Creative BC is the Province of British Columbia's economic development agency for the creative sector and one of Canada's most influential creative economy organizations. Operating at the intersection of culture, business, innovation, and public policy, Creative BC serves as the catalyst for a globally connected creative ecosystem that has established British Columbia as an international leader in film and television production, visual effects, animation, interactive digital media, music, and publishing. Through its strategic partnerships with government, industry, creators, Indigenous communities, and international stakeholders, the organization helps shape an industry that contributes billions of dollars annually to the provincial economy while showcasing British Columbia's talent and creativity on the world stage.
As an independent organization, Creative BC administers significant provincial investment and tax credit programs, operates the internationally recognized BC Film Commission, supports the growth of homegrown creative companies and talent, and promotes British Columbia as one of the world's premier destinations for creative production and investment. Guided by a commitment to innovation, inclusion, integrity, and collaboration, Creative BC is entering an important new chapter as it builds on a strong foundation and positions both the organization and the sector for long-term success.
Reporting to the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer will provide strategic and operational leadership to an organization that sits at the centre of British Columbia's creative economy. The CEO will lead the execution of Creative BC's mandate while serving as a trusted advisor to government, a respected partner to industry, and an influential ambassador for British Columbia's creative sector at home and internationally. Responsible for organizational performance, financial stewardship, stakeholder engagement, and the delivery of programs that support thousands of creators and businesses across the province, the CEO will help shape the future of one of North America's most dynamic creative jurisdictions.
Working across government, industry associations, Indigenous communities, educational institutions, and international partners, the successful candidate will strengthen relationships, build organizational alignment, and position Creative BC to capitalize on emerging opportunities in an increasingly competitive global marketplace. This is a rare opportunity to influence public policy, attract international investment, foster innovation, and ensure British Columbia continues to be recognized as a global leader in creative industries.
