This is an exciting opportunity that offers the chance to make a positive impact in our community in the food security sector.

Community Impact Real Estate Society (CIRES) is a unique social enterprise that supports thriving, equitable and inclusive local economies and communities by curating a balanced portfolio of commercial spaces most of which are located in Vancouver’s Downtown East Side. The Washington Community Market (the Market), a CIRES community economic development initiative, is a long-standing affordable grocery store serving the DTES population.

The Director of Food Security & Market Development will define CIRES' broader role in Vancouver’s food security ecosystem while overseeing and expanding the Market. Specifically, you will build relationships with stakeholders to identify local needs and design initiatives to fill these needs. Market responsibilities include assessing the business model, growth planning, managing financial and human resources, and fund development.
