Bordered by rugged mountains and situated on a peninsula (no, it’s not an Island) in the territories of the shíshálh (Sechelt) and Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) First Nations, this area is known for its scenic coastline and sea life, mild winters, year-round green spaces, arts, recreation, and culture, and it is a preferred tourist destination and a great place to live, work and play. You can hike, bike, camp, kayak, golf, do fiber arts, snowshoe, fish, scuba dive, windsurf or as was portrayed in the former TV show on CBC, you could even get into some beachcombing and see what other treasures you might find here on the beautiful Sunshine Coast.

Interested in applying?  Great and we will look forward to hearing from you!  Please craft a cover letter and let us know what interests you about this role and what you have to offer.  Please include a current resume and quote the competition number and submit it in confidence via EMAIL to Human Resources by the closing date and time shown above.  Information about the educational and experience requirements, key responsibilities and typical tasks of this role are in the job description available with the website posting at www.scrd.ca/employment.
