Durham Community Health Centre (DCHC) is a registered charitable organization delivering 
integrated, accessible, and equitable primary care, health promotion, and community wellness 
services across Durham Region. We support individuals who face systemic barriers to their health 
and wellbeing—particularly priority populations such as Indigenous and Black communities, 
2SLGBTQI individuals, newcomers, seniors, and unsheltered population. 

DCHC provides both preventive and responsive care through an interdisciplinary team that 

includes physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, counselors, dietitians, outreach workers, medical 
secretaries, and administrative staff. Our person-centered model of care ensures that services are 
tailored to meet individual needs.

information is available at <a href="http://www.durhamchc.ca" target="_blank">www.durhamchc.ca</a>. 

We are seeking a qualified consultant to support the development of our next 5-year Strategic Plan. 
Our current plan was developed in 2022. While our mission, vision, and strategic pillars will remain 
largely unchanged, this planning process will focus on assessing achievements since 2022 and 

developing updated organizational goals and objectives. Importantly, it will also serve as a 
foundation for strengthening and building DCHC’s brand—anchored in our mission, vision, and 
values as well as our mandate—to enhance our identity, visibility, and impact within the community 
we serve.

Request for Proposals for DCHC Strategic Plan 2026

Now Hiring: Chief Financial Officer (CFO) 

 
Location: 25 Capston Drive, Mississauga (Hybrid: 2–3 days/week in-office) 
Application Deadline: September 10, 2025 
Salary Range: Competitive salary + pension, generous vacation, and career-shaping impact 

The Opportunity 

This is not your typical CFO role and Peel CAS is not your typical organization. 

As one of the largest Children’s Aid Societies in Ontario, Peel CAS is leading transformation in one 
of the province’s most complex public systems: child welfare, a system as foundational to society 
as health care, education, and justice. We’re combining bold mission work with innovation, 
insights, and partnerships to drive lasting, community-centered change. We are future-focused 
with a balanced budget, sustainable financial plan, and a strong track record of stability and 
growth. 

We are seeking a game-changing finance leader to join our Executive Team as Chief Financial 
Officer, reporting to the CEO. We are looking for someone who brings financial depth and strategic 
creativity, a commitment to public purpose, and the mindset of a builder, collaborator, and 
innovator. 

If you're energized by mission, growth, and impact and ready to bring your finance leadership to the 
forefront of systems change, this is your moment. 

Why This Role Is a Rare Opportunity 

 • Make a real difference. You’ll directly support services that impact the lives of children, 
youth, and families every day. 

 • Shape a sector and a system. Join a team that’s rewriting the playbook on how child 
welfare can operate, more community-driven, preventative, and innovative. 

 • Bring your full leadership range. Finance, strategic planning, innovation, partnership 
building, DEI and reconciliation, this is a full-spectrum leadership role. 

 • Be part of something future-focused. From revenue diversification to AI and automation 
and public-private partnerships, we are building capacity for long-term transformation. 

 • Enjoy wellness centered benefits. Competitive salary, OMERS pension, robust vacation 
package, a flexible hybrid work model and personalized leadership development. 


 
 
What You’ll Lead 

As CFO, you will: 

 • Serve as the financial strategist and advisor to the CEO, Board, and senior leaders, 
overseeing all financial operations including budgeting, forecasting, risk management, 
financial reporting, and long-term financial planning 

 • Drive fund diversification through new revenue models, innovative public-private 
partnerships, and grants 

 • Drive systems innovation including process improvement, automation, and emerging tech 

 • Play a leadership role in cross-sector initiatives and community events 

 • Champion DEI and Truth &amp; Reconciliation in all aspects of leadership 

 • Support and steward our relationship with our Foundation 

Who We’re Looking For 

 • A seasoned, strategic, forward-thinking finance executive with deep expertise in financial 
operations, planning, and governance 

 • Experience with public funding, social impact, or cross-sector partnerships is a plus, 
alignment with our mission and ambition is essential 

 • A relationship builder and collaborator who leads with innovation, navigates complexity, 
and builds trust across systems, leading with integrity 

 • A CPA is required. We welcome candidates with backgrounds in public, nonprofit, private, 
or consulting environments. Diverse experience is a strength 

This is a planned transition. Our current CFO is stepping into a new opportunity and will continue to 
support the organization during the transition period.

$80M+ and a bold ambition to drive systems change while focusing on the safety and wellbeing of 
the children, youth and families we serve. We are reimagining child welfare with preventative, 
community-driven, evidence-based and equity-centered solutions. We operate in one of the 
fastest-growing regions in the country and serve thousands of children, youth, and families each 
year with care, compassion, and integrity. We're proud to be recognized as an innovative systems 
leader. 


 
 
Here’s some of what sets us apart: 

 • Early Help and Prevention Focus: One of the lowest children in care rates in Canada 

 • Innovative Leadership: First child welfare agency in Ontario to lead a Youth Wellness Hub 

 • Revenue Growth &amp; Diversification: Securing investments, partnerships, and non-traditional 
funding to grow impact

hub to expand access and support 

 • National Reach: Home to the Child Welfare Immigration Centre of Excellence (CWICE), 
expanding knowledge and support across Canada
