Social Worker
This position has a term length of one year plus one day from the date of hire.
Location - This role is hybrid with a mix of remote and in-person (4 days in office, 1 day remote). Work primarily takes place at North Campus, Edmonton.
Reporting directly to the Manager of the Social Work Team, the Social Worker role centers on delivering holistic, individualized, student-centered support aimed at helping students navigate life’s challenges, strengthen daily stability, and facilitate positive change in any area of life. You will operate within ACSW Standards of Practice and legislative frameworks while managing a diverse caseload, spanning mental health, personal wellness, academics, life skill development, family dynamics, system navigation, and other student-identified needs.
