​

  • Over the past two years we have helped 2,000+ seniors across the GTA

  • Empower youth with learning and leadership opportunities

  • Founder was selected Brampton's Top 40 Under 40 and a Future Star for Social Impact by the Schulich School of Business 

​

We love entrepreneurial personalities who not only take leadership and responsibility for their roles, but bring ideas and opinions to the organization. We ensure that everyone has the opportunity to speak any ideas they have for improvements, new programs and initiatives, or feedback. We want our team to feel like Chatting to Wellness is theirs and that they have an important say in its operations.

​

Chatting to Wellness has a small entrepreneurial team focused on including the best talent, regardless of age, sex, race, sexual preference, identity, etc. 

The Ideal Canidate:

We are looking for a positive, interpersonal leader with a passion for healthcare and senior care, to lead all of Chatting to Wellness' volunteers across the GTA. This position requires the utmost responsibility and reliability as many youth and vulnerable populations are involved in our programs. This position is a phenomenal opportunity to understand the healthcare, mental health, senior care and non-profit space.

 

  • Entrepreneurial  

  • Leadership skills and experience

  • Great communication skills

The Position:

This position will work directly with the President, Mahad Shahzad, and work to grow Chatting to Wellness social media, brand image, and external reach.

 

This person will have the following responsibilities:

  • Report directly to the President on strategy and approach to growing Chatting to Wellness' reach and image

  • Reach out to news media to feature Chatting to Wellness

  • Lead digital marketing initiatives of Chatting to Wellness' social media platforms

  • Be part of weekly team calls 

​

A note from Mahad Shahzad, President: I am very excited to be offering this position. I have led most business related functions since the start of Chatting to Wellness, but, as we grow, we need more support in expanding. This position will work directly with myself in communicating what we do at Chatting to Wellness to the public. We have done very little marketing (intentionally) since our inception, and this is the perfect opportunity for a excited marketer/brand enthusiast to take an established base (service, partnerships, team, etc.) and build on it.

​

This position is remote, has flexible hours, unpaid, and will require 5-10hrs/week

​
