·      Coaching and developing the maintenance team, incl. recruiting, onboarding, training, performance management, handling employee issues.

·      Creating, communicating, and implementing agency’s policies and procedures.

·      Overseeing and delegating activities of contractors and suppliers as appropriate, ensuring quality control, compliance with applicable regulations, contractual terms, and organization standards.

·      Coordinating and implementing emergency/security preparedness, fire safety, and security programs onsite, in consultation with appropriate resources.

·      Operating within the department budget.

·      Liaising with BC Housing on all mutual projects, as well as with other government agencies/funders as required.

·      Supporting the senior leadership team and Executive Director with ensuring the strategies of JHSOK are realized.

JHSOK is seeking a mature professional with a proven track record of leading teams, progressive experience in property management or a related trade, and demonstrated business acumen. The right person will also have strong communication, organizational and relationship-building skills, computer competency, as well as compassionate attitude towards vulnerable population, incl. persons with experiences of drug use, homelessness, and criminal justice involvement.

This leadership opportunity in the nonprofit sector is a rewarding career choice with direct impact on well-being of many local residents. It is a chance to join a team of dedicated and caring professionals who work hard to make our community a better and safer place for everyone.

JHSOK offers a competitive salary, extended benefits, RRSP matching, generous paid time off and flexible schedule between 32-40 hrs/week. Starting full time salary will be $84,000 with opportunities for increases based on experience, expertise and contributions.
