The Community has a profound connection to their traditional territories. It is devoted to maintaining the traditions of the Nlaka'pamux people, encompassing their language, culture, and land, through community empowerment, well-being, and sustained economic prosperity for future generations.

We seek a Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) with exceptional strategic planning and operations management expertise and a collaborative work style. As the CAO, you will play a pivotal role in guiding the Community in overseeing the strategic direction, governance policies and operational excellence of the band administration in alignment with their cultural values.

  • Advocate for projects and initiatives that bolster community well-being, cultural heritage, sustainability, robust governance, and economic growth.
  • Facilitate effective community engagement and communications, ensuring members are informed and involved in initiatives.
  • Foster robust relationships with community members, external partners, and government entities, representing the Community's interests.
  • Ensure adherence to all relevant legislation, regulations, and agreements, proactively addressing any changes that may impact the Community.

  • A strong understanding of First Nations governance, culture, and community needs, ideally within BC.
  • Exceptional strategic planning, financial skills, and collaborative work style with various partners, including the Chief and Council, Community, and external entities.
  • A servant-leader mindset combined with humility, strong coaching, mentoring, and capacity-building skills.
  • High financial acumen with experience in budgeting, risk management, and reporting.
