About the ACE Project

The Accessibility Confident Employers (ACE) Project supports employers across Atlantic Canada to build inclusive, accessible workplaces where people with disabilities can thrive.

We believe accessibility is not just compliance — it is about relationships, learning, and reimagining how workplaces welcome diverse experiences, strengths, and ways of working.

We work alongside employers, community partners, and job seekers to strengthen inclusive hiring practices and build meaningful pathways to employment.

About This Role

We are looking for a relationship-focused, community-minded leader to help grow the ACE Project in New Brunswick

This role is about connection through building relationships with employers, supporting inclusive learning opportunities, and helping translate accessibility into practical, real-world action.

You will work collaboratively with partners across Atlantic Canada while bringing regional insight, local relationships, and your unique perspective into the program.

There is no single “perfect” background for this role. Strong candidates may come from HR, workforce development, disability advocacy, community leadership, education, employment services, or lived experience navigating accessibility barriers.

What You’ll Do

Build Relationships & Support Employers

• Connect with employers across New Brunswick to support their accessibility journey
• Share tools, resources, and learning opportunities that strengthen inclusive hiring practices
• Help employers feel confident taking meaningful steps toward accessibility

Partner with Community Organizations

• Collaborate with disability organizations and accessibility leaders
• Support referral pathways and job matching opportunities
• Act as a connector between employers, partners, and job seekers

Support Inclusive Learning & Events

• Co-host virtual and in-person job matching and learning activities
• Help create welcoming, accessible environments where participants feel respected and included
• Gather feedback and insights to support continuous improvement

Contribute to Team Learning

• Track outreach and engagement in ways that support shared learning
• Participate in collaborative team meetings rooted in respect and shared leadership

What You Bring

We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every qualification.

You may bring:

• Experience building relationships with employers, community groups, or partners
• Interest in or experience with accessibility, disability inclusion, or inclusive employment
• Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset
• Comfort working independently while staying connected to a remote team
• Curiosity, empathy, and a willingness to learn

Lived experience of disability, caregiving, or navigating barriers to employment is welcomed and valued.

Equivalent combinations of education, community experience, and lived experience are equally considered.

Our Commitment to Accessibility & Inclusive Hiring

We are committed to creating a recruitment process and workplace where everyone feels welcome.

You do not need to disclose personal information to request accommodations. If there is anything we can do to support your participation in the hiring process, please let us know and we will work with you to meet your needs.

We recognize that systemic barriers exist, and we actively encourage applications from people who may not see themselves reflected in traditional job descriptions.

Why This Role Matters

This work helps reshape how workplaces across Atlantic Canada understand accessibility and inclusion. Your work will help employers move beyond intention into meaningful action and creating more equitable employment opportunities for people with disabilities.
