Position Title: Outreach and Community Engagement Specialist 


Reports to: Director of Outreach and Stakeholder Relations 


Location: Greater Toronto Area (GTA), Canada. Mobile work, based from home; 

availability to attend events relevant to your role some of which may fall on 

occasional evenings and weekends. 


Position Status: Full-time (37 ½ hours per week) 


Closing Date: Open until filled, applications encouraged by October 10, 2025 


Are you passionate about making a difference in the education and lives of Canadian youth? 

Do you thrive on meeting new people, building relationships, and working towards shared goals? 

Are you excited about working with a mission-driven, high-performing team and having the 

flexibility to work primarily from home? If so, this exciting opportunity to contribute to raising young 

people’s confidence and interest in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) is for you! 


About You 

You are excited about building Scientists in School’s mission impact in Ontario and beyond, helping 

us step ever closer to our vision of reaching all children and youth in Canada with high-quality, 

hands-on STEM workshops. As a true “people person,” you have superior communication and 

organizational skills, and are customer-service oriented, with an ability to see situations from 

stakeholders’ viewpoints. You’re self-motivated and set strategic priorities, working collaboratively 

with your colleagues in the Outreach Team. You thrive in a results-oriented environment. With your 

prior experience building and stewarding stakeholder relations, you are just as comfortable in face-

to-face meetings as you are sending an email. A background or interest in education and/or STEM is 

an asset and will enhance your ability to connect with our mission and community. 


Who We Are and What We Can Achieve Together 

Scientists in School is a dynamic national charity dedicated to inspiring a love of STEM and environmental 

awareness in children and youth. Since 1989, we have been a crucial partner in elementary STEM education, 

delivering investigative in-person workshops that spark curiosity and foster youth interest, confidence, and 

STEM skills. We're focused on developing the bright minds and innovators needed for Canada's economic 

and social prosperity, and we do this through high-quality, fun, hands-on workshops, led by passionate and 

skilled STEM role models. In 2021, Scientists in School introduced richly investigative online workshops with 

topic-curated materials sent ahead for each student. This propelled national expansion from our longtime 

roots in Alberta and Ontario, and allow us to inclusively serve all elementary students in Canada. Last year, 

our visiting scientists engaged over 330,000 children and youth in more than 14,000 workshops across 

Canada, with a strong focus on amplifying participation of marginalized youth. Over 36 years, over 11 

million children and youth have experienced our hands-on workshops. Visit <a href="http://www.scientistsinschool.ca" target="_blank">www.scientistsinschool.ca</a> to 

learn more. 


The Opportunity 

At Scientists in School, we deeply value our team and are driven by the knowledge that our investigative 

<a href="http://www.scientistsinschool.ca/" target="_blank">http://www.scientistsinschool.ca/</a>

workshops for classrooms and community organizations make a meaningful, lasting impact on young lives. As 

the Outreach Specialist focussing on the GTA, you’ll play a key role in stewarding customer relationships with 

GTA school board staff including principals and teachers, while supporting our mission of igniting lasting 

scientific curiosity and confidence in children during their formative elementary school years. In addition, you 

will build our customer base for our community workshops, stewarding existing partnerships with libraries 

and youth centres, while also investigating new avenues to bring STEM programming to youth. You will 

quickly build both internal and external relationships, by using data-driven strategies to identify strategic 

priorities and leverage donor-funded experiences to deepen our relationships with school boards and 

community partners. Although the focus of this role is enhancing awareness of our on-site and online 

programs within the GTA, you will also support developing new relationships with potential school board 

partners across Canada. Reporting to the Director of Outreach and Stakeholder Relations, you'll collaborate 

with our Outreach team, Fund Development and Communications team, and Program team to coordinate and 

implement awareness-building strategies and build lasting relationships with key stakeholders. 


Responsibilities: 

 • Collaborate with the Director of Outreach and Stakeholder Relations to develop outreach strategies and 

growth initiatives that increase the number of participating schools and classes to optimize student STEM 

interest and confidence.

ensuring excellent customer service.

communities. 

 • Coordinate and plan placement of donor-sponsored workshops within schools, ensuring equitable and 

inclusive opportunities. 

 • Identify and reach out to potential new customers for both classroom and community workshop streams. 

 • Conduct regular outreach via phone and in-person visits to promote our programs. 

 • Collaborate with multiple teams to set measurable objectives and evaluate outreach effectiveness. 

 • Stay informed on STEM education trends and maintain a strong understanding of our programming. 

 • Promote a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion. 

 • Take on additional responsibilities as needed, including attending relevant events which may include 

teacher conferences, education conferences, Principal meetings, and donor visits including cheque 

presentations. 


Desired Competencies: 

 • Exceptional interpersonal, communication, and customer service skills. 

 • Strong relationship builder with the ability to communicate effectively and professionally with diverse 

stakeholders. 

 • Knowledge of STEM education and the ability to promote our programs enthusiastically. 

 • Demonstrated initiative, innovative thinking, and sound judgment. 

 • Strong project management skills with the ability to manage timelines and expectations. 

 • Capacity to work independently and collaboratively as part of a team. 


Education: 

A post-secondary degree in education, science, or business is preferred, or a combination of relevant education 

and experience. 


Additional Assets: 

 • Experience in the nonprofit sector, elementary education, or science education. 

 • Strong presentation skills for marketing booths and public events. 

 • Enjoy building and growing a project and its impact. 

 • Experience promoting a program or product successfully. 

 • Data-driven problem solver with experience working with databases. 


Additional Requirements: 

 • Satisfactory Police Records Check for the vulnerable sector. 

 • Willingness to work occasional evenings and/or weekends as needed. 


Benefits: 

We’re proud to offer a fast-paced and fun culture in a work environment that is supportive of the 

health, well-being and flexibility of the staff on our team! Our vacation policy provides three weeks of 

vacation after one year of service and scales up from there. As well, we close for the school Winter 

break period (typically from Christmas Day to New Years’ Day). 


Scientists in School offers a modest benefits package, including health care benefits, parental leave, 

life insurance, disability coverage, and matched RRSP contributions. This role is primarily remote, but 

you will be visiting schools and customers frequently. In addition, you will have ample opportunity to 

engage socially with your team! We have lunch socials online once a week, online engagement 

before our Town Halls, and special staff gatherings and team meetings at our Pickering office. You 

may also collaborate with colleagues or prepare for events at our Morriston office.
