Job description

The Opportunity:

The Ministry of Parks, Culture and Sport is seeking a strategic and collaborative leader to join the Park Business Services team as Manager, Business Development and Leasing.

In this role, you will lead a team of professionals responsible for commercial and institutional leasing, business development and expansion initiatives, and related program administration within Saskatchewan's provincial parks. You will provide leadership and operational oversight while helping shape the strategic direction of business development and leasing activities that support private sector investment, effective lease management and the long-term sustainability of the provincial park system.

Our ideal candidate is a thoughtful and solutions-focused leader who can move comfortably between strategic and operational work. You can analyze complex issues, weigh competing interests, identify risks and opportunities, and provide clear, evidence-based advice. You bring strong people leadership and relationship-building skills and create an environment where employees are supported, accountable and able to do their best work.

You understand that effective business development within provincial parks requires balancing investment and service opportunities with legislation, policy, operational realities, stakeholder interests and the broader public interest. You are comfortable navigating ambiguity and sensitive or complex issues and translating strategic direction into practical action.

Typically, the knowledge and experience required for this position would be obtained through post-secondary education in business administration, public administration, commerce, land management, planning or another relevant discipline, combined with progressively responsible leadership experience. An equivalent combination of education, training and experience will be considered.

Candidates must clearly indicate in their cover letter or resume where they have acquired their knowledge, skills, and abilities. The selection of candidates will be assessed based on this information.
