SDG COUNTIES, Ontario - With warmer months on the horizon, students and recent graduates are invited to get an early start on their job search by considering seasonal employment with SDG Counties. Each summer, SDG Counties offers a variety of positions that provide practical, hands-on experience across a range of service areas, including public works, environmental initiatives, recreation, tourism, and administrative support.

Seasonal hires are an important part of SDG Counties’ workforce, helping ensure essential programs and services run smoothly during the year’s busiest period. Opportunities are available in multiple departments and are well suited for individuals looking to build transferable skills, gain workplace experience, and contribute meaningfully to their local community.

As the upper-tier municipality for the region, SDG Counties plays a key role in delivering services that positively impact residents, businesses, and visitors. Summer positions allow students to gain insight into municipal operations such as roads and transportation, land-use planning, environmental stewardship, finance, court and law and tourism.

Supporting strong, connected communities is central to the work of SDG Counties. Summer students contribute to this mission in many ways — from assisting with on-the-ground operations to providing valuable behind-the-scenes support that helps teams meet day-to-day service demands.

Former summer staff frequently highlight the benefits of working in a welcoming and collaborative environment. The chance to apply academic learning in real-world settings, explore potential career paths, and see the direct impact of municipal work makes summer employment with SDG Counties a rewarding experience.

In addition to seasonal roles, SDG Counties periodically offers co-op placements for students. Those interested in learning more about current opportunities, application deadlines, and what it’s like to work for the municipality are encouraged to visit sdgcounties.ca/work-with-us.
