experienced by equity-deserving/denied communities – including racialized persons; First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities; persons with disabilities; members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community; and women-identified individuals – the Equity and Transformational Change Advisor will be instrumental in driving and supporting the College's anti-racism, anti-oppression, equity, diversity, and inclusion ( EDI ) strategy and operational planning. As the College works to implement "A College Where We Belong: Fanshawe's EDI Framework" and forthcoming multi-year EDI Action Plan, the Equity and Transformational Change Advisor will be an integral resource for the College's staff and leaders in providing strategic research and guidance grounded in lived experience, theoretical frameworks, academic and professional theory, diverse knowledges, and practical knowledge gleaned from community experiences and relationships. As a core member of the College's EDI team, the Advisor will report to the Director of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, and will have a dedicated focus on identifying pathways to transformational, sustainable, and justice-informed systemic change. The Advisor will serve as a core advisor and support to the Director in planning and executing strategic and operational plans in core performance areas relating to EDI , antiracism, and anti-oppression. They will also serve as a resource to EDI -related committees and working groups at the College, provide support to College leaders in researching, assessing, and implementing equity-informed changes to policy and procedure, and provide support to the EDI team in delivering training, education, and initiatives and projects. The Equity and Transformational Change Advisor will blend change management processes with intersectional equity frameworks. In doing so, they will advise the Director on bringing together various anti-oppressive lenses and will thus bring rich experience in bridging equity efforts and decolonial efforts and an ability to forge authentic and sustainable relationships with equity-deserving communities with a range of perspectives on bringing about transformative change. The incumbent will work in a highly collaborative fashion with other members of the EDI team and other college project teams, while bringing to the role a high capacity for independent work and critical thought. The Equity and Transformational Change Advisor will be passionate about the College's mission of advancing a sense of belonging for equity-deserving students, staff, and faculty. The Advisor will be a visible presence of the EDI team and will serve as a positive, inspiring, and motivating ambassador for EDI work at the College and a respected advisor on equitable change. Given the subject matter of the role, preference will be given to candidates who self-identify as a member of an equity-deserving group and can speak to the impact of systemic inequity and oppression in their own lived experience.
