Land Acknowledgement
The Head Office of the Mental Health Commission of Canada is located on the unceded, traditional Territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabe Nation, in what is now called Ottawa, Ontario. We acknowledge that for thousands of years, the Algonquin People protected these lands, the Ottawa River Watershed, and its tributaries. As a national organization, we also acknowledge that we work on the traditional lands of many different nations. Today, a path to truth and reconciliation begins with recognizing both the stewardship and the sacrifices of the original peoples. We are committed to recognizing the errors of the past, acknowledging the challenges of the present, and contributing to a new and equitable relationship with the First Peoples.
The Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC) leads the development and dissemination of innovative programs and tools to support the mental health and wellness of Canadians. Through its unique mandate from the Government of Canada, the MHCC supports federal, provincial, and territorial governments as well as organizations in the implementation of sound public policy.
The Commission is seen as a leader nationally and internationally in several areas. Building upon the work done to date, the core mandate, and the unique position of the Commission, and guided by Changing Directions Changing Lives: The Mental Health Strategy for Canada, the Commission will focus in the areas of, substance use, suicide prevention, population-based initiatives, and engagement. This prioritization will enable the Commission to be successful in meeting its mandate, staying focused, and having a measurable impact for those living with mental illness and their families and caregivers.
MHCC has had remarkable growth over the past 15 years. Since its inception, the Commission has grown in its size, its focus, its scope of work, and its impact. The pandemic served as a further catalyst for this growth, with mental health gaining long overdue attention, and our work becoming even more critical. Since the current Executive Leadership Team (ELT) structure was established in 2016, our workforce has nearly tripled. That reality, coupled with an industry-wide scan of comparable organizations, affirmed that it was time we evolve our leadership team to keep up with our growth elsewhere. While ELT’s current form has served us well, we are introducing a new structure, including new Vice President roles, that will enable us to respond to ongoing and emerging needs, while putting the MHCC in a position to thrive.
As part of the Executive Leadership team, you will join us on our journey to help improve the mental health outcomes for people living in Canada. We're looking for compassionate, pragmatic leaders, who are keen to champion the MHCC's initiatives with our existing partners and stakeholders, while keeping an eye out for unexplored avenues of collaboration. And, finally, we're looking for those whose compelling voice will amplify our values and mission here at home, and on the world stage.
Reporting to the President and Chief Executive Officer (PCEO), the Vice President, People and Culture (VP) defines the People strategy for the MHCC that is aligned with and supports the organization’s objectives, business plans and long-term strategy. The VP will provide thought leadership across the organization in partnership with key stakeholders to establish equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) strategies, measurable EDI goals and objectives and will build leadership accountability through EDI KPIs and metrics. This portfolio will also include responsibility for organizational design and change management, as well as planning for both the challenges and opportunities for the future of work. The VP will provide guidance and strategic direction for all dimensions of the Commission impacting the organization’s structure, staffing, employee engagement, and employee relations.
Possessing exemplary interpersonal and communication skills and a high level of empathy and emotional intelligence, the VP will bring 10+ years of experience in a human resources and/or talent management role with 5+ years of senior leadership positions, ideally in the healthcare sector. Forward looking with a holistic approach, the VP will demonstrate excellent leadership, conflict resolution, and team-building skills; the ability to motivate, inspire trust and confidence, set goals, delegate, and ensure the accountability of colleagues. A related Masters degree is preferred and bilingual (English and French) is an asset.
