Job Outlook

Technology in BC offers a significant opportunity for well-paying jobs now, and into the future. In 2018, BC’s tech sector included more than 10,000 companies employing over 123,000 professionals. Tech is now BC’s fourth-largest economic sector. There are and will continue to be many opportunities in tech as the economy expands and employees retire. Although Indigenous Peoples represent less than 1% of BC’s tech professionals, many companies are actively recruiting professionals who identify as First Nations, Inuit, or Metis.
