Job Summary Fraser Health is seeking a strategic, relationship‑driven leader to join the Digital Enablement – Clinical Ancillary Services and Business Relationship Management (BRM) portfolio. This role sits at the intersection of clinical care, digital enablement, and system transformation, playing a critical role in how technology supports frontline care delivery. It offers a unique opportunity to lead high‑impact teams, shape how work is coordinated across portfolio boundaries, and partner closely with clinical leaders to ensure digital and technical capabilities are intentionally aligned with care delivery needs.
What makes this role compelling:
Breadth and influence across clinical enablement, technical delivery, and strategic partnership
System‑level visibility, with direct impact on acute care operations and major redevelopment initiatives
Team‑building opportunity, including leading established teams and maturing newer ones
Leadership through collaboration, grounded in strong relationships and shared accountability
This is a role for a leader who embraces complexity, values partnership, and is motivated by meaningful, system‑wide impact.
Position Overview As Manager, Clinical Ancillary and BRM, you will lead four tightly connected portfolios:
Advance / Medical Device Integration (MDI)
Clinical Ancillary Portfolio Enablement (CAPE)
Business Relationship Management (BRM)
Clinical Ancillary Capital Redevelopment
These portfolios provide the foundational infrastructure, enablement, and relationship management that allow clinical portfolio teams to succeed. Their work directly supports acute care operations, clinical system integrations, capital redevelopment initiatives, and organization‑wide digital transformation efforts.
A defining aspect of this role is the strong, intentional partnership with the Manager, Clinical Ancillary, who leads the clinical portfolio teams.
Many of the portfolios under this role exist to enable, support, and amplify the clinical portfolios within Clinical Ancillary Services. Success is therefore highly dependent on shared leadership, alignment of priorities, and coordinated decision‑making across the two Manager roles.
Together, these roles function as complementary leadership counterparts, providing integrated oversight across the full portfolio lifecycle—from clinical strategy and intake, through technical enablement, delivery, and sustainment.
In practice, this partnership involves:
Joint planning, prioritization, and sequencing of work where portfolio dependencies exist
Close alignment on capacity planning, risk management, and escalation pathways
Presenting a unified leadership approach to clinical partners and senior leadership
Ensuring technical and enablement work is intentionally designed to meet clinical delivery needs
This is not a parallel or siloed role—it is deeply collaborative by design.
BC’s health system is in the process of transformation. As part of the planned changes, certain IM/IT, Finance, and Supply Chain roles are expected to be in scope for transition to a new provincial shared services organization, BC Shared Health Services. Candidates applying to positions in these areas should be aware that, while the role is currently employed by the Health Authority, it may transition to BC Shared Health Services as part of the first or subsequent implementation phases. The intent of this transition is to support continuity of employment; details regarding timing, process, and any impacts to employment arrangements will be confirmed as planning progresses.
