Technical Project Manager Full Time

Join Us at Carey — A Place of Renewal, Rigor, and Conviction

Situated on the beautiful UBC campus in Vancouver, where it has served students and churches for over six decades, Carey Theological College is undergoing an ambitious transformation. This is not a traditional institutional posting—it’s a call to help rebuild something that matters. Carey is repositioning itself with the boldness of a startup, but the foundation of a historic, orthodox evangelical tradition. We are re-establishing our identity around theological clarity, classical formation, and the unchanging truths of Scripture. We are looking for those who are battle-tested—both spiritually and professionally. People who will not drift, who lead with conviction, and who are energized by the hard, often unseen work of rebuilding systems, culture, and mission. This is a role for builders, not maintainers. For those who want to leave behind institutional drift and help shape a place where truth is not only taught—but embodied. Roles at Carey are not static. They are designed to grow and evolve as the institute itself is renewed. If you’re ready to embrace complexity, bring order to chaos, and serve something larger than yourself, then we invite you to consider stepping into this moment with us.

Position Summary

The Technical Project Manager is a strategic, hands-on role central to Carey’s digital transformation and the creation of a connected campus. Working closely with senior leadership, vendors, and cross-functional teams, this role leads technology projects that improve efficiency, strengthen integration across systems (Classe365, MEWS, QuickBooks Online, and Goki), and enhance the experience of students, residents, and guests. The Technical Project Manager combines strategic leadership with a solid technical foundation—able to understand system architecture, interpret data flows, and guide technical partners—while leveraging external vendors for specialized development or infrastructure work. The focus is on translating organizational needs into well-executed solutions, ensuring smooth implementation, and embedding sustainable, repeatable processes across Carey’s three business units: the College, Residences, and Hotel. This role also supports day-to-day operational reliability—providing first-line troubleshooting for hardware and software issues, coordinating with vendors and customer support, and ensuring continuity across Carey’s digital and physical systems.
