Are you a planning professional who gets excited about shaping communities, guiding sustainable growth, and occasionally impressing people at dinner parties with phrases like “land use framework”? Do you enjoy bringing order to complexity, making good plans even better, and helping communities turn vision into reality?
We’re looking for a dynamic Director of Planning to help guide the future of an active and growing community in the heart of British Columbia’s beautiful South Cariboo.
The good news? You won’t be inheriting chaos. Our current Director is retiring after carefully organizing her files, tying up loose ends, and (we suspect) colour-coding at least a few things for your convenience. Even better, you’ll be stepping into a freshly updated Official Community Plan and Zoning Bylaw, so yes, the “rewrite everything from scratch” phase is officially someone else’s story.
If you’re ready to build on strong foundations, bring fresh ideas to a well-prepared desk, and help shape a community that’s as ambitious as it is welcoming, we’d love to hear from you.
Flexible Work Arrangement
We recognize that experienced planning professionals are looking for flexibility in how they work. While this position may be filled as a full-time role, we are also open to considering reduced work hours or a part-time arrangement for the right candidate. If you're seeking a flexible schedule while continuing to make a meaningful impact, we'd be pleased to discuss options with you.
Come join our team in the heart of the Cariboo!
How to Apply
If you are excited by the idea of helping a small community with big heart thrive, balancing development, economic opportunity, and quality of life – we would like to hear from you!
To apply, please submit a resume and cover letter to district@100milehouse.com. We thank all applicants for their interest and advise that only those selected for an interview will be contacted.
