Heather Jacobs-Whyte is getting set to call it a career and The Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke (MCK) and Council of Chiefs are both congratulating Jacobs-Whyte, today, for her hard work and dedication as she approaches her retirement date. Heather Jacobs-Whyte began her career at the MCK in 2004 after a long and successful career in Nursing at the Kateri Memorial Hospital Centre. Her first position was as a Research & Policy Analyst at the Lands Unit and moved over to the Strategic & Organizational Development Unit (SOD) in 2015.
In December 2021, Jacobs-Whyte was seconded as the Interim General Manager of Housing Programs & Client Services. Jacobs-Whyte’s skills and experience were evident in the Housing file, as she managed the much-needed updates on policies and processes of the unit over the last several months and worked closely with the Director and other Key Leadership stakeholders, providing updates and information during the Housing Unit’s transformation. In July 2022, she was named General Manager of the aforementioned position and is now happy to head off into the sunset. Heather Jacobs-Whyte’s last official day as an MCK employee is March 31st.
