We also provide services to the community including digitization of personal electronic items. We support governance and administrative operations on reserve and across territories.
About the Records Management team – We are a small team tasked with preserving governance records, largely digitized, and implementing data security and privacy standards across all departments. We work closely with IT to develop processes to protect Chief an Council, MIB employees, and community members being served by programs. We conduct research and records retrieval according to the needs of other departments.
About the Role – We re seeking a highly competent individual with significant experience working with information policy laws and standards in B.C. and Canada. We are looking for a candidate with experience supporting First Nations and Indigenous organizations, communities, and initiatives. The ideal candidate is able to work in a hybrid-office setting, largely unsupervised, and conduct research to improve existing records policies.
