Introduction :
We are seeking a bilingual Marketing Communications Coordinator to strengthen our online engagement and support our marketing and communications strategies. A key member of the team, the coordinator is a skilled writer who creates engaging content across multiple channels to highlight the work of the Canadian Construction Association to members, stakeholders, government and the media.
À propos du rôle :
The Canadian Construction Association (CCA) is the national voice for Canada’s heavy civil, institutional, commercial, and industrial construction industry, giving voice to the public policy, legal and standards development goals of contractors, suppliers and allied business professionals working in, or with, our industry.
Construction is the backbone of the Canadian economy, employing some 1.6 million Canadians, pumping about $151 billion annually into the national economy, and accounting for nearly 7.4 per cent of Canada’s gross domestic product (GDP). Its impact is immense and the life we enjoy – from the schools we send our kids to; the hospitals that care for us; to the roads and bridges that connect our communities – is all possible because of construction.
