Exciting Career Opportunities in the Spectacular Glory of Northern B.C.

From the rugged shores of the Queen Charlotte Islands in the west to the snow-capped peak of Mt. Robson in the east, Northern Health offers exciting opportunities to further your career as a healthcare professional. This vast region covers the northern two-thirds of B.C. Northern Health serves a regional population of approximately 300,000 people through 50 hospitals, health centres and complex care facilities as well as a full range of community programs. Northern Health communities offer affordable housing and natural splendor that support a balanced lifestyle.

Northern Health currently has opportunities in the following locations: 

Quesnel (Project NH200606-DACSQ)

Quesnel, B.C. is one of Central Interior’s oldest cities, and home to the world’s largest gold pan. Nestled on the banks of the Fraser and Quesnel rivers, Quesnel is the commercial centre of the North Cariboo. The major industries include forestry, agriculture, mining and tourism.

Smithers (Project NH200606-DONS)

Smithers, B.C. is located in the picturesque Bulkley Valley, surrounded by three mountain ranges that provide a backdrop for the town’s alpine setting. The main industries include forestry, tourism, transportation and agriculture.

Terrace (Project NH200606-DONST)

The thriving community of Terrace, B.C. is northern living at its best. Snow-capped mountains and pristine, glacier-fed rivers, lakes and streams all add to the beauty of this community.  Anglers come to Terrace to challenge the steelhead and spring salmon of the Skeena River. The main industries in Terrace are communications, transportation and resource product trade.
