Employment Type: Full Time

Closing Date: Friday, November 6, 2026

Job Description

Reporting to the President and CEO, the Vice-President of Finance and Administration provides professional and responsive services relating to the administration of Finance, Facilities, Learning Technology and Registration portfolios of the college. Other responsibilities may be assigned based on the candidate’s background and experience. This VP is the Senior Business Officer (SBO) for the college.

As a member of the Senior Leadership Team, this position participates in decision making processes that establish overall college direction, operation, and performance.

Great Plains College is one of several colleges in the Saskatchewan Regional College system. This position reflects the size and scale of the operation and requires comfort working in a complex, decentralized environment. The college’s region includes more than 100,000 square kilometers which spans the southwest part of the province, with multiple campuses and program centers in various communities. The college serves approximately 4600 students annually throughout its service area.

This VP makes decisions that impact significant areas of the college within the parameters of organizational strategic directions, Board policy, the Regional Colleges Act and Regulations, and applicable government policies and directives. Relationships with the Ministries of Advanced Education, Immigration & Career Training and SaskBuilds and Procurement are essential as these are primary sources of funding for the College.

Direct reports of this position include managers and administrators in the areas of Facilities, Finance, Learning Technologies and Registration. The VP is a key member of the Senior Leadership Team. Members of this team work closely with the President to fulfill the strategic direction and provide operational leadership of the College.

Skills

A minimum of five years’ experience as a senior administrator, a university degree in a relevant discipline, and an accounting designation (Chartered Professional Accountant) are requirements for this position.

A proven track record of leadership and financial management including budgeting, forecasting, reporting, audit standards and policy. A strong understanding of facilities management, registration and learning technology strategy is also required. Candidates should possess some background and sector knowledge including the functioning of post-secondary institutions and colleges in particular. The ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams and manage multiple priorities along with experience in ERP & Student Information systems and financial software would be an asset.

As a colleague, you are a respected team leader and decision maker, trusted for your judgement and integrity and for being balanced, fair, and objective. You have exceptional interpersonal and communication skills and the full confidence of your colleagues to lead meaningful change in a complex, ever-changing environment. You are committed to collegiality, collaboration, and transparency and are a proven relationship builder with the skills necessary to advance Great Plains’ mission.

Key traits you embody include integrity, analytical thinking, innovation and a results-oriented mindset. You thrive in a dynamic environment and are passionate about helping the organization achieve financial sustainability and operational excellence.

Great Plains College is at the leading edge of Saskatchewan’s regional college system. The college is focused on meeting the needs of learners, employers and communities in western Saskatchewan. We are working to build stronger leaders, careers, partnerships and communities.

Our decentralized campuses are located in Kindersley, Swift Current and Warman with additional programming at locations in Biggar, Maple Creek and Martensville. Throughout our locations, we offer a number of post-secondary certificate, diploma and degree programs as well as university courses, safety training, Adult Basic Education and English language training.

The college strives to provide for the distinct needs of our service area by challenging everyone to continually build a responsive, innovative and results-orientated institution. Great Plains College was the first regional college in Saskatchewan to introduce a health and dental plan for its students and also proudly boasts one of the strongest scholarship programs in the province.
