Director of Planning & Economic Development

Are you a visionary leader who gets excited about shaping communities, supporting local business, and planning for smart, sustainable growth? Do you enjoy bringing order to complexity, making good plans even better, and occasionally impressing people at dinner parties with phrases like “land use framework”?

We’re looking for a dynamic Director of Planning & Economic Development 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. 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.

Opportunity Open Until Filled Full Time – Permanent | 40 hrs/wk Annual Salary Range $90,724 - $112,071 Benefits | Municipal Pension Plan | Flex Time Relocation Assistance Available
