BC Place is where unforgettable experiences happen—from packed stadium concerts and major league sports to global summits and community celebrations. We’re looking for a sharp, savvy Director, Events and Guest Experience to elevate our events and guest experience from great to unforgettable.
Reporting to the Assistant General Manager, the Director, Events and Guest Experience , will be at the heart of it all—shaping how events are delivered and how every guest experiences the magic of BC Place.

• Driving Strategic Initiatives
Play a key role on the leadership team—aligning event strategy with organizational goals, identifying emerging opportunities, and ensuring every event supports our broader vision.
• Delivering on Commitments
Ensure all contractual obligations for event delivery are met. Proactively manage timelines, track performance, and resolve challenges before they become issues.
• Watching the Bottom Line
Monitor financial performance of events, evaluate ROI, and help ensure that every event is both impactful and profitable.
Be a visible ambassador at industry events, client meetings, and community forums—promoting our brand and building strong external relationships.
• Staying Ahead of the Curve
Track industry trends, technology, and best practices to keep BC Place at the forefront of event innovation.
