Haliburton Highlands Land Trust (HHLT) welcomes expressions of interest from individuals who wish to join our Council of Trustees.
Who are Trustees?
HHLT’s Trustees are voting members of our organization. They champion our vision in the community (a Haliburton County with an abundance of protected lands and waters, where healthy, connected ecosystems allow wildlife and people to thrive, and help in the fight against climate change), and, among other things, elect the Board of Directors.
Trustees are elected at our Annual General Meeting (AGM) in June each year and serve three-year terms. Directors for our Board are elected from the Council of Trustees at the AGM.

- Conservation
- Not-for-profit governance
- Stakeholder/community relations and communications
- Strategic capability and senior leadership
- Fundraising

- Property acquisition and management

Are you Interested?
If this opportunity interests you, please email us at admin@haliburtonlandtrust.ca with your expression of interest and an outline of how your background aligns with our mission and the skills and expertise areas noted above.
