Established in 2000, the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers is the regulatory body for over 26,000 social workers and social service workers across Ontario. The College serves and protects the public by regulating the practice of the professions and promoting ethical and professional practice. It does this by maintaining a public register; setting requirements for entry to practice; establishing and maintaining standards of practice; ensuring that members engage in ongoing learning; and maintaining rigorous complaints and discipline processes.
As the College looks to the future and to its strategic priorities, it is seeking a Director, Human Resources to develop and lead its people and culture strategy and vision. Reporting to the Registrar & CEO and working collaboratively with the College’s management team, the Director will drive cultural transformation and employee engagement; implement HR policies, practices, systems, and processes that support a healthy workplace and culture of continuous improvement; and promote diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives across the organization.
