Director, Philanthropy and EngagementStatement of IntentionAt Feed Nova Scotia, we prioritize cultivating a diverse and inclusive workforce, understanding its critical role in driving innovation and fostering a sense of belonging. Our commitment extends to creating a work environment that authentically represents the communities we serve.We actively encourage submissions from those identifying as African Nova Scotian, Mi’kmaq, Black, racialized, Indigenous/First Nation, a person with disability, 2SLGBTQIA+, and newcomers to Canada. We invite you to share this information in your cover letter or resume, and we encourage you to include your preferred pronouns.Moreover, we collaborate closely with the P4G search team, who are dedicated to creating a safe space for you to openly discuss your experiences, preferences, and any accommodations that may support you. This partnership ensures that your information is handled with sensitivity and respect.HistoryFeed Nova Scotia opened its doors in 1984 as the Metro Food Bank Society, with the mandate to provide emergency food relief within Metro Halifax. The volunteer staff served 12 member food banks and meal programs. In 2002, at the request of our member agencies, Metro Food Bank Society became the umbrella organization for food banks across the province. In 2005, we rebranded as Feed Nova Scotia.After over 30 years in operation, Feed Nova Scotia recognizes that the need is growing, and they can’t feed their way out of it. While Feed Nova Scotia continues to address food insecurity by supplying emergency food support, it is also working to find long-term solutions to hunger and poverty in Nova Scotia.About Feed Nova ScotiaFood is not the solution to food insecurity.People need support today. Knowing this, Feed Nova Scotia collects and distributes approximately three million kilograms of food annually to 140 member food banks, meal programs, and shelters across the province. This equates to over $1 million worth of food each month. It also supports its member agencies as they build capacity to serve their communities.While Feed Nova Scotia helps Nova Scotians meet a very basic need, it raises awareness of the root causes of food insecurity — things like systemic racism, low wages, inadequate income support, and unaffordable housing. Feed Nova Scotia advocates for sustainable, policy-based solutions that will allow everyone to live a life of dignity and prevent anyone from relying on charitable band-aids to address human rights.This Moment, This PositionFeed Nova Scotia is in an important phase of growth and evolution as we strengthen our commitment to addressing the root causes of food insecurity and advancing equity, inclusion, and belonging in everything we do. We’ve built a strong foundation in philanthropy and engagement, connecting with communities, donors, and partners in meaningful ways that amplify our mission and deepen our impact.We are seeking a Director of Philanthropy &amp; Engagement to build upon this foundation and guide the next stage of our work, leading a talented team across fundraising, marketing, communications, and community engagement. Reporting to the Executive Director and serving as a key member of the senior leadership team, the Director develops and implements multi-year strategies to grow sustainable revenue, expand community reach, and strengthen interest holder engagement.This is a pivotal opportunity for a collaborative and forward-thinking leader who can help shape how we connect with our community, strengthen relationships, and inspire lasting support for our mission. The Director will champion innovation, storytelling, and partnership-building to inspire transformative support from donors, partners, and the broader community. As Feed Nova Scotia continues to evolve toward a food justice and systems- change mandate, this leader will embed the principles of Justice, Equity, Decolonization, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDDI) throughout all engagement and fundraising efforts, ensuring our stories and partnerships reflect the diversity and lived experiences of the communities we serve.At this moment, we’re looking for someone who can bring clarity, creativity, and care to the work of inspiring others to join us. By nurturing authentic connections, driving innovative campaigns, and fostering a culture of collaboration and purpose, the Director of Philanthropy &amp; Engagement will play a vital role in advancing our shared vision of a Nova Scotia where everyone has reliable access to food and the dignity, security, and belonging that come with it.How You’ll ContributeThe Director of Philanthropy &amp; Engagement will provide leadership and strategic direction across Feed Nova Scotia’s fundraising, marketing, communications, and community engagement portfolios.
