With equal parts detective, author, artist, and hound-dog, the successful candidate will have a proven success record in fund development. In this critical role, the Fundraising Coordinator will thrive under pressure as they are involved in all parts of the organization’s fundraising and business development activities.

In addition, because The Natural Step Canada has a limited number of staff and because special circumstances may arise requiring unique activities, this position may require undertaking special initiatives, such as assisting with special events or special projects (e.g. writing articles, individual donor requests, marketing, and outreach).
