What we offer
We operate in a flat organizational structure. All staff are self-directed, working collaboratively to meet deadlines in a fun, spirited and head-down-focused, kind of way. Transparency is one of our culture pieces that we work hard to maintain. Conversations and meetings are open for anyone to join or listen to the recording if you are interested.
We work towards the objectives and guidelines of our physician leadership developed strategic plan, with a high degree of freedom to figure out how to achieve together with our staff team. We offer opportunities for professional development, personal growth, development, and skill building. The following is our perk list:
Paying fairly is important to us. Being equitable to our current staff team is equally important to us. We have a wide range pay scale that represents where you will start if you have low to no Division, non-profit or similar job equivalent experience. The top end of the scale shows where you can progress to after Division experience, as this carries value compared to standard work experience, given our unique environment.
Group benefits with medical, dental and life insurance start after 3 months. Vacation starts at 2 weeks and increases to 3 weeks after three years and 4 weeks after five years of employment.
It is not uncommon to work a flexible schedule, after completing your 3-month probationary period, with proven ability to meet outcomes, deadlines and displaying professional conduct.
We support volunteering. You will have the opportunity to volunteer to support the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows communities with our team or individually.
Work with meaning and purpose with an amazing group of passionate, supportive, and talented people, that we call our Division Family. Together, we make staff development a priority whether it is teamwork building, education, recognizing something awesome you contributed or celebrating your work anniversary.
Working conditions
The administrative coordinator requires availability to work from Monday to Friday, in office, during regular working hours between 8 am – 6 pm (you choose your best start and end time, i.e.: 9am-5pm, 10am-6pm) with the flexibility of attending early morning, evening and/or occasional weekend meetings to accommodate physician’s schedules. The coordinator will need to accommodate and manage a flexible schedule. In exchange, the Division supports your work life schedule with returned flexibility along with staff team support. Travel will be necessary across the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows region and reliable transportation is required.
We love to celebrate, consider ourselves a Division family with lots of sharing, and we laugh, like a lot. Oh, and you will see lots of whiteboards with our continuous planning, learning, changing, and adapting. We love to skill up our team, support staff growth and have people try something new. It is common in our office to be rallying as a team to lend a helping hand to do community work with our seniors or collections for the food bank. Expect to take breaks during your work week for anything such as a team high tea, team bowling, dressing up in a character from ‘The Office’ or standing on the street with a sign that says ‘honk for your doc’ for some member appreciation. We also pay attention to health and wellness whether that is ensuring we have fun injected into our daily routines, doing a walk ‘n talk meeting or hiring a local fitness guru to do some deep stretch classes with us.
