About ACFO-ACAF
We’re the largest union in North America that exclusively represents finance and audit professionals. With more than 7,000 members, we support and defend workers that play a vital role in the accountable and efficient running of the federal government and NAV Canada.
We’re currently a hybrid workplace, with the majority of our work done from home or on-site delivering training. Several times a month we work as a team from the ACFO-ACAF office, though, so you’ll need to live within easy access of the National Capital Region. The office is located in Ottawa’s desirable Westboro neighbourhood, steps from public transit with free parking on site and fresh free (and good!) coffee
Finally, ACFO-ACAF is a dedicated advocate for equity and is committed to ensuring representation in our workforce. We welcome applications from all walks of life, including women, members of racialized groups, First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples, people with disabilities, and 2SLGBTQ+ individuals.
How to apply
Please send a resume and cover letter to Joe Boughner, Director of Professional Development (jboughner@acfo-acaf.com). Resumes will be reviewed as they arrive with the goal of staffing the position before March 15, 2024.
Only applications with a cover letter will be reviewed, and while we thank and appreciate everyone who applies, only those invited for an interview will be contacted.
We look forward to receiving your application! And don’t hesitate to contact Joe if you have any questions about the role.
