Ballad Consulting Group
About Ballad
Ballad is a purpose-driven organization dedicated to empowering resilient people, businesses, and communities across Canada. Our work is grounded in trust, respect, and our core values of accountability, collaboration, and entrepreneurship.
One of the ways we create impact is through our Fundamentals of Supply Chain Logistics (FSCL) program, which supports unemployed Albertans in building sustainable careers in the supply chain sector. Over 14 weeks, participants receive industry-specific training, personalized career coaching, and a four-week work placement designed to support a successful transition into employment.
At Ballad, success is measured by meaningful outcomes. When our participants secure long-term employment, individuals thrive, businesses grow, and communities are strengthened. That’s where you come in.
About the Role
The Employment Specialist plays a critical role in the success of the FSCL program by building strong employer partnerships, securing work experience and job placements, and supporting participants through to sustained employment outcomes.
This role is ideal for a proactive, relationship-driven professional who enjoys connecting with employers, identifying opportunities, and closing the loop between talent and industry needs. Your ability to create meaningful employment matches directly contributes to achieving at least 70% employment retention at 90 days.
Key Responsibilities
Develop Employer Partnerships: Build and maintain strong relationships with employers in the supply chain sector to understand hiring needs and identify job opportunities.

Represent FSCL at Events: Promote the program at career fairs, trade shows, and networking events to expand employer connections and awareness.
Track and Report Outcomes: Monitor employment outcomes and ensure at least 70% of placed participants remain employed for 90 days.
Who You Are
People-Focused: You are motivated by helping individuals build meaningful careers and succeed in the workforce.
Target-Driven: You are energized by achieving placement and retention goals because they reflect real, lasting outcomes.
Relationship Builder: You excel at connecting with employers and leveraging professional relationships to create opportunities.
Self-Starter: You take initiative, solve problems independently, and thrive in a dynamic environment.
