The City of Vancouver looks for people who are passionate about service and want to support the City’s ambition to become a more exceptional community. We value employees who are adaptable, innovative and collaborative and hold themselves to the highest standard of excellence. Here, talented people from diverse backgrounds and expertise come together to create positive solutions and outcomes for the community we serve. We value diversity in every form. From engineers and police officers, to urban planners and swim instructors, and all races, gender identities, ethnicities and belief systems. This is what makes Vancouver an exceptional place to work and grow.
