How To Apply
The City of Edmonton runs a major recruitment campaign annually in December and January, with additional recruitments taking place throughout the year.
Edmonton City Council values the diverse voices of citizens in local governance and commits to appointing individuals who are reflective of the population of the City and who have been recruited through a fair, equitable and inclusive process.
Applications are accepted using the Taleo Online Application System. Applicants must complete the application and attach a resume, by the deadline. The Assessment Review Board, Community Standards and Licence Appeal Committee and Subdivision and Development Appeal Board require 3 references be included on the resume (name, phone and email details), who will be contacted for shortlisted candidates. For all other Boards, two reference letters will be required from shortlisted candidates.
Shortlisted applicants will be:
- Contacted by the Civic Agencies Team to schedule their interview with the assigned Selection Committee.
- Asked to complete a Public Biography Request Form. If appointed as a Board Member, the biography will be included in the City Council minutes.
We strive to provide reasonable access and accommodations throughout the application and selection process. If you require help completing your application, or to request an accommodation, please contact 780-496-8178 or civic.agencies@edmonton.ca.
Appointment terms vary across boards (most appointment terms are for 1 or 2 years) and are renewable for either 6 or 8 consecutive years depending on the board.
