You will also assist City departments with the strategic planning and evaluation of major engagement initiatives.
Your responsibilities include organizing and coordinating public engagement and community outreach programs; reviewing and evaluating engagement systems and activities; and providing consultation, training and assistance to internal staff on implementing engagement tools.
