The Vancouver Board of Education welcomes applications for the position of:
Office Administration
**On-Call Position**
The VSB is actively recruiting Office Administration staff for our on-call Office Support list as this is an area of shortage in our district. Most of our office administration positions are school-based; however, depending on your skill-set and interests there are opportunities to build your career in Human Resources, Payroll, Accounting, Purchasing, Operations, and various other departments. This position is on-call, but is busy throughout the year except during school breaks (e.g., July, August, Spring/Christmas Break).
Once hired, you can choose to remain on the on-call list or you can apply to the VSB’s internal postings which include temporary contracts and continuing/permanent positions. School-based positions are generally 10 month positions (offices closed during school breaks); whereas, positions in the VSB Main Office are generally full-time, 12 month positions. All permanent positions include a comprehensive benefits package (including extended health, dental and municipal pension plan) after passing a probation period of 16 weeks.
When working in our schools, you will use your excellent customer service skills to answer the phone, manage the school office, and help direct on-call staff. You will also perform clerical duties including reconciling and processing accounts and invoices and composing and preparing correspondence and reports. As an active member of the school community, you will contribute to a positive school culture and have a direct impact on the staff and students.
Pay rates are determined by your technical skill level (Word/Excel/Typing) and whether you pass an accounting knowledge assessment:
General Rate: $25.90/hour plus 18.6% in lieu of benefits (total = $30.72/hour)
Rate for positions requiring higher technical skills + accounting knowledge: $29.68/hour plus 18.6% in lieu of benefits (total = $35.20/hour)
