The First Nations in the area that UCN serves entered into treaty relationships with the Crown (within our region these include signatories to treaties 4, 5 -- and the treaty 5 adhesion, and treaty 6 - located within the treaty 5 adhesion). The territory has also become home to other Indigenous peoples. We uphold the treaties and collaborate with all Indigenous peoples to share truth, reconciliation, and learning. COMPETITION TYPE: Open Competition to Public  COMPETITION NUMBER: 26-136CLOSING DATE: Continuous IntakeSALARY RANGE: $18.11 to $20.09 per hour plus, remoteness allowance if applicablePOSITION CLASSIFICATION: Clerk 1POSITION LOCATION: Thompson, ManitobaPOSITION TYPE: Casual Position
