Vancouver consistently ranks as one of the world’s most liveable cities and is working towards being the greenest city in the world. Named among Canada's Top 100 Employers, BC's Top Employers, and Canada's Greenest Employers, the City of Vancouver seeks colleagues who can help shape and embody our core commitments to sustainability, decolonization, equity and outstanding quality of life for all residents.

The BCA program is an annual program involving third party visual assessments to document the condition of building elements within a portfolio of over 600 City of Vancouver buildings. The outcomes of the BCA program help develop the annual capital maintenance program.

Under the guidance of the Facilities Asset Manager and Business Analysis, this position ensures the ongoing accuracy (quantity and condition) of the building inventory, building systems within the portfolio database, and core building records within corporately supported systems.

- Highlights potential risks and issues related to timeline, budget or quality and makes recommendations to the Asset Manager on modifications to scope, processes, training, or tools used to support assessment outcomes to accommodate changing organisation needs.
- Tracks key project benchmarks and KPIs internally and externally to determine project performance.
- Develops, maintains, and supports documentation processes for projects, facility records, and facility information, and maintenance of facilities data in departmental data systems and records.
- Conducts strategic analysis of project-related topics (e.g. external benchmarking, leading practices research, survey analysis).
- Supports the management of the BCA program including planning and scheduling of assessments, conducting site visits and orientations, reviewing and approving deliverables, monitoring project budget, schedule and scope, and coordinating and engaging various stakeholders.
- Supports other projects and initiatives in Facilities Sustainment and REFM as assigned.
