Description

Department of Aquatic Resources & Fisheries Management
Climate Change Adaptation Coordinator

The Confederacy of Mainland Mi'kmaq (CMM) is a Tribal Council representing the eight Mi'kmaq communities of mainland Nova Scotia.

Our mission is to proactively promote and assist Mi'kmaq communities' initiatives towards self-determination and enhancement of community.

The CMM's Department of Aquatic Resources & Fisheries Management (DARFM) is currently looking for a motivated and knowledgeable candidate to fill the role of Climate Change Adaptation Coordinator.

Reporting to the Director of the Department of Aquatic Resources & Fisheries Management you as the Climate Change Adaptation Coordinator will be based out of CMMs office in Millbrook, NS.

You will work under the guidance of the Program Manager in DARFM and will also work with and be supported by adaptation specialists at the Nova Scotia Department of Environment and Climate Change (ECC).

You will be responsible for coordinating the implementation of Nova Scotia's water sector's 2023 Climate Change Adaptation Strategy, by bringing together stakeholder organizations representing governments, industries, researchers, environmental organizations, etc.

The water sector adaptation strategy encompasses all of Nova Scotia's inland waters, freshwater ecosystems, and the watersheds on which they depend.

The strategy addresses climate impacts to the water sector, by building the water sector's capacity to meet the freshwater needs of ecosystems, communities, and economies – all under the influence of climate change – while addressing competing demands for a finite resource as well as current inequitable access to water services.

You will spend time working with different organizations and play an important role in a broader climate change adaptation community of practice supporting Nova Scotia in climate change.

While you will have a structured process and tools to draw from, you will be able to customize the process and materials to suit the focus and context of the water sector.

Leading and supporting the water sector implementation teams through workplan development and approval, and the planning and execution of projects.

Ensure the project meets deadlines and deliverables. Track project budgets and draft progress reports

Actively engage and listen to the needs of the partners while building and maintaining strong sustainable multi-stakeholder teams.
Bachelor's degree in a relevant field to the water sector (e.g., environmental policy, freshwater biology, or others)
Related work experience or lived experience or an equivalent combination of training and experience relating to the water sector
Experience in and/or respect for working in and with First Nation communities
Proficiency in MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.)

The following requirements are considered assets:
Experience in designing and facilitating interactive and engaging meetings/workshops, project coordination and management, budgeting/finances and report writing
