Northern Development Initiative Trust is looking for a new CEO.
The Board of Directors announced today (Thursday) Joel McKay submitted his resignation, ending an eight-year run in the role.
During his tenure, McKay more than doubled the Trusts assets under management to exceed $600 million, introduced the State of the North Economic Report in 2018 – the first report of its kind to provide a regional economic snapshot of Northern B.C among other accomplishments.
McKay has accepted the City Manager position at the City of Quesnel.
He will remain with Northern Development until the end of 2024. The recruitment process for a new CEO is in place and will be announced in the coming months.
“It’s been an honour and a privilege to work for the Trust these past 12 years. The Trust gave me the opportunity to move to Northern B.C., put down roots and start a family. It’s been an incredible adventure. While I’m saddened to depart this organization, I’m extremely proud of the work we’ve accomplished here together. The Trust has an excellent team, Board, and regional advisors. I want to thank each one of them for their support and passion. Now, onto the next adventure.”
