You have experience working in the non-profit sector and are passionate to work for an organization that helps ignite potential for youth in your community. You are a person who enjoys being the first point of contact for an organization. You enjoy working with a variety of people to help support your team and an organization as a whole. You are someone who is open to learning new skills and is detail orientated. You have excellent administration skills, strong database and IT knowledge, and enjoy being the owner of the organizational client and volunteer database.

Join us during one of the most exciting times of the year as we prepare for our signature fundraising gala, Big Sisters Soirée, and support the philanthropic efforts that help empower girls and gender-diverse youth across the Lower Mainland. This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys bringing people together, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and loves keeping the details organized behind meaningful events and initiatives.

You are passionate about mentoring girls and gender diverse and Two Spirit youth. It’s your mission to create
quality group programs and support our volunteer mentors so they can work towards helping participants
develop a positive self-image and boost their self-esteem. You are a positive person who demonstrates selfawareness and has strong communication and presentation skills. You enjoy engaging with members of the
community to build relationships that lead to potential partnerships or opportunities for youth and volunteer
recruitment. You understand that monitoring mentoring relationships and instilling trust between volunteer
mentors and program participants is key to ensuring safe and healthy mentoring relationships.

Big Sisters’ group mentoring programs include My Voice, My Power! and our flagship program, Go Girls! Healthy
Bodies, Healthy Minds. My Voice, My Power! is a newly launched after-school mentoring program designed to
support gender-based violence prevention through group mentorship activities. Go Girls! Healthy Bodies, Healthy
Minds focuses on promoting positive self-esteem, confidence, friendships, active living, and more.

These programs are currently tailored for students in grades 4–7 and are open to self-identified girls, as well as
non-binary, trans, and Two Spirit youth. The Group Mentoring team is seeking an energetic, responsible, and
positive individual with a strong commitment to our mission to join us. Our ideal candidate will bring a creative
approach to program development, implementation, and monitoring, including the recruitment and screening of
volunteers. They will oversee the overall operations and functions of all Group Mentoring Programs, ensuring
their success and impact.
