About HSLM:
Envisioning a compassionate community where animals & humans thrive together, we have a unique transformational opportunity at this time on our team. Fresh from a move to a new purpose-built $18 M dollar facility that solidifies our capacity to serve London’s animal welfare ecosystem, we are looking to build out and extend our programming. To achieve this, we seek a poised and dynamic leader to build on the success of our capital campaign and donor stewardship for the next steps in our evolution. Humane Society London & Middlesex (HSLM) is a trusted leader in animal welfare. We are committed to advocating for and supporting animals through compassionate care, education, resources and partnerships. Our goal is to foster joy, hope and connection, as we work to build a humane and harmonious future. Our new home features not only space that exceeds current animal welfare standards, it includes an Education Centre and a fully accredited on site Animal Medical Centre. There are additional development opportunities to be explored with the remainder of the property.
