1 week ago
Regular Full-Time – Pay Grade 13 ($42.33 – $45.74/hour – 2024 Rates)
We acknowledge and respect that the District of Oak Bay lies in the traditional territory of the ləkʷəŋən people, known today as the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations, and that their historic connections to these lands continue to this day.
Oak Bay is a picturesque seaside community located within the Greater Victoria Region, with a population of +18,000. While offering all the amenities of a large metropolitan urban centre, Oak Bay has succeeded in maintaining all the peacefulness and charm of a small town. Residents enjoy an exceptional quality of life, with miles of spectacular West Coast shoreline, brilliant beaches, parks and greenspace, quaint tree-lined streets and vibrant, boutique villages just beyond their doorsteps.
Are you a highly skilled Building Official ready to take on a pivotal role? The District of Oak Bay is seeking a dedicated professional to join the Community Building and Planning Services Department to focus on in-office code reviews for permits rather than inspections. This is an exciting opportunity to apply your expertise in BC Building and Plumbing Codes, contribute directly to the safety and development of Oak Bay, and advance your career in a supportive environment.
Reporting to the Director of Community Building and Planning Services, the Building Official I performs skilled work involving plan reviews and inspections, primarily for standard buildings and structures, along with the application, interpretation and enforcement of building and plumbing codes, regulations and local bylaws pertaining to construction and land development within the District.
Our ideal candidate has their high school graduation, two years of directly related experience, along with either a directly related Trades Qualification, or a Building Technology Diploma from a recognized college or technical institute (in the absence of a Trades Qualification or Building Technology Diploma, we seek a candidate with their high school graduation and at least six years of directly related experience). Level 1 Building Inspection Certification issued by the Building Officials Association of British Columbia and a valid and subsisting BC Driver's License are also required. Please note that the use of a personal vehicle for municipal business may be required. Experience in code review is required and experience/familiarity with zoning bylaw reviews would be an asset for this role. This position is represented by CUPE Local 374.
In addition to a competitive salary, we offer a supportive and collaborative work environment, continued career and professional development opportunities, opportunities for flexible work arrangements, employee engagement events, work-life balance, and staff membership to the weightroom, fitness classes, skating and pool. An employer of choice, the District of Oak Bay is committed to fostering a culture of empowerment, accountability, and teamwork.
We want to hear from you if you are qualified and thrive on the challenges this position has to offer. Please apply in confidence, by 4:30 p.m. on Friday, December 12, 2025, with a resume and cover letter to:
