Hiring: Outreach and Communications Coordinator<br />
Organization: HCi3 <br />
Location/hours: Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM). A hybrid or primarily work-from-home arrangement is possible, but this job will involve engaging with people around the city so you’ll need to be available for in-person meetings and events as necessary. Having your own mode of transportation is not necessary. If you choose to work in the office, our base is at EfficiencyOne’s office in Burnside. <br />
<br />
Are you interested in working towards an inclusive net zero future while actively promoting equity and reconciliation? The Halifax Climate Investment, Innovation, and Impact Fund (HCi3) is looking for an Outreach and Communications Coordinator to join our small and dynamic team. At HCi3, we are committed to investing in a net-zero Halifax/Kjipuktuk for everyone, including communities that have historically faced environmental injustice and systemic racism. As a team member, you will have the opportunity to drive climate action, build partnerships, promote equity and reconciliation, and make strategic grants and investments with an intentional focus on addressing systemic racism and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion.<br />
<br />
About HCi3<br />
<br />
The Halifax Climate Investment, Innovation, and Impact (HCi3) Fund supports carbon reduction initiatives in the Halifax/Kjipuktuk region through a collaborative and “multi-solving” approach. We’re looking at how we can reduce greenhouse gas emissions through financing scalable solutions, building community and Nation climate capacity, supporting equity, contributing to reconciliation, and providing other community and environmental benefits.<br />
<br />
HCi3 was established in 2020 as one of seven Low Carbon City Canada (LC3) centers. We are a subsidiary of EfficiencyOne, a national leader in the design and delivery of resource efficiency programs and services. HCi3 draws on the national expertise of the LC3 network and the experience of EfficiencyOne to drive innovation and share knowledge locally and nationally.<br />

• Establishing and nurturing authentic relationships with under-represented and Indigenous communities to encourage their active and meaningful participation in HCi3's programs and other climate action initiatives.<br />
• Supporting the integration of equity and reconciliation principles into HCi3's programs and communications to ensure that we are actively fighting against systemic racism and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion.<br />
• Providing crucial administrative support to the HCi3 team, including the implementation of the grant program, and organizing/partnering to plan and host events and workshops.<br />
• Depending on their expertise, the coordinator may also conduct research into innovative climate financing solutions through an equity lens.<br />
• Other responsibilities as needed.<br />
<br />
