The District of Oak Bay is a picturesque oceanfront community within the Greater Victoria area, only a short commute to downtown Victoria. While offering all the amenities of a large metropolitan urban center, Oak Bay has succeeded in maintaining a sense of community and charm. This progressive organization is committed to public safety, community engagement, and a strong sense of pride in the connection between the municipality and its 18,000 residents.
The Oak Bay Police Department is seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented professional to fill the role of Records Manager. This is a pivotal administrative and operational position within the Oak Bay Police Department (OBPD), responsible for overseeing the integrity, security, and accessibility of departmental records.

Why This Role Matters
The Records Manager will play a critical role in shaping the department's records management practices and supporting operational excellence. This is more than an administrative role--it's an opportunity to lead modernization initiatives, develop and implement policies and procedures, and foster a culture of professionalism and accountability.

This role is ideal for a professional who is passionate about information management, compliance, and continuous improvement.

Experience with provincial policing systems, project management, and vendor relations is preferred.
This is a contract position. Terms are subject to negotiation.
