We are looking for a motivated, community-minded professional to join our Economic Development team as a Business Retention & Expansion (BR&E) Officer. This is a handson role focused on the people, businesses, and projects that make Summerside’s economy move. You will work directly with business owners, developers, and community partners to help ideas take root and grow.

What does success look like? A more active and vibrant downtown. Local businesses that are growing and hiring. New investment landing in Summerside. And wages that reflect a community that is genuinely competing and winning. This role sits at the center of all of that.

This is not a traditional, desk-based municipal role. We’re looking for someone who will be out in the community—connecting with businesses, understanding their goals and challenges, helping them navigate processes, and working collaboratively to move projects forward. This role plays a key part in turning ideas into action and maintaining the momentum we are building as a City.
