JOB DESCRIPTION
The Retail Cannabis Council of Ontario (RCCO) is looking for an experienced Office Manager.
ABOUT RCCO
RCCO is a not-for-profit association created by licensed retailers and cannabis industry professionals to give a voice to Ontario’s licensed cannabis retailers. The mandate is advocacy, education, and community.
Canada has just entered its fourth year of legalization. While this provides great opportunity for a young and growing industry, this also comes with a lot of challenges – legal, financial, regulatory, and more. RCCO endeavours to implement change to help the industry grow stronger and more sustainable for independent cannabis retailers.
The Board is a team of 9 volunteer members who have worked to establish the organization, which has developed a relationship with the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), the Ontario Cannabis Store (OCS) and Health Canada, with a membership of independent licensed retail operators across Ontario and numerous industry partners.
