EORN is a non-profit organization, created by the Eastern Ontario Wardens’ Caucus (EOWC), which is comprised of the 13 upper and single tier municipalities in eastern Ontario. EORN also works closely with the separated municipalities and First Nations communities and Indigenous organizations within the region. EORN has created a five-year Strategic Plan to build on its success and to ensure economic growth and improved quality of life to Eastern Ontario communities continues to develop.

EORN is currently working on a $300 million project, funded by public and private sector partners, to improve and expand cellular services across the region. The project began in the spring of 2021.

From 2010 to 2014, EORN helped to improve broadband access to nearly 90 per cent of eastern Ontario through a $175 million public-private partnership. The network was funded by federal, provincial, and municipal governments and private sector service providers. As a result, it has also spurred more than $100 million in additional private sector investment in the region, over and above their initial commitments.

In accordance with the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, the information gathered will be used for the purpose of selection for the board of directors. Any inquiries should be directed to the EORN CEO.

We thank all applicants who respond to this advertisement. Only those applicants selected for an interview will be contacted.
