Call for Board Members

BBOT-AGM June 13 2024

Call for Board Members
Burnaby Board of Trade
Application Deadline: April 17 at Midnight

 

The Burnaby Board of Trade is seeking dynamic, engaged, and community-minded business leaders to join our Board of Directors — and there’s never been a more exciting time to get involved.

With new leadership at the helm and a bold strategic refresh underway, the BBOT is leaning into its role as a catalyst for growth, connection, and innovation. Our Board is instrumental in this work — guiding strategy, driving impact, and building a stronger business community for today and tomorrow.
We’re looking for passionate champions of our organization—leaders who want to roll up their sleeves, be deeply involved, and act as true ambassadors of the BBOT. We are especially interested in candidates from mid-sized businesses (11–50 employees) in retail, trade, health sciences, or biotech — industries critical to Burnaby’s continued growth and evolution.

 

Board Members:

  • Serve as strategic stewards of the organization—guiding direction, ensuring strong governance, and keeping member interests front and center
  • Commit to attending six board meetings per year and are encouraged to participate in committee work and BBOT events
  • Bring thoughtful insight to decision-making and contribute meaningfully to the organization
  • Understand our mission, strategy, and governance practices and are committed to supporting them
  • Act with integrity, care, and diligence—always in the best interest of the BBOT and its members
  • This is a governance board with impact—a place for leaders who want to think big, engage deeply, and help move Burnaby forward. We want to hear from you if you’re ready to make a difference.

To submit your expression of interest, please email angie@bbot.ca by midnight on April 17 with the following:

  • A copy of your CV
  • A link to your LinkedIn profile

Please note that applicants must be BBOT members in good standing to be eligible for consideration.

We thank all applicants for their interest. Let’s build the future of Burnaby together.
