Victoria, British Columbia – British Columbia Investment Management Corporation (BCI) is proud to be named one of BC’s Top Employers for the fifth consecutive year. The award is part of Canada’s Top 100 Employers competition produced by Mediacorp Canada Inc., which also named BCI one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers in November.

“British Columbia remains at the heart of our mandate as our team and investment portfolio continues to expand globally,” says Norine Hale, BCI’s Executive Vice President, Human Resources. “The province is home to more than 750 BCI team members and countless beneficiaries of the public sector clients we serve, making this recognition particularly meaningful.”

The award is a testament to BCI’s work in building a progressive and welcoming workplace of choice that attracts, retains, and promotes world-class talent. With strong marks across all eight award criteria,¹ this year highlights BCI’s commitment to fostering healthy and resilient communities through employee programs and corporate support as a driver for selection.

“Bringing together world-class professionals to do work that matters is key to our success,” adds Hale. “That same sense of connection extends beyond our workplace, and the dedication of our people to making the communities where we live and work better for all has become ingrained in BCI’s culture.”

Employees are empowered to participate in BCI’s community engagement initiatives including grassroots employee-led committees focused on volunteerism and fundraising. BCI recently doubled its paid volunteer time for team members to give back based on their personal passions. In 2023, employees gave back to more than 30 organizations with activities ranging from serving as on non-profit boards to frontline support. Through grassroots fundraising activities, BCI employees have raised more than $1.2 million since 2000.

On March 7, BCI was honoured to also be named one of Canada’s Top Family-Friendly Employers in recognition of our parental leave packages, comprehensive benefits plan, health and wellness supports, and generous vacation policy.

Mediacorp Canada Inc. is the nation’s largest publisher of employment periodicals, reaching millions of Canadians each year. To read BCI’s top employer profile, visit the Canada’s Top 100 Employers website and read the special feature published in the Vancouver Sun.
