The same philosophy of personal attention that distinguishes Yorkville Education Company as a leading provider of post-secondary education makes us an exceptional place to work. We are a progressive and modern institution, responding to the needs of current and future students and implementing the best technology solutions to empower our work. We prioritize diversity, open doors to those often overlooked, welcome new Canadians, and provide pathways to successful careers.
Yorkville Education Company (which manages both Yorkville University and the Toronto Film School) began with a simple idea in 2004: offer flexible, rigorous, and career-focused degrees on campus and online to people who are on a purposeful path. With campuses in Ontario, British Columbia and New Brunswick, we equip our graduates with the professional knowledge, skills and designations that employers value.
Focused on providing a transformative, accessible and flexible higher education environment, our teams, from the President to the newest staff member, share a passion for learning, teaching, and growing as individuals and as teams. We nurture an inclusive, supportive, and genuinely kind work environment at our three campus locations and remotely.
If you want to shine a light on academic excellence, be empowered to make an impact on the transformation of the Canadian post-secondary education landscape, and work collaboratively beyond levels, join us.
Who we need
We are looking for a Program Advisor to join our team of Advisors and play a critical role supporting students. Your primary purpose is to foster student success measured by timely program completion or continuing enrolment in university programs. You will oversee a calendar of activities that support program participation, including following up with students at-risk of departure, confirming registration in the upcoming term and calling students who have withdrawn and those on a leave of absence to encourage re-entry. Working as part of the Program Team, you will also be responsible for proactively linking students with a variety of services and support mechanisms, namely academic, financial services, IT support and tutoring.
If you want to take on a role where you can make a profound difference on the experience of students, and design better ways to serve them, we'd love to talk to you.
The position is based at our 2000 Steeles Avenue West Campus in Toronto and includes some remote work.
What's in it for you
Career development and impact. This is a growth opportunity for a new or recent graduate seeking a chance to work in the academic sector.

You will see the impact of your work every day as you work closely with students to solve problems, and assist them with accessing the resources they need to complete their program.
