Chief Executive Officer with the Royal BC Museum

Situated in the traditional territories of the Lekwungen – Songhees and Xwsepsum (Esquimalt) Nations – the Royal BC Museum and Archives (RBCM) holds a special place in the hearts and minds of British Columbians, Canadians and international visitors alike. RBCM’s collections, research and exhibitions enable visitors to understand and experience the stories of British Columbia in ways that enlighten, stimulate and inspire. By exploring British Columbia’s complex social and environmental histories and geographies, the RBCM advances new knowledge and understanding of the province and provides a dynamic forum for discussion and reflection.  It is committed to acting on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) Calls to Action, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) and British Columbia’s corresponding legislation, the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act (DRIPA). Furthermore, RBCM continues to work towards decolonizing its policies and is committed to repatriating Indigenous belongings through its province-wide partnerships and relationships with Indigenous communities.

With an opportunity to reimagine, renew and rebuild this iconic organization, the CEO will bring a steady hand to lead the organization through significant change, repatriation initiatives and the move to a two-campus operating model with the opening of the world-class PARC(Provincial Archives Research and Collections) building. The CEO will work closely and collaboratively with the Board to support their vision for the future of the Royal BC Museum & Archives and will lead a team of professionals in the implementation of a vigorous plan to realize that vision.

As the leader and public representative of the organization, the CEO will represent the Royal BC Museum & Archives, creating opportunities for community and donor engagement that will increase attendance, earned revenue opportunities and donations. With the engaged oversight of the Board, the CEO will be accountable for activities such as policy development, budgets, financial management, planning, and staffing.

As an advocate, the CEO will also look at avenues for collaboration within various constituencies to support and enhance the organization’s strategic priorities.  The work of the CEO will be guided by a commitment to excellence, accessibility, community engagement, growth and sustainability with meaningful pursuit of reconciliation woven throughout each of these priorities. Demonstrating leadership attributes that bring staff, communities, and ideas together, the ideal candidate for this position is a highly creative visionary thinker with significant senior leadership experience in government and/or, operations in a museum or major cultural not-for-profit setting. An exceptional, engaged leader with sound judgement, critical thinking and the ability to work independently and collaboratively with all partner groups to optimize administrative efficiency, is critical in this role. Given the nature of the collections at the RBCM, preference will be given to candidates with demonstrated positive experience working with Indigenous peoples.

The targeted salary range for this position is $243,000 – $309,309 annually, supplemented by a competitive total rewards package. Salary will be based on the candidate’s experience. Individuals with lived experience and knowledge of Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) communities, histories, values, legal orders, and cultural practices are encouraged to apply.

Fondée en 1994, l'OCMS est un organisme de bienfaisance enregistré auprès de l'Agence du revenu du Canada. Notre organisation caritative présente une programmation tout au long de l'année, y compris un festival de musique estival annuel, invitant des artistes et des publics locaux, nationaux et internationaux dans de magnifiques espaces acoustiques.

Sous la direction artistique de la violoniste Carissa Klopoushak, notre programmation annuelle couvre un large éventail de musique de chambre, de la musique traditionnelle à la musique contemporaine, pour un public tout aussi large et dynamique.  Nous nous engageons à atteindre l'excellence artistique, à proposer une programmation novatrice, à favoriser l'engagement communautaire et l'inclusion, et ce grâce à nos trois piliers de programmation : notre série de concerts automne-hiver; notre festival annuel d'été; et une gamme complète de programmes en Engagement communautaire et éducation (ECE). Les programmes ECE rendent la musique accessible à divers publics grâce à des événements tels que des concerts adaptés aux besoins spéciaux et aux communautés neurodiverses, des concerts pour la famille comme la série Amenez les enfants , des concerts gratuits dans les quartiers tels que Chamber Pints et la Série dans la cité, et des programmes éducatifs pour les musiciens émergents tels que les Etoiles montantes et Chamber Chats. Ce pilier se concentre également sur la création de communautés, en personne et en ligne, allant chercher de nouveaux publics en introduisant la musique dans les écoles, les établissements de soins et les espaces publics de toute la ville d'Ottawa. Sur le plan organisationnel, nous alignons nos opérations afin de répondre à, et d'avoir un impact positif sur, cette période de changement qui sévit tant au niveau de la société que de l'écosystème artistique, avec un enthousiasme et une créativité débordante.

Ottawa Chamberfest œuvre à la construction d'un monde où les droits, la dignité et la valeur de chaque être humain sont respectés et célébrés ; nous accordons une grande importance à l'équité et à la diversité. L'organisation s'efforce de créer un climat respectueux, sûr et inclusif, où chacun se sent bienvenue et valorisé, et où tous sont encouragés à apporter leur contribution.

Manager, Philanthropy and Fundraising

About Ottawa Chamberfest

A long-established pillar of Ottawa’s music community with national and international reach, the Ottawa Chamber Music Society (OCMS) is embarking on its 32nd year of operation in 2025/26. Founded in 1994, OCMS is a registered charity with the Canada Revenue Agency. Our charitable organization presents year-round programming—including an annual summer music festival—inviting local, national, and international artists and audiences into beautiful acoustic spaces.

Under the artistic direction of violinist Carissa Klopoushak, our year-long programming encompasses a broad spectrum of traditional-to-contemporary chamber music for equally broad and dynamic audiences.  We are committed to artistic excellence, innovative programming, community engagement, and inclusion through our three pillars of programming: our fall-winter Concert Series, our annual Summer Festival, and a full suite of Community Engagement and Education programming, which makes music accessible to diverse audiences through events like adaptive concerts for disability and neurodiverse communities, family-friendly concerts like the Bring the Kids! series, free neighbourhood concerts such as Chamber Pints and the City Series, and educational programs for emerging musicians like the Rising Stars showcase and Chamber Chats. This pillar also focuses on in-person and online community building, reaching new audiences by bringing music to schools, care facilities, and public spaces throughout Ottawa.) Organizationally, we are aligning our operations to meet and positively impact this time of both societal and arts ecosystem change with wide-eyed enthusiasm and creativity.

Ottawa Chamberfest works to build a world where the rights, dignity, and worth of every human being is respected and celebrated; we value equity and diversity. The organization strives to create a climate that is respectful, safe, and inclusive – where all feel welcome and valued, and where all are supported to make their contribution.

About the Role
The Manager, Philanthropy and Fundraising is a key position that bridges our organization’s work to audiences and the greater community!

This role designs and leads a comprehensive donor and fundraising plan with short-term and long-term targets that strategically activate individuals, foundations, corporations, and community partners. The fundraising plan incorporates current assets while developing new properties.

Internally, this role reports to the Executive Director with a strong thread to the Artistic Director. Together, this tri-vector of skills and experience both generate and deepen donor and philanthropic relationships. The Manager, specifically, is tasked to expand donor portfolios and match properties with donor interests.
