Rob Rainer, ED of the Table CFC
The Table Community Food Centre is preparing for a leadership change, with Executive Director Rob Rainer set to step down in early 2027.
Board Chair Steven Welchner says Rainer will remain in the role through January and may help with the transition once a successor is chosen.
During Rainer’s time as Executive Director, The Table opened the Falls Food Hub in Smiths Falls and developed a new three-year Strategic Plan.
The Board says that plan will guide the organization’s next chapter, with a focus on stronger community partnerships, long-term sustainability, food access and advocacy.
The Table has hired Eastern Ontario-based TAP Strategy & HR Consulting to lead the recruitment process for its next Executive Director.
The Board says programs and services will continue during the transition, and Rainer will help ensure continuity as new leadership comes in.
