Position Description

About Us

Leading Influence has provided excellence in spiritual and emotional care to Canadian politicians for 17 years. We are Canada's largest ministry serving in this field, with Care Providers in every provincial legislature from BC to Quebec and Ottawa. We function relationally as a Ministry of Presence that encourages and supports anyone open to engaging with us.

The Opportunity

We are currently seeking applicants to join our ministry team in Ottawa. We envision a multicultural, bilingual (preferred) and multi-denominational team that will work collaboratively with each other on Parliament Hill and in partnership with our team members across the country.

Your primary task will be to build intentional ministry relationships with Members, staff and their families to support and encourage them as they give themselves to public service. 

Remuneration for this opportunity's first year depends on a successful grant application. We have applied for three fully funded positions covering salary, expenses and administrative overhead. 

Team members are responsible for raising their support in years two and beyond. We have several proven strategies to assist team members in reaching their goals.

About You

You have at least an undergrad degree in theology/pastoral care, etc.

You have proven (10 years or more) ministry experience in various roles. Candidates with a strong community engagement/leadership background would be an excellent fit for us.

You align with our Statement of Faith and Team Code of Conduct. (available on request)

You understand that this is not an opportunity for you to shape public policy but rather to support individuals. This is a pastoral/chaplaincy role.

You are a Canadian citizen.
