About Peel District School Board

The Peel District School Board (PDSB) is one of Canada's largest and most diverse school boards, serving approximately 140,000 students from kindergarten to Grade 12 across 262 schools in Brampton, Mississauga, and Caledon. PDSB employs over 18,000 staff members and is committed to student achievement, well-being, equity, and inclusion, creating learning environments where every student can thrive and reach their full potential.

The Peel District School Board is currently under the supervision of the Ontario Ministry of Education, with an appointed Supervisor responsible for governance and decision-making on behalf of the Board.

About the Role

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) will play a pivotal leadership role at the Peel District School Board during a period of significant transformation and renewal. As part of Ontario's Putting Student Achievement First Act, 2026, the former Director of Education position has evolved into the CEO role, reflecting an enhanced focus on organizational leadership, financial stewardship, operational excellence, and accountability. The CEO will be accountable for all aspects of board operations, most critically, aligning resources to support student achievement and well-being. Responsibilities also include leading the development of the Board's budget and ensuring strong financial oversight. Reporting directly to the Ministry-appointed Supervisor, the CEO will provide strategic leadership across one of Canada's largest and most diverse school boards, helping to strengthen governance, drive organizational effectiveness, and advance educational outcomes. The CEO will continue to report to the Supervisor until governance authority is returned to a reinstated Board of Trustees. The Chief Operating Officer (COO), Chief Education Officer (CedO), and Chief School Services Officer all report directly to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
