**Did you know?**
Regional Directors represent the Bank of Canada across the country, supporting the engagement of the Bank with Canadians. As part of this role, they gather economic intelligence and conduct surveys that bring a broad range of perspectives into the work of the Bank.

**What you will do**
The Canadian Economic Analysis Department (CEA) provides economic analysis and research that support the Bank’s monetary policy function. Within this department, the Survey and Economic Intelligence Division (SEID) works from the Bank’s regional offices to establish two-way engagement with Canadians. SEID conducts consultations and surveys, including the Business Outlook Survey, Business Leaders' Pulse and the Canadian Survey of Consumer Expectations. Using intelligence from these and other sources, SEID conducts research and analysis to support monetary policy-making.

SEID also builds and maintains a network of contacts in business, civil society, government and academia. This allows it to rapidly gather information on key economic developments. SEID communicates with this network to improve the public’s understanding of Bank policies. SEID also works closely with the Communications Department to support the Bank’s Governing Council in engaging with Canadians across the country.

Under the general direction of the Director of SEID, the Regional Director is responsible for leading these activities in the regional office and for leading a team including an economist and a research assistant. The Director and the Regional Directors provide strategic leadership for the division.

Specifically you will:

- promote a vision for the Regional Office for British Columbia and the Yukon that is consistent with the needs of the Bank, while working cohesively with other leaders to help set an engaging, collaborative and motivating work environment in the department
- lead business intelligence gathering activities, including conducting and analysing information from quarterly industry visits for the Business Outlook Survey and other surveys and consultations. This involves some travel within the region and, occasionally, across Canada
- guide and participate in the team’s wide range of policy-relevant, high-quality economic analysis products. Help your staff grow and be successful by providing coaching and feedback on their analytical work, enabling them to draw reasoned conclusions from their work, and helping them effectively communicate insights
- plan and undertake outreach initiatives with industry, civil society, business associations, government departments, academics and others, including by coordinating visits by members of Governing Council in British Columbia and the Yukon

**What you need to succeed**
You know the key business sectors and economic issues in British Columbia and the Yukon. You also have excellent communication skills, including the ability to adapt to the audience, clarify complex information and convey sensitive information in an appropriate manner. This will allow you to build on your existing relationships in the region to form a network that can yield economic insights, support and co-operation.

You are a proven leader with the ability to make a team effective by providing guidance and supervision, inspiring confidence and motivation, optimizing performance, supporting long-term development of others and resolving disagreements. You are also an intellectual leader, with the ability to analyze complex issues and devise appropriate strategies, including by leading and conducting high-quality economic analysis. You put these abilities into action with flexibility and strong multitasking skills in an environment with high expectations and fixed timelines.

**Nice-to-have**
- strong network in British Columbia and the Yukon business, civil society, government and academic communities
- experience developi
