Description
Reporting to the Manager, Student Development and Counselling, the Educational Counsellor II is a senior member of the SAIT Academic Faculty Association. This role provides personal and career counselling, delivers psychoeducational workshops and mental health training, and participates in departmental and professional development activities.
This position provides leadership in the development, implementation, and evaluation of three key Student Development and Counselling (SDC) initiatives:
- A new service delivery model for the Taylor Family Campus Centre (TFCC), featuring single-session counselling within a community-based student wellness hub.
- The pilot Graduate Counselling Practicum Supervision Program.
- Recovery-focused supports offered through the Zen Den and Natoysopoyiis.
Working primarily on SAIT’s main campus, with responsibilities that may extend to satellite campuses and occasional after-hours support, this role plays a critical part in shaping counselling services across SAIT.
The Educational Counsellor II is responsible for developing, supervising, and training SDC counsellors and practicum students in single-session therapy, as well as overseeing the counselling supports delivered through TFCC. Success in this role requires advanced clinical expertise, strong program development and evaluation skills, and significant experience in counselling supervision.
