Who we are
The Township of The Archipelago is a water-based, seasonally oriented municipality consisting of a portion of the 30,000 islands in Georgian Bay and a number of inland freshwater lakes. The Township acknowledges that the community resides on traditional Anishinabek territory. Our team is made up of committed and passionate employees who, in partnership with its community, ensure the continued guardianship of the lakes and watershed areas within the Georgian Bay Mnidoo Gamii Biosphere.
Why work for us
The Archipelago is a unique municipality in a number of ways, providing a challenging and rewarding career for each of its staff members. Our Administration Office, located in the hub of Parry Sound, overlooks the Seguin River and is only steps away from the Rotary and Algonquin Fitness trail where you can immerse yourself in the beauty of the Georgian Bay shoreline.
In addition to the beauty of the area, we offer a robust employee benefits program, an Employee and Family Assistance Program and are members of the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System (OMERS).
