“I’ve had the unique experience of starting at CCOC as a summer intern, to becoming a full-time staff member. Throughout that time, I’ve had the chance to see many sides of CCOC and work with incredibly passionate and hardworking people. From the Rentals and Rent Collections department to Tenant and Community Engagement, I have been able to learn and engage with many different aspects of non-profit housing. As someone just starting their professional career, I have come to greatly appreciate the kind of people-centred work that organizations like CCOC are engaged in. It has truly been a highly rewarding and informative place to work, with chances to expand and grow my professional skills along every step of the way.”

“CCOC is a dynamic workplace. I started at the Service Desk and now I am one of the Tenant and Community Engagement Facilitators. Each department navigates new challenges daily. I am grateful to connect with my fellow team members to strategize how to best support our tenant base. As staff, your ability to be resourceful and responsive to tenants is your greatest asset. The current polycrisis means that many of our tenants are facing greater need than ever. Our role is to advocate for our tenants while making the best use of the resources we have at our disposal.”
