Position: Project Manager, Learning Health System Leadership Centre
Department: Institute for Better Health
Status: Temporary Full Time (2-year contract with possibility of renewal)

Trillium Health Partners and the Institute for Better Health Learning Health System Leadership Centre
Trillium Health Partners (THP) is the largest community-based hospital system in Canada. Comprised of Credit Valley Hospital, Mississauga Hospital and Queensway Health Centre, Trillium Health Partners serves the growing and diverse populations of Mississauga, West Toronto and surrounding communities. Trillium Health Partners is a teaching hospital affiliated with the University of Toronto and is an associate member of the Toronto Academic Health Science Network.
As THP’s research and innovation engine, the Institute for Better Health (IBH) is a core enabler of THP’s mission of a new kind of health care for a healthier community through the application of scientific expertise, innovative thinking and partnerships. The Learning Health System (LHS) Leadership Centre at IBH is a strategic initiative designed to accelerate the adoption and impact of LHS practices across the health system. Anchored within THP’s commitment to innovation and excellence, the Centre aims to build leadership capacity, create sustainable value, and scale evidence-informed practices that improve care delivery and population health.
Responding to system-wide challenges—including fragmented expertise, limited scalable tools, leadership burnout, and the need for broader partnerships—the Centre will offer targeted solutions including education, microlearning modules, advisory services, coaching, and maturity assessment tools. Through these offerings, the Centre supports the development of a pan-Canadian network of leaders equipped to drive transformation within a learning health system model.
Our Commitment to and Progress Towards Anti-Black Racism
THP and IBH have made a commitment to becoming a safer and more inclusive environment with a dedicated focus on dismantling anti-Black racism and white supremacy at THP. This commitment is in response to the recognition that Black people systemically experience the organization differently than their white and non-Black colleagues. Similarly, Black scientists and research staff experience the research ecosystem differently. Anti-Black racism is the starting point as Black individuals and communities are disproportionately impacted by the harms of systemic racism and white supremacy culture. In this work, we are committed to disrupting and reconstructing the processes, practices, and systems that contribute to anti-Black racism.
THP established its Equity Secretariat Office in 2020, providing education and training on anti-Black racism, and establishing a THP Circle on Anti-Racism and Inclusion. Today, the Equity Secretariat has become the Equity, Anti-Racism and Inclusion Office, with a current staff of four whose specific focus is on dismantling anti-Black racism and white supremacy and advancing other dimensions of inequity within THP. This office supported the completion of an externally-led Anti-Black Racism Climate Review and resulting report, which includes recommendations and actions that are being integrated into THP’s operating plan. At IBH, the Anti-Black Racism Allyship Initiative (ABRAI) was established in 2020 to understand the experiences of Black staff within IBH and develop an action plan in partnership with Black staff to address anti-Black racism. The action plan has been translated into operational objectives that support the recruitment, retention, and career development of Black staff. As part of this plan, IBH has established an optional, monthly Black Excellence meeting for Black staff at IBH where the purpose is to provide a safe space where all hold power and attendees can connect, network, and support each other.
