Brief Overview:
The Metis Nation Saskatchewan (MNS) is seeking a qualified and knowledgeable individual to fill the role of Food Security Coordinator. Under the supervision of the MNS Conservation Program Manager, this position is responsible for coordinating activities and communication among the MNS, its citizens, community partners, all levels of government Ministries and departments and other relevant stakeholders to advance food security priorities.
