Employment Opportunities 
 
   

Namgis operations span a wide spectrum of activities with over eighty full time staff working in five main areas: Education, Health, Community Development, Natural Resources, and Administration. To see all of the positions that currently exist, scroll down the list of "Existing Positions" to the left.

 

People are drawn to work for us for many reasons. Our recognition of the importance of family and the resulting generous leaves and benefits that are reflected in our Personnel Policies help staff to balance work and family obligations. Our free Well Babies Clinics, Head Start, playgroup, and nursery programs are greatly appreciated by all in our community who have infants, toddlers and young children, and our extended benefits and pension plan provide both short and long-term security for all permanent staff.

 

   

For some, the natural beauty of the waters and mountains that surround our small island village are a key draw. Ocean kayaking, boating, and fishing are unparalleled in our area.

 

   For others, it is the quiet that holds them. Alert Bay is an oasis of calm in an otherwise frantic world. Here one has time for family, community, and work, and walking, cycling or driving to work is a pleasure, not a teeth-gnashing ordeal. Our island is only two miles long, so getting stuck in traffic is not an acceptable excuse for being late for work!
   

The stability of our elected Council and its progressive vision has resulted in a stable administration, with many staff having worked for us for ten years or more. Our financial stability has enabled us to act on the vision of both Council, and of those who have brought their skills, experience and dreams to our community. Making progress, effecting change, and seeing results brings much satisfaction and our track record is second to none.

If you are interested in joining our team, let us know by dropping us an email with an attached cover letter and resume. We will keep it on file so that if an opportunity arises in your area of interest and expertise, we will notify you. People tend to join us for their careers and then stay for the life style!
