'''Are you ready to shake up your career and dive into something truly different?'''
 +
 
 +
The National Managers’ Community (NMC) is looking for a dynamic '''Senior Communications Advisor''' (via at-level secondment at an AS-05 or equivalent such as IS-04, PM-05) to join our team in the National Capital Region.
 +
 
 +
This is your chance to explore the cutting edge of communications—leveraging AI, experimenting with a wide range of digital tools and platforms, while helping shape the future of public service engagement. Whether you're crafting engaging messages, supporting high-impact events, or building connections across departments, this role offers variety, creativity, and the opportunity to make a real difference.
 +
 
 +
We’re looking for someone who’s curious, adaptable, and thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. You’ll be a key player behind the scenes—troubleshooting, thinking strategically, and supporting outreach and engagement with stakeholders across government. You’ll also supervise a team member and contribute to the planning and execution of national events that bring managers together to learn, connect, and lead.
    +
If you’re ready to stretch your skills, explore new technologies, and be part of a forward-thinking team, this secondment opportunity could be your next big move.

Change is constant and how you lead through it matters more than ever. As a manager, your leadership can either ease the transition or amplify resistance. Understanding how to support diverse reactions to change is key to fostering trust, engagement, and resilience in your team.
