FNESC offers full-time career opportunities both in our office and in the field (throughout BC). About two-thirds of our employees work in our office in West Vancouver, located on Squamish Nation lands. The other one-third of our employees are home based and travel throughout British Columbia to provide services to First Nations communities and schools.
FNESC works to advance quality First Nations education for all First Nations learners from early childhood through to post-secondary. We also provide administrative and direct program support to the First Nations Schools Association and the Indigenous Adult and Higher Learning Association. We offer competitive salaries, professional development opportunities and subsidies, wellness subsidies, and a professional and respectful work environment where health, safety, and respect are priorities. Our employees are offered above average vacation entitlement, benefits, and an employer-matched pension plan. We also enjoy having some fun at work, including having occasional lunches together as a team. Pizza is one of our favorites.
To apply, please send your resume and cover letter to jobs@fnesc.ca with the job title in the subject line. While we appreciate everyone’s interest in FNESC, unfortunately we are only able to contact those applicants who have been selected for an interview.
