Job description

Bridge2FutureBC is a 3‑year provincial initiative (April 2026 – March 2029) designed to address persistent gaps in youth employment for individuals 16-30 years old receiving income assistance across British Columbia. Many youth in this population face systemic barriers to employment, including limited work experience, lack of access to training opportunities, and reduced exposure to supportive employment networks. At the same time, employers across the province continue to experience labour shortages, particularly in entry‑level and transitional positions. This program is designed to bridge the gap by connecting youth to meaningful, paid work and training opportunities that support long‑term labour market attachment in the food systems sector.

Bridge2FutureBC takes an equity‑informed and evidence‑driven approach, centring youth with lived experience and engaging employers, service providers, and community organisations in co‑developing solutions. The program aims not only to support individual participants but also generate insights and approaches that can inform future workforce development strategies across BC.

By intentionally aligning income assistance employment pathways with food systems work, Bridge2FutureBC aims to address both poverty‑related food insecurity and workforce gaps, supporting healthier communities and more resilient local food systems across BC.

Key program goals include:

  • Increasing access to paid employment and skills training for youth on income assistance
  • Building confidence, work readiness, and transferable skills
  • Supporting sustained attachment to the labour market and reducing reliance on income assistance over time
  • Strengthening collaboration between employers, communities, and service systems
  • Identifying scalable and replicable approaches to youth employment programming

Key Accountabilities and Responsibilities

  • Oversee the regional implementation of Bridge2FutureBC, ensuring alignment with organisational goals, community needs, and funding requirements.
  • Recruit, onboard, and support youth and food sector employers.
  • Provide mentorship to youth, fostering engagement, learning, and skill development.
  • Organise and facilitate work placements, ensuring a safe, meaningful, and impactful experience.
  • Monitor program impact, track participation, and report data to ensure alignment with funding requirements.
  • Establish and maintain strong relationships with employers, community organisations, WorkBC centres, and other stakeholders to enhance programme reach and impact.
  • Foster a positive and inclusive team culture while collaborating with the Provincial Manager and other Regional Leads to share best practices, troubleshoot challenges, and strengthen programme delivery.
  • Support creating safe, inclusive, and empowering environments for youth, ensuring their voices and lived experiences inform programme design and delivery.
  • Represent the programme and organisation at community events and meetings.
  • Assist in curriculum development and learning materials related to food systems and job skills alongside the Provincial Manager and Regional Leads.
  • Complete administrative tasks such as reporting, document management, and budget tracking.
