<p>If you already live on Vancouver Island, you know how great it is. And perhaps you don’t live there quite yet, but you have been looking for your chance to make the move? Well this is a full-time IT administration position based with a well-established company in Victoria, BC. Is this the chance you’ve been waiting for? </p><p><br></p><p>This is a full-time career opportunity with a long-standing industrial company that is part of a bigger company with several global offices.

And as you can imagine, the main reason to have a person physically stationed in Victoria is to provide a high-level of personal service to the users there (rather than manage everything remotely from Vancouver).
