About working at PARC

PARC Retirement Living is everything that makes life the best it can be Our PARC Active Living program is key to keeping our residents healthy, vibrant, and self-reliant. It's easy, fun, inspiring, and soulful – enriching the body and the mind through four pillars of wellness: physical fitness, social pursuits, emotional health, and nutritious meals.

As Active Living Manager, you're at the centre of it all. You work closely with our Active Wellness Coach, residents, staff, and volunteers to deliver holistic wellness programs, lively social events, excursions, and more.

As PARC Active Living Manager, you're responsible for:

  • Planning and delivering programs, outings and special events that engage residents in heart-healthy, enriching, and fun activity.
  • Overseeing speaker series, PARC education, cultural programs, social events, the PARC technology lending library, event contractors and outings.
  • Cultivating a respectful, warm environment for residents and staff.
  • Championing the PARC Active Living program with residents, families, and prospects.
  • Planning and implementing an exciting monthly calendar of events and activities in tandem with other managers and staff.
  • Managing monthly and annual PARC Active Living budgets, purchasing supplies and equipment, and maintaining inventories.
  • Supporting and managing Residence Drivers, Active Wellness Coaches, and Volunteers.
  • Working closely with our community's Wellness Nurse on mental health programming and health-related seminars.

The perks of working at PARC

  • Meaningful work. How many jobs can say that? At PARC, you'll be making a positive difference in seniors' lives, each and every day.
  • Refreshments while you work. PARC's chef-prepared cuisine rivals the best in BC, and we offer subsidized daily meals and beverages to employees.
  • A supportive, diverse team and training opportunities. We believe in giving our people opportunities to advance wherever we can.
  • High-value benefits. We offer Extended Health, Vision, Dental, Life, AD&D and Disability Insurance, plus an Employee Assistance Program (EAP), to help protect your health, family and way of life. Plus: birthdays off with pay, parental top-ups and much more

It takes a special kind of person to work here – does this sound like you?

  • You've completed a recognized therapeutic recreation diploma or kinesiology, gerontology degree program, or equivalent education and experience. Some management experience would be an asset, too.
  • You have a minimum of two years' experience working with older adults preferably in a wellness or active event organizer role, and you're a certified Group Fitness Leader (or are willing to certify)
  • You're a problem-solver who thrives in a fast-paced, customer-facing work environment.
  • You're an effective communicator capable of fostering strong interpersonal relationships with residents, their families, and employees.
  • You're committed to continuous learning and development, and fostering the growth of your people.

At PARC Retirement Living we require a Criminal Record Check, and a TB test within the first month of employment.
