ABOUT JAY MEYER
With over two decades of dedication to rural municipal government, I\'ve honed my strategic leadership and conflict resolution skills to serve as the Executive Director at the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARM). My mission is to champion the interests of rural communities, aligning my efforts with SARM\'s long-standing advocacy. I bring a diverse perspective to the table, leveraging my experience to foster a culture of collaboration and progress within our association.At SARM, my role has evolved with the organization\'s growth from just over 20 staff members to a team of over 30. My focus has been on effectively representing our members\' interests to federal and provincial governments. This involves coordinating advocacy, participating in legislative review, and offering a range of support services to our members. Through strategic leadership, I\'ve helped to strengthen the voice of rural Saskatchewan, ensuring it\'s heard loud and clear.
