A GENUINE GROWTH OPPORTUNITY - NOT JUST A CONTRACT This is a 52-week, 20-hour-per-week contract role. We want to be transparent: for the right candidate, this position has a clear pathway to a full-time Program Lead role within the term. Track3 is in an active growth phase — we are building our team, expanding our programs, and investing in the people who invest in us. We are not looking for someone to fill a position. We are looking for someone who wants to help build an organization and grow with it.
Note: Must be available during typical business hours with some weekend and evening work
ABOUT ONTARIO TRACK3 Ontario Track3 Adaptive Sports Association is a volunteer-powered charity with over 50 years of experience delivering adaptive sport programs for children and youth with disabilities. With 405 volunteers, 11 program sites, and programs in alpine skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, nordic, and hiking, Track3 believes sport has the power to build confidence, belonging, and community — in every season. In the Grey County region, Track3 currently delivers five winter programs. This role is part of our next chapter: expanding reach year-round to serve families waiting for access to inclusive, adaptive recreation — and building the organizational systems that allow us to do that sustainably.
ROLE OVERVIEW The Program Assistant will work closely with Track3's Program Leadership across two connected areas of responsibility: taking a leading role in piloting the new off-snow programming that will extend Track3's reach beyond the winter season in the Grey-Bruce Region, and actively contributing to the delivery and growth of Track3's existing alpine programs. This role is designed with knowledge transfer at its core. You will be embedded in Track3's program operations from day one — learning how programs run, documenting what you learn, and progressively taking ownership of defined workflows. The goal is that by the end of the term, the organization's program knowledge lives in systems and people — not in any single individual.
Candidates residing in or near Collingwood and the Blue Mountain area are strongly preferred, as the role requires regular local presence to support program delivery, site visits, and community relationship-building.
GROWTH & KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER — WHAT THIS ROLE IS REALLY ABOUT Actively learn all core program workflows — alpine and off-snow — alongside Program Leadership, with the explicit goal of being able to execute them independently by mid-contract.
Own the documentation of assigned workflows in Track3's shared operational system — this is a formal deliverable of the role, not a background task Progressively take on greater ownership of coordination, communications, and logistics functions — with increasing independence as the term advances For a candidate who demonstrates program leadership capability and organizational fit, this role has a clear and supported pathway to an expanded full-time mandate within Track3
Track3 invests in the people who invest in us — bring your ambition, and we will give you the opportunity to grow into it
