Step Into a Story That’s Bigger Than You.

At Métis Crossing, you won’t just find a workplace, you’ll find a calling. This is a place where the past breathes through every fiddle strum, every bead, every story told around a crackling fire under the northern sky.

Perched on the banks of the majestic North Saskatchewan River, Métis Crossing is Alberta’s first major Métis cultural destination; a place of learning, healing, and celebration. Our Lodge, Cultural Gathering Centre, and sweeping landscape are not just buildings or land; they are living reflections of Métis pride and perseverance.

Working full-time on-site in Smoky Lake, Alberta, the COO will ensure the effective delivery of programs and services, support growth through strategic partnerships and tourism initiatives, and foster an engaging, culturally grounded experience for every visitor. The COO will work in alignment with Métis Crossing’s mission, values, and long-term vision, and be a champion for innovation, sustainability, and Métis economic empowerment.

Champion an authentic and enriching guest experience that celebrates Métis culture, language, and history.
Support programming that is inclusive, intergenerational, and grounded in Métis storytelling. Collaborate with Knowledge Holders, Elders, and cultural advisors to ensure programming reflects traditional knowledge and protocols.

Governance & Stakeholder Engagement

Provide operational updates and reports to the CEO and Métis Crossing Board of Directors.
Cultivate strong relationships with community leaders, citizens, funders, and tourism partners. Represent Métis Crossing at events, conferences, and sector forums.
