Join to apply for the Production Manager role at BC Children's Hospital Foundation

At BC Children’s Hospital Foundation (BCCHF), we’re on a quest to ensure every kid in the province receives the best health care imaginable. As a fundraising organization, we inspire communities and people to support BC Children’s Hospital, along with its world-class research institute, mental health facility and rehabilitation center.

Our work makes a profound difference. From helping get the boldest research ideas off the ground to supporting the most advanced equipment, together we are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in children’s health care. This is no small task—which is why we’re looking for passionate people to join our team and help propel our work forward to power the possible.

What you’ll do

It’s an exciting moment to join our Brand team. We are continuing to grow and nurture our Small is Mighty brand platform, bringing it to life in ways that ignite imagination, deepen connection, and shift what’s possible for child health.

In this newly created role as Production Manager, you’ll be at the heart of delivering our creative work, bringing structure, flow, and clarity to a high-performing and high-volume, multi-disciplined team. You’ll oversee creative production and workflow management across the department, ensuring we’re delivering impactful work that’s on time, to specification, and to scope. From capacity planning and production execution to asset management and vendor coordination, you’ll be the key to keeping projects moving with a keen eye on the quality of work being delivered. You will help the team run efficiently and sustainably, ensuring the delicate balance of big picture focus with the details that matter.

Reporting to the Creative Director, you’ll lead and manage the production process across our creative and marketing teams - playing a critical role in how we bring ideas to life, from concept through to execution.

More specifically, you will :

• Oversee department-wide workflow using Asana, ensuring seamless coordination and visibility across teams.
• Lead creative capacity planning and production cycles to balance workload.
• Manage creative intake—assessing requests, clarifying scope and ensuring alignment with team capacity and strategic priorities.
• Ensure projects and creative assets are delivered on time, on brief, to specifications, and to scope.
• Own project management processes and help shape best practices for how work gets done.
• Manage and liaise with freelance contractors, from briefing to approvals, payments and documentation to final deliverables.
• Coordinate and support production for video and photoshoots, from pre-production to delivery.
• Manage trafficking and delivery of assets across channels and departments.
• Maintain and oversee digital asset libraries, ensuring accurate tagging, cataloguing and updates.
• Collaborate with vendors to secure quotes, confirm specs, and coordinate production deliverables serving as the key point of contact.
• Proactively identify and remove barriers that may block the team’s progress.
• Promote cross-functional collaboration by ensuring teams have the context and information needed to move forward.
• Champion team focus by proactively removing distractions, setting boundaries, and help safeguard time and energy for the priority work.

Why you’ll love this role

You thrive at the intersection of creativity and operations — bringing order to complexity, solving problems before they escalate, and empowering others to do their best work. You're calm under pressure, deeply collaborative, and motivated by creating space for others to do their best work.

You get the big picture — equally comfortable creating high level plans then seamlessly transitioning to the day-to-day co-ordination of tasks — keeping a sharp eye on the details.

You possess an innate instinct to work smarter, constantly envisioning how a process can be improved and how a team could be better supported. If you’re energized by bringing structure to creativity and purpose to process, you’ll feel right at home here.
