Canadian Cancer Society
EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT, ADVOCACY & POLICY The Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) is leading the way to a future without cancer. We work tirelessly to save lives, improve lives, and drive collective action against cancer. We fund the brightest minds in cancer research. We provide a compassionate support system for all those affected by cancer, across Canada and for all types of cancer. Together with patients and advocates, we help shape government policies that create a healthier future for everyone. We believe that to take on cancer, it takes all of us. It takes a society. In 2026, CCS will launch a new five-year strategic plan. This is an exciting leadership opportunity, in a newly created position, to advance advocacy efforts and promote policy changes to reduce cancer risk, promote prevention and early detection, bring equity to cancer care, and improve quality of life for everyone affected by cancer. Reporting to the Chief Mission Officer, and as a member of the CCS executive leadership team, the Executive Vice President, Advocacy and Policy (EVP) will lead an exceptional team of approximately 30 advocacy and policy professionals across Canada. The EVP will bring a depth of knowledge on cancer issues and health equity. They will call on their track record of achieving transformational policy change to improve cancer outcomes for Canadians. They will ensure that CCS positions on all issues are evidence-based, keeping up with a rapidly changing context, and that advocacy strategy is engaging and impactful, achieving outcomes that advance the CCS mission goals. The EVP will be a strategic thinker and inspiring leader, a passionate and knowledgeable ambassador who is able to represent CCS in government circles, policy forums, legislative hearings, and grassroots events with stakeholders, partners, and the media. Ideally bilingual in English and French, the EVP will be an effective communicator and an influential relationship builder who stays abreast of new scientific and policy developments, legislative changes, policy opportunities and evolving best practices, ensuring that CCS stays at the forefront of policy and effective advocacy. Internally, the EVP will nurture a high-performance and inclusive culture, working cross-functionally with communications, fundraising, research, information and support services teams to achieve the highest possible levels of impact. As a highly trusted source of cancer information, and one of the top health lobbyist organizations in the country, CCS has been shaping policy on cancer-related issues for decades. The organization was at the forefront of historic wins like bans on indoor smoking and exposure to asbestos, restrictions on cigarette advertising, and the extension of Canada's Employment Insurance sickness benefit. They have successfully pushed for more recent changes like improving access to mammograms, expanding access to job-protected medical leave, and bringing awareness to the significant out-of-pocket costs of cancer borne by patients and caregivers. CCS is called upon to provide advice and perspectives on cancer issues by government, media and the public. In this role, you will help CCS bring attention to critical issues and continue to drive progress to save lives and improve the health of all Canadians. CCS is a winner of a Waterstone Canada's Most Admired Corporate Culture award and has been recognized as a Charity Village Best Nonprofit Employer – Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. CCS celebrates individuality and the strength of diversity and is committed to fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace that empowers everyone. The organization encourages applications from all qualified candidates, including those from equity-deserving groups such as BIPOC, 2SLGBTQI+ communities, individuals with disabilities, veterans, and others who contribute to the richness of the organization.
