  • Researching and collating construction labour market, profession, and licensing trends to help inform the employment advice delivered by the BCCA-IN team.
  • Codeveloping labour and industry insights to share as content on the BCCA-IN web and social media channels (basic knowledge of video blogging and writing will be an advantage to you but are not mandatory).
  • Supporting the employment liaison specialist team, as required.


You will be joining a team with multi-industry and immigration experience who have built successful careers in Canada and are committed to providing practical advice to make the process easier for incoming professionals.
