We're On A Hiring Spree!



I love Souls Harbour so much.  After having 100% staff retention for 2 years straight during the pandemic, we are seeing expansion and of course, some are moving on to new seasons in life.  I love each person dearly, but it's not realistic to expect everyone to stay forever in one job.  I'm just so grateful that when push came to shove, our team had staying power, and never gave up on keeping our doors open to be ready to serve.

Here's our current job lineup, with more to come in Sydney, Cape Breton and...?!

POSITION FILLED.  WELCOME JOSHUA! 

1. Data Care Specialist - Are you a stickler for rules?  Do you love it when your pencils are perfectly aligned, with all the erasers facing the same way?  Do you type 60 words a minute on a slow day?  Are you a whiz with spreadsheets or databases?  Do you enjoy serving in the background?

If you find yourself nodding in agreement, then you may be right for our brand new Data Care Specialist role!

As a Data Care Specialist, you’re part of the Souls Harbour Rescue Mission development team. Working under the leadership of the Chief Development Officer and using the Silent Partner CRM, you will ensure donations are processed with perfection!  You will also receive donations through phone calls, e-transfers, and in person.
