Open Board Roles

Director

Term length: Two years starting July 1, 2026

We’re looking for communicators who want to make an impact and bring something new to the table.

Tell us what drives you and where you want to grow. And if you’ve got a knack for something—digital strategy, events, partnerships, governance, mentorship—we want that too. This is a place to use what you’re great at, and sharpen what’s next.

Why Serve on the IABC Edmonton Board

Serving on the Board isn’t just a line on your resume. It’s a chance to influence where this profession goes next, and how this community shows up.

  • Build real leadership experience. Step into decisions that matter—strategy, communications, financial oversight, and member engagement. Not theory. Practice.
  • Expand your network with intention. Work alongside experienced communicators across industries in Edmonton. Build relationships that challenge your thinking and elevate your work.
  • Shape what this community becomes. Help design the programs, events, and experiences that define IABC Edmonton. Bring new ideas into a legacy organization—and help move it forward.
  • Contribute to something bigger. Support the growth of your peers and strengthen a community built on shared standards, curiosity, and progress.
  • Strengthen your career story. Board experience signals initiative, accountability, and a commitment to the craft—qualities that carry weight.
  • Grow in ways you can’t plan for. Take on new challenges, expand your perspective, and gain a clearer view of how a professional community operates from the inside.
