Chief Financial Officer

Turning Leaf is a non‑profit, charitable organization that provides person‑centered, crisis and treatment services to low and high‑risk vulnerable and marginalized individuals living with mental illness and intellectual challenge in our community. Turning Leaf’s support is customized to every individual’s needs and risk level. We offer crisis‑intervention and treatment services, community support, day program services, residential support (including emergency housing, 24‑hour homes, cluster housing, and home share), a harm reduction program, clinical services, indigenous services and more.

We are proud to be recognized as one of Manitoba’s Top Employers of 2025. This honour distinguishes Turning Leaf as a leader in our industry, and as one of the top places to work in the province.

The participants of our programs are often deeply impacted by their circumstances which can become barriers to living safely and independently in the community. Trauma, homelessness, poverty, addictions, discrimination, sexual exploitation, societal stigmas, and lack of access to resources are some of the barriers our participants face every day.

Being a part of the Turning Leaf team means you will have the opportunity to make a direct and positive impact on people’s lives every day. The work is challenging in all the best ways and deeply rewarding. Many of our employees say they have found their life’s purpose while working here.

Turning Leaf provides ongoing, meaningful training to ensure we remain an industry leader and that our employees have the skills and confidence to be successful in their careers. We are an organization that pledges to uphold a workplace culture of diversity, equity, inclusion, compassion, and respect.

We are growing more and more all the time, and we are always hiring. If you feel called to be a part of the Turning Leaf team, please apply today.
