Step into a leadership role where your actions directly support safe, high-quality care in a complex and ever-changing correctional health environment. As an Assistant Health Care Manager, you'll partner closely with the Health Care Manager to coordinate clinic operations, support primary care and psychiatry services, oversee nursing staff, and ensure the timely ordering of medical supplies and medications. You'll also play a key role in advancing the electronic medical record system, liaising with Infection Prevention and Control partners, and supporting occupational health initiatives. In this fast-paced setting, you'll regularly support front-line staff in troubleshooting barriers—often navigating competing priorities between healthcare and institutional operations—while collaborating with key partners such as staff sergeants and operational managers to get results. This role is ideal for a strong, people-centered leader who combines assertiveness with kindness and leads through influence, trust, and collaboration. You'll be responsible for guiding and encouraging your team, while also managing critical HR-related processes such as scheduling and invoicing—making a background in these areas essential. Success requires someone who is highly organized, able to manage multiple priorities, and willing to step in beyond standard hours when needed. A true team player and relationship-builder, you'll foster a respectful and inclusive workplace while driving accountability and performance. For a motivated leader who thrives in a dynamic environment and is committed to supporting both staff and patient outcomes, this role offers a meaningful and rewarding opportunity. Leadership That Makes a Difference At its core, leadership in the Ontario Public Service (OPS) is about creating positive change for people and communities across Ontario. We're looking for leaders who are authentic, accountable, and courageous. People who bring others together, ask bold questions, and lead with purpose.

Manage staffing and key HR-related processes by overseeing scheduling and invoicing, supporting attendance and performance management, and contributing to recruitment and retention efforts while ensuring alignment with collective agreements and ministry expectations.
Collaborate with key operational partners to get results by building strong relationships with staff sergeants, managers, and institutional stakeholders to navigate competing priorities between healthcare and operations and ensure coordinated, effective decision-making.

En tant que chef adjoint des services de soins de santé, vous travaillerez en étroite collaboration avec le chef des services de soins de santé pour coordonner les opérations relatives aux services cliniques, soutenir les services de soins primaires et de psychiatrie, superviser le personnel infirmier et garantir la commande des fournitures médicales et des médicaments en temps opportun.

Ce poste convient parfaitement à une personne qui exerce un leadership fort et centré sur les personnes, qui allie l'assurance et la gentillesse, et qui dirige par l'influence, la confiance et la collaboration. Vous serez chargé de guider et d'encourager votre équipe, tout en gérant des processus essentiels liés aux ressources humaines comme l'établissement d'horaires et la facturation, ce qui rend essentielle une expérience dans ces domaines.

If a check is needed and you've lived outside of Canada in the past 5 years for 6 or more months in a row, or if you are not a Canadian resident, you'll need to provide an out-of-country police clearance certificate from the country you lived in. Employment screening checks are only reviewed and evaluated by the Transition and Security Office, which also maintains them and keeps them strictly confidential.

Ce poste convient parfaitement à une personne qui exerce un leadership fort et centré sur les personnes, qui allie l'assurance et la gentillesse, et qui dirige par l'influence, la confiance et la collaboration.

British Columbia College of Nurses & Midwives Chief Officer, Licensing, Standards & Education Chief Officer, Practice, Oversight & Quality Location: Vancouver, BC With great respect, we acknowledge that BCCNM’s office is located on the unceded territories of the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ speaking peoples – xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, and the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh-ulh Sníchim speaking peoples - Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation) whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day.
The British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM) is the largest health regulator in Western Canada and the first in Canada to regulate both nursing and midwifery. Regulating more than 79,000 licensed practical nurses, nurse practitioners, registered nurses, registered psychiatric nurses, and midwives, BCCNM plays a critical role in protecting the public by ensuring safe, ethical, and competent care across British Columbia.
Following the retirement of its Chief Officer, Regulatory Policy and Programs, BCCNM has created two new executive positions: the Chief Officer, Licensing, Standards, and Education (CO, LSE) and the Chief Officer, Practice Oversight and Quality (CO, POQ). Together, these complementary roles reflect BCCNM's commitment to strengthening regulation, elevating its voice at the executive table, and advancing a modern, risk-informed approach to public protection.
Reporting to the Registrar & Chief Executive Officer, both Chief Officers are key members of the Executive Leadership Team. Working in close partnership, they provide strategic leadership across the regulatory lifecycle – from entry to practice through ongoing oversight and quality assurance. The CO, LSE leads a team of 76 overseeing licensing, standards of practice & policy development, education program review, and standards support program areas, while the CO, POQ oversees a team of 65 responsible for professional conduct review, quality assurance, and research and evaluation functions.While each role brings a distinct portfolio, both require accomplished, seasoned executives who can lead through influence, navigate complexity, and inspire high-performing, multidisciplinary teams. The successful candidates will be strategic, collaborative, and politically astute leaders who build trusted relationships, champion innovation, and advance regulatory excellence in service of the public interest.
These are exceptional opportunities to shape the future of health profession regulation in British Columbia while helping lead one of Canada's most respected and progressive health regulators. Guided by BCCNM's values—Nutsamaht (we are one), Caring, Leaderful, Collaborative, Strategic, and Humble—the successful candidates will lead with courage, integrity, and a deep commitment to reconciliation, equity, and public protection.
The anticipated salary range for these positions is between $222,322 - $270,234. Placement within a salary band is typically based upon a review of skills, experience, and internal equity.
