Impact Statement
The Greater Victoria Citizens’ Counselling Centre has provided accessible, sliding-scale counselling to Greater Victoria residents since 1969. We are a registered BC society and CRA-registered charity, delivering over 5,400 hours of counselling annually through a small paid staff team and roughly 100 trained volunteer counsellors.
Description
As we review staff compensation and manage growth in our operating model, we need board-level HR governance to navigate these decisions well. You will provide oversight of GVCCC's people practices, from volunteer recruitment and orientation to hiring, compensation, and staff support. You will lead the board's role in the Executive Director's performance review and compensation, advise on hiring processes, oversee our volunteer engagement model, and ensure our people practices comply with the BC Employment Standards Act.
