Vancity is Canada's largest community credit union, a financial services cooperative founded in 1946 and based in Vancouver, British Columbia. The institution operates 54 branches across British Columbia and serves over 543,000 members. Its co-operative model directs profits back to its members, and it is recognized as the largest private sector Living Wage Employer in Canada.
The credit union's operations are built around a core mission of social justice and environmental sustainability. Vancity actively works to break down barriers to banking access and provides specific programs for Indigenous communities. Its financial products, including mortgages and loans, are aligned with a corporate goal to become net-zero by 2040. The organization maintains these social commitments while pursuing strong financial performance.
Technology teams at Vancity would support this dual mandate of financial service delivery and social mission. The technical infrastructure enables the development of programs aimed at building financial resilience for members and communities. The environment is suited to professionals interested in applying technology within a values-driven financial institution that seeks to be a force for positive change.
