At St. Jerome’s, we embrace the Catholic philosophy of attending to the needs of our students as ‘whole people’ through education and formation, and this philosophy extends to the way we work with our employees. We strive to foster a culture where everyone feels welcome, supported, and can flourish personally and professionally.
St. Jerome’s University is a Catholic University that welcomes people from all religious, cultural and socio-demographic backgrounds who embrace our mission and the importance of equity, diversity, inclusion, reconciliation, and accessibility as central to the mission of a Catholic university.
As a federated university with the University of Waterloo, St. Jerome’s University employees, just like our students, enjoy the advantages of a small community while having the opportunity to participate and contribute to the greater community. As a separate employer, we offer a distinct mission and culture that is complementary to the University of Waterloo that everyone can contribute to. Our small community allows us to get to know everyone personally and work in small and nimble teams that offer a great variety of work.
Commitment to equity
The University respects, appreciates, and encourages diversity, and is committed to employment equity and ensuring that everyone feels welcome, supported and able to flourish within our community.
St. Jerome’s University seeks applicants who embrace our Catholic mission and the importance of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion as foundational to the life of a Catholic university. Applications from all qualified individuals are encouraged and are especially welcomed from those who identify as First Nations, Métis and/or Inuk (Inuit), Black, racialized, a person with a disability, women and/or 2SLGBTQ+.
