Director of Lands and Resources – Xwísten

WMC is excited to partner with Xwísten (Bridge River Indian Band) in the search for a strategic and dynamic leader to join their administration as the Director of Lands and Resources. Based in Lillooet, BC, this role is central to the ongoing stewardship of Xwísten’s unceded territory, which the community has inhabited since time immemorial.

The Director will play a crucial role in safeguarding environmental habitats, promoting sustainable land and resource use, and ensuring food security for the community.
