The Ministry of Mental Health and Addiction is transforming Alberta’s health system to the Alberta Recovery Model, which adopts a recovery-oriented approach for addiction and mental health. For more information see: https://www.alberta.ca/alberta-recovery-oriented-system-of-care.
The Ministry of Mental Health and Addiction is committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of Albertans by strengthening a mental health and addiction system built on compassion, practicality, and recovery. The ministry leads province‑wide efforts to help people find the right support at the right time, whether that means prevention, treatment, or ongoing recovery. By setting clear system direction and overseeing policy, funding, and capital investments, the ministry works hand‑in‑hand with Recovery Alberta, the Canadian Centre of Recovery Excellence, community organizations, and Indigenous partners to deliver services that matter. Current priorities include expanding access to care, advancing compassionate intervention, improving services for children and youth, strengthening culturally responsive Indigenous supports, and using data and evidence to drive continuous improvement. Together, this work helps create healthier individuals, stronger families, and safer, more resilient communities across Alberta.
The Ministry of Mental, Health and Addictions is looking for two dynamic Managers to join their team in supporting the Ministry.
Manager Capital Planning leads a team that is responsible for implementation of capital initiatives in support of ministry and Government of Alberta (GoA) goals and priorities for the addiction and mental health system. Responsibilities include coordination and engagement in the capital planning process (i.e., Needs Assessment, Clinical Service Plans, Business Case, budget submissions) and monitoring approved capital grants. This includes providing consolidated inputs into the Ministry's capital plan, development of decision documents required for Treasury Board, the Deputy Minister Capital Committee, and Cabinet consideration, and managing consultants to support capital infrastructure development.
