Alberni Valley Employment Centre

This website serves job seekers and employers in the Alberni-Clayoquot region of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The main office is in Port Alberni, with part-time offices in Ucluelet and Tofino. Services reach remote communities like Bamfield and Ahousaht through virtual and outreach delivery. The main office is on the traditional and unceded territories of the Tseshaht and Hupačasath First Nations, and the service area includes ten of the fourteen Nations of the Nuu-chah-nulth Tribal Council.

Posting a job is free for employers, but jobs appear only on this website and only within the Alberni-Clayoquot Regional District. The centre can collect resumes for employers who request it, holding them until pickup. In the Port Alberni centre, space is available for interviews or testing upon request. Note that the centre is not a recruiting agency and does not pre-screen applicants or endorse their qualifications.

Employment Counsellors help unemployed clients with career decisions, job search, or applying for government-funded services. Available services include group workshops, training supports, skills assessments, wage subsidy, self-employment services, and customized job placement. As of November 1, 2023, the Pay Transparency Act requires salary or wage information on all publicly advertised job postings.
