Company Description
Mennonite Disaster Service (MDS) is a volunteer network dedicated to responding to disasters in Canada and the United States. Our mission is to assist the most vulnerable community members who would not have the means to recover on their own after disaster. MDS volunteers provide the skills and labour needed to respond, rebuild and restore in the wake of disaster. We collaborate with other faith-based organizations, local recovery committees and government/non-government agencies to maximize our impact.
The Mennonite Disaster Service Canada (MDSC) staff team mobilizes hundreds of volunteers to respond to disasters in Canada and the United States. Although small, MDSC is growing because of the increasing frequency and scope of disasters in Canada, and an increasing interest in voluntary service with MDS.
Role Description
As Finance and Admin Manager, you play a vital role in overseeing the financial and administrative functions of MDSC. This position encompasses a broad scope of financial responsibilities, from high level management of the MDSC audit and budgeting processes through to the day-to-day bookkeeping functions.
To ensure that the organization, and its generous volunteers, can serve the most vulnerable disaster survivors well, you work behind the scenes — managing administrative and financial processes and policies, ensuring compliance with legal requirements, providing oversight for MDSC' use of Information Technology, and more.

- Bachelor's degree or designation in accounting or a bachelor's degree in business administration
