For more information on eligibility and responsibilities please see the Appointments Guidebook.

The BCLI welcomes candidates that bring diverse perspectives and experiences to the position; laws in BC will be more durable where they reflect the diversity in our population. The candidates will be committed to supporting reconciliation and access to justice for Indigenous peoples in BC. BCLI is also interested in representation from big firms and Indigenous firms.

The role of BCLI’s Board is to set strategic direction, ensure necessary resources, and provide governance and oversight of BCLI. Board members are expected to review materials and attend four regularly scheduled meetings per year. Board members also participate in one of five standing board committees, which usually meet two or three times per year. All meetings now occur electronically.

There is currently one vacancy open to all counties. The vacancy is for a three-year term commencing June 1, 2024. Individuals interested in being appointed to the BCLI Board of Directors are invited to submit an application form and supporting resume online.

We thank all applicants for their interest; however, only those candidates selected to move forward in the selection process will be contacted.
