Description

About the Lincoln Chamber

The Lincoln Chamber of Commerce is a growing and evolving organization that champions the voice of business across West Niagara. We support our members through advocacy, connection, visibility, and opportunity. From solopreneurs and family-run shops to large-scale employers and government leaders, we’re at the centre of meaningful conversations that shape our community’s future.

And we’re just getting started.

This is an exciting time to join our team. As our Communications & Community Coordinator, you’ll not only play a vital role in how we show up—you’ll also be introduced to an incredible network of business owners, community leaders, and stakeholders at all levels. This position is ideal for someone who sees this not just as a job, but as a launchpad into a career in communications, community development, economic growth, or government relations.

If you’re the kind of person who thrives in a fast-paced environment, loves connecting with people, and takes pride in your work—we want to hear from you.


About the Role

This is a high-trust, high-autonomy role for someone who can jump in with both feet. We’ll support you as you learn the ropes, but we’re looking for someone who’s motivated, detail-oriented, and genuinely excited to take ownership of their day-to-day work.

You’ll help lead the charge in how we communicate with our members and the broader public—across email, social media, events, and one-on-one interactions. You’ll manage our marketing calendar, support key programs, and represent the Chamber with professionalism and approachability.

We work hard—but we have fun doing it. No two days are the same here, and that’s just the way we like it.


What You’ll Do

Member Communications

  • Be the friendly, go-to contact for our members via phone, email, and social

  • Write engaging newsletters, announcements, and updates

  • Launch and maintain a member-focused blog to spotlight businesses, wins, and local stories

  • Proactively connect with members for features, sponsorships, updates, and engagement

Marketing & Social Media

  • Manage the Chamber’s marketing calendar across all events and initiatives

  • Create and schedule content across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and TikTok

  • Design visuals in Canva and edit videos with CapCut or similar tools

  • Strategically cross-promote on platforms and ensure consistent branding

  • Leverage short-form video and behind-the-scenes storytelling to bring the Chamber to life

Events & Programs

  • Coordinate logistics and communications for:

    • Outstanding Business Achievement Awards

    • Annual Chamber Golf Tournament

    • Politicians’ Breakfast

    • State of the Town Address

    • Business After 5 and Breakfast Before 9 events

  • Maintain confidentiality and professionalism in all aspects of your work

  • Be available to support in-person events during early mornings or evenings as needed

Committees & Support

  • Support committee meetings by creating agendas, taking minutes, and tracking follow-ups

  • Organize pre-, during-, and post-meeting logistics with ease

Admin & Operations

  • Maintain up-to-date records in our CRM (Membee or similar)

  • Use tools like Basecamp, Asana, or Slack for project and task management

  • Confidently work within Microsoft Outlook, SharePoint, Word, and Excel

  • Use ChatGPT (yes, we see you 👋) as a tool—not a crutch. You know how to ask for help, but also how to think for yourself.

Requirements

You’re a Great Fit If You…

  • Enjoy being in community—talking to people, solving problems, and making things happen
