Description
The Team
Connected Services BC (CSBC) brings together teams, expertise, and service channels from across government to deliver more trusted, inclusive, and connected services for people and businesses in B.C. It operates through a six-division structure spanning Access, Delivery, and Direction, designed to reduce fragmentation and improve outcomes. Within CSBC, the Technical Direction Division is a large, established team that sets enterprise technology standards and guardrails-including a complex cybersecurity function-to ensure systems are secure, interoperable, and aligned to shared platforms. As part of this team, you’ll collaborate across disciplines in an inclusive, supportive environment to strengthen security, simplify systems, and enable responsible, modern digital services across government.
The Role
As the Senior Executive Director, you will create and lead the vision and direction for government cybersecurity, guiding strategy, policy, and transformation to protect public services and data. Increasingly, the role leads through orchestration and influence by setting enterprise direction, convening partners, and governing shared security outcomes, rather than through direct ownership of every control or system.
This role offers uncommon scope, influence, and purpose. The opportunity is to shape how trust, resilience, and cybersecurity are built into public services used by millions of people, and to build enduring capability that extends well beyond individual systems or technologies. While ambitious in scope, success will be achieved through clear prioritization, partnership, and sustained progress over time. It is a chance to leave a durable legacy by strengthening leadership literacy, institutional trust, and secure service delivery at a scale and societal importance rarely found in the private sector. For more information about CSBC, visit our SharePoint page.

- A large, established Technical Direction division within Connected Services BC
- Existing cybersecurity teams, tools, governance structures, and strong partnerships across ministries and shared platforms
- Support from enterprise functions including architecture, procurement, and digital strategy
- A mandate to prioritize and sequence transformation over time
Key priorities in your first 12-18 months may include:
- Establish enterprise cybersecurity priorities and governance
- Strengthen alignment across ministries and shared services
- Improve enterprise visibility of cyber risk
- Advance modernization in high-risk areas
What success looks like in this role:
- Enterprise-wide adoption of clear cybersecurity priorities and governance
- More transparent, decision-ready view of cyber risk across ministries
- Stronger alignment between security, platforms, and service delivery

- Increased leadership capability and accountability for cybersecurity across government
