As a not-for-profit organization, the Horticulture Centre of the Pacific (HCP) is governed by a society led by a Board of Directors. The Board oversees the HCP's strategic direction and financial performance, and upholds its operations, policies, and values to the highest standards.
The HCP Board's mandate flows from the District of Saanich. Saanich owns the land that HCP resides on and charges the HCP Society for operating and stewarding these lands. The HCP Board undertakes this responsibility in accordance with the BC Society Act and its job description. From these premises, HCP operates and according to Board policies and the HCP Society Bylaws.
The HCP's 2023-2025 Strategic Plan sets out some ambitious goals. To achieve them and meet our mandate, we need a strong, diverse, and dedicated Board that represents a range of skills, experience, talents, and the broader community.
We are actively recruiting new Board members who are passionate about the HCP and about growing it into the future. Also, as part of our succession planning process, we invite people who are interested in eventually serving on the Board Executive Committee and as Board Chair.
Are you an expert in horticultural business? Have you lead a not-for-profit organization? Are you a passionate fund raiser, or a human resources champion? Do you have other skills and experience that you believe would benefit the HCP?
