Description

The Forge is a 6 month paid internship with iTeams Canada specifically designed for college and university graduates with knowledge and passion for International Development. Forge interns are emerging Christian leaders who want to put their skills to practical use and take the next step in their careers. They also share a strong commitment to seeing communities around the world grow into fullness of life characterized by dignity, hope, justice and peace.

  • This role is a full-time fixed 6 month contract, based on 30 hours/week, Monday through Thursday (our office is closed on Fridays) starting in January 2025.
  • The iTeams office is located in Elmira, Ontario and this role would require time working in-person at the office.
  • The overall compensation package includes: Annual salary of $31,000 (prorated based on the 6 month contract), five paid vacation days and enrollment with our group benefits program upon hire.

iTeams Canada and our office team is a relatively small work community. As part of our commitment to equity and anti-oppression, we endeavour to create space for increased representation and power within our organization for individuals and communities in Canada disproportionately impacted by systemic oppression. We seek new individuals that will expand our diversity and who have the flexibility to thrive in a small office. This requires a certain measure of fluidity in job descriptions as circumstances change and as projects develop. We all pitch in to help each other as needed; celebrate special occasions together; and enjoy camaraderie around a common mission.
