New agency, group to advocate and lobby in Canada on many interesting social issues, jurisprudence, lawmaking, policy review, independent review, citizens rights,
Our first priority is the assembly of a social committee, dedicated to raising public awareness on many of todays topical issues. As well set ourselves up as registered paid lobbyists - advocates

We require specialists to assist us to achieve our goals in influencing decision makers, whether at national or local, levels, by representation of a point of view - to the incumbent and non sitting Politicians and their advisors, Civil Service, Parliament, The Senate. media, communications firms, social networks, grass roots movements and any other relevant bodies. The firm's founder is political by nature and requires staff consultants with a proven track record in winning campaigns. The assignments are hand picked and involve social justice issues, regulations, resolutions, non partisan leadership.

We will act for both paid clients and for non paid assignments based on the predicaments.

The art of persuading key decision makers in government is of key importance to this position. We require honest, committed, reliable peddlers of influence, be they called, public affairs consultants, or political consultants, although the term lobbyist, in our view, has nothing untoward about it. Our belief is that we register as lobbyist's - that we never pay to see anyone, nor for any introduction to any third party. Democracy is about openness and accountability, not the selling of influence. This unfortunately seems to be the exception rather than the rule in Canada.

A legal background or understanding of government and government regulatory affairs is an asset, as would be a journalist media background. Your ability's will include working well both independently and in a team setting. Exceptional communications skills and presentation skills is essential. The ability to attract a large number of supporters, and organization creation would be an asset. Working with Individuals and groups would be a skill set required.
Please send your resume to this email address in the strictest of confidence.
