Strong communication, presentation, facilitation, and interpersonal skills.
Ability to build rapport with people from diverse backgrounds and life experiences.
Ability to manage group discussions, maintain boundaries, and respond calmly to sensitive situations.
Strong organization, reliability, time-management, and documentation skills.
Ability to work independently and collaboratively as part of a team.
Basic computer skills and comfort using email, virtual meeting platforms, and standard office applications.

Preferred Qualifications

Previous experience in peer support, group facilitation, adult education, mental health, addictions, social services, or community programming.
