Executive Director

In 1976, five prominent writers — Margaret Atwood, Pierre Berton, Graeme Gibson, Margaret Laurence, and David Young — founded Writers’ Trust to ensure that Canadian writing would continue to thrive for the benefit of all readers. Writers' Trust has built on this mission over the past 40 years, elevating our country’s writers to amplify the empathetic, imaginative Canadian voices that can change worlds far beyond our own border.

Writers’ Trust is one of a handful of organization of its kind in the world, committed to championing Canadian writers at every stage of their careers through a portfolio of programs including 12 literary awards, financial grants, career development initiatives for emerging writers, and a writers’ retreat. Writers’ Trust programming is designed to champion excellence in Canadian writing, to improve the status of writers, and to create connections between writers and readers.

It is within this context that Writers’ Trust is seeking to recruit its next Executive Director (ED).

Reporting to the Board of Directors, the ED provides strategic, operational, and administrative oversight to the work of the organization. The ED represents Writers’ Trust externally, strengthens its profile as one of Canada’s most formidable literary organizations, and steers the organization’s growth and revenue diversification strategies. The ED leads a small team of ten motivated and highly accomplished professionals, fosters a collaborative culture that encourages innovative thinking, and shares Writers’ Trust’s mission to advance, nurture, and celebrate Canadian writers and writing. The ED understands ‘the big picture’, finding creative, strategic, and practical solutions to complex problems and ensures that Writers’ Trust is properly situated to meet future challenges.

As the ideal candidate, you are an inspiring, respected, and trusted non-profit executive with the strategic foresight and entrepreneurial spirit to position an organization for ongoing success and impact. You offer Writers’ Trust a bold vision and the energy it needs to achieve its mission, and you will constantly seek to maximize opportunities as the organization expands and innovates. Your personal and professional credibility and domestic and global networks will serve you well as you fortify Writers’ Trust’s current partnerships and donor relationships and seek to develop new ones. You are a gifted communicator with exceptional interpersonal and networking skills, and you have a proven track record in fostering collaborations and strategic partnerships with donors in the private sector, foundations, government funding entities, and other NGOs. You are known as a clear and inclusive leader who motivates teams to achieve ambitious results. Your experience in a comparable arts & culture organization would be an asset, as would your language proficiency in both English and French.

To apply for this position, please submit your application and related materials to John Caminiti and Alain Pescador at apescador@boyden.com. Please include “Writers’ Trust Executive Director” in the subject line of your e-mail.

We thank all applicants for their interest, however only those under consideration for the role will be contacted.

Co-direction générale/Direction administrative

Organisme de création/production, DLD s’investit auprès de créateurs de la danse et des arts de la scène profondément engagés dans leur recherche artistique. Portée par la voix de son directeur artistique, la compagnie offre un accompagnement personnalisé et stratégique pour faire rayonner des paroles de créateurs ici et à l’international. DLD contribue au renforcement de sa communauté par la réalisation de projets structurants.
DLD souhaite voir un monde où la danse de création touche tous les publics et où les artistes sont pleinement valorisés et soutenus dans la pratique de leur art.

Valeurs de la compagnie

・Faire preuve d'audace et d'engagement
・Démontrer de la résilience et de la persévérance
・Développer son savoir-faire
・DLD prend à cœur de travailler à trouver l'équilibre entre les aspirations et les responsabilités de toutes les personnes employées par l’organisme et toutes celles travaillant en collaboration avec lui, incluant les artistes parrainés, les partenaires de diffusion, etc... Cette recherche d’équilibre est un processus en continu.
・DLD s’engage aussi dans une réflexion constante sur la pertinence de ses actions et de ses valeurs, cherchant à la fois à exprimer une voie artistique forte tout en étant en phase avec les préoccupations sociales de sa communauté.

Que veut dire DLD ?

2018 – Après 27 années à la tête de la compagnie, Daniel Léveillé, chorégraphe et fondateur de Daniel Léveillé nouvelle danse, quitte ses fonctions de directeur artistique et cède sa place à Frédérick Gravel. La compagnie utilise dès lors la formule écourtée « DLD » pour appuyer cet important changement. DLD pour Daniel Léveillé danse mais aussi pour De la danse ..., la danse et tout ce qui peut en dériver.

À propos de Frédérick Gravel, directeur artistique

Frédérick Gravel est diplômé du Département de danse de l’Université du Québec à Montréal, où il déposait, en 2009, son mémoire de maîtrise portant sur « le rôle de l’artiste en danse dans la société démocratique ». Chorégraphe, danseur, musicien et éclairagiste, il bouscule les structures de l’art chorégraphique et y intègre divers éléments liés au rock et à la performance. Créateur associé à la compagnie DLD dès 2010, il en est nommé directeur artistique en 2018.
Ses productions – Gravel Works (2008), Tout se pète la gueule, chérie (2010), Usually Beauty Fails (2012), This Duet That We’ve Already Done (so many times) (2015), Some Hope for the Bastards (2017) et Fear and Greed (2019) – sont saluées par la critique d’ici et d’ailleurs. Les pièces Ainsi parlait... (2013) et Logique du pire (2016) sont le résultat d’une fructueuse collaboration avec l’auteur Étienne Lepage. En février 2015, il présentait le Cabaret Gravel Cabaret avec une vingtaine d’artistes invités, dont le groupe Dear Criminals et le Quatuor Molinari. Étant toujours là où on ne l’attend pas, il fut également le chorégraphe des spectacles Mutantès et Amours, délices et orgues de Pierre Lapointe (2008 et 2017). En 2021, la compagnie nationale norvégienne Carte blanche l'invitait à créer une nouvelle oeuvre chorégraphique. Cette dernière création pour 14 danseurs fut titrée But Then, We'll Disappear (I'd Prefer Not To).
Assumant une véritable transversalité culturelle et disciplinaire, les productions de Frédérick Gravel sont créées en étroite collaboration avec les membres du Grouped’ArtGravelArtGroup (GAG), un collectif à géométrie variable de danseurs et musiciens. De plus en plus actif comme pédagogue, Frédérick Gravel donne régulièrement des ateliers de création, en plus d’enseigner au département de théâtre du CÉGEP de Saint-Hyacinthe, à l’Université du Québec à Montréal et à l’École de danse contemporaine de Montréal. Frédérick Gravel fut également membre fondateur de La 2e porte à gauche, plateforme chorégraphique spécialisée dans l’exploration et la recherche en danse.
En 2022, il co-réalise le film Gravel (re)Works, court métrage en forme d’album.

L'équipe de gestion sous sa gouverne est composée de 5 personnes. Enfin, elle partage avec la direction artistique/co-direction générale le rôle de porte-parole de la compagnie.

Senior Project Manager

Nordicity (Vancouver office) acknowledges that it is founded on the unceded territories of the Coast Salish Peoples, including the territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

The Organization
Nordicity is an international consultancy providing private and public-sector clients with solutions in the areas of Economic Analysis, Strategy and Business, and Policy and Regulation across four priority sectors: arts, culture, and heritage; digital and creative media; information and communication technologies (ICTs); and, innovation. With offices in Vancouver, Toronto, and London (UK), Nordicity has—for the past 40 years and counting—been providing its clients with the tools and insights required to adapt, evolve, and thrive in markets that iteratively change. With the confluence of activity unfolding in today’s global economy, Nordicity’s services—known for being solutions-focused and bespoke—are particularly relevant to the sectors and clients that the organization serves.

The Opportunity
Nordicity is adding a Senior Project Manager to its growing team. Reporting to the Partner in charge of Nordicity’s Vancouver office, and working closely with Managers, Directors, and Partners from across the firm, the successful candidate is primarily responsible for contributing to project management, analysis, and reporting (both in written and verbal form) across numerous Nordicity engagements. In their role, the candidate will lead the delivery of several concurrent projects in partnership with teams found across Nordicity’s offices. As part of the firm’s Project Management Committee, the successful candidate will draw upon their systems and operations experience to ensure that processes linked to Nordicity’s client engagements undergo continuous improvement analysis.

The salary for the position of Senior Project Manager is approximately $75,000, and the context of work is hybrid/remote (with the successful hire working from Nordicity’s Vancouver office location when not working from home).

Qualifications
Among the qualifications being sought in candidates, the incoming leader must have a deep and abiding commitment to advancing reconciliation, equity, diversity, and inclusion in all its forms and must believe, intrinsically, in the importance of leading
with curiosity and welcoming ideas that can later be synthesized and turned into possibility. While all candidates are encouraged to apply and, in so doing, share how they see themselves adding value to the Nordicity environment, the following credentials and/or experiences are seen as possible markers of the candidates most likely to realize success in the role: A) a reputation for being highly organized, with the ability to effectively prioritize tasks among a variety of competing priorities; B) a critical thinker, someone who routinely adds value to project teams and clients given their ability to connect the dots; C) a strong communicator, both in verbal and written form, with a track record of successfully managing multiple projects; D) a people-person who finds team-based projects both energizing and impactful; and, E) a degree from a recognized post-secondary institution, or the equivalent combination of education and professional work experience.

How to Apply
Nordicity encourages Indigenous Peoples, people of colour, people with diverse abilities, people of diverse sexual orientation, gender identity or expression (LGBTQ2S+), as well as others who may reflect Canada’s diverse population to apply. Interested applicants can send their resume to Jason Murray by e-mailing jmurray@bipocsearch.com, or can apply through the BIPOC Executive Search mobile app.

Nordicity is also committed to developing an inclusive, barrier-free selection process and work environment. Please advise Jason Murray at the e-mail address above if you require accommodations during the process.
