ABOUT THE STUDENTS’ UNION

The Students’ Union (SU) is one of the leading undergraduate Student Associations in Canada. We are a not-for-profit organization that works to ensure that University of Calgary undergraduate students have the best possible university experience through advocacy, representation, and providing valuable on-campus services and programs. We also manage several businesses within the MacEwan Student Centre including a restaurant and bar, two concert venues, a convenience store, a used bookstore and copy centre, and the MacEwan Conference & Event Centre.

We’re in the business of student leadership, and so SU staff are all teachers in some capacity. We coach, mentor, and work alongside the elected members of our student government to help them develop skills and make good decisions for the organization. As such, the SU is a nimble and leading-edge organization that can pivot quickly to address emerging issues and trends.

The Students’ Union offers all our employees a competitive, market-determined salary. Our benefits, though, tend to exceed the market. These include:

  • Five weeks paid vacation, to start
  • Unlimited paid sick time
  • A six percent RRSP matching program
  • Full health and dental benefits plus a health spending account
  • A mission-driven culture that values work-life balance, diverse experiences, and kindness

At the Students’ Union, we prioritize the well-being and professional growth of our employees, fostering a supportive and engaging workplace. Our commitment to a positive work environment has resulted in a dedicated, long-serving team with low turnover. If you are seeking a meaningful career where your contributions are valued without compromising work-life balance, the Students’ Union may be the ideal place for you.
