What Does a vCIO Actually Do? Most companies don't have a dedicated Chief Information Officer, and that's exactly where you come in. As a vCIO at Active Co, a New Charter Technologies Company, you become the strategic technology partner for a portfolio of clients who rely on you to help them think bigger, plan smarter, and use technology as a competitive advantage.

You're not just managing accounts; you're embedded in your clients' businesses, understanding their goals, anticipating their needs, and guiding them forward. This is a role for someone who genuinely loves building relationships, thinks strategically, and gets energized by turning complex challenges into clear, actionable plans. If you find yourself most fulfilled when a client says "I don't know what I'd do without you," this might be exactly where you belong.

Active Co, a New Charter Technologies Company, is looking for a full‑time vCIO based in Port Coquitlam, BC. You'll work closely with internal teams, leadership, and clients daily, with local travel to client sites expected as a regular part of the role. The position offers a base salary of CAD $80,000 to $100,000 depending on experience and qualifications.

• Overseeing and managing Professional Services projects from scoping through delivery
• Handling service escalations with professionalism and urgency
• Maintaining accurate client playbooks, forecasts, and account plans
• Onboarding new clients and ensuring a smooth, confident transition into our ecosystem
• Communicating consistently with internal teams on current and upcoming client initiatives

• Managing a healthy portfolio of client accounts with strong revenue retention
• Maintaining gross margin targets across your client base
• Contributing consistently to the team's net revenue growth goals
• Keeping voluntary client attrition low and satisfaction high
• Completing quarterly priorities and personal learning objectives on time

• Experience in IT services, managed services, or technology consulting
• An MBA or equivalent experience, with a genuine passion for leveraging business strategy to drive technology outcomes for clients
• A natural relationship-builder who earns trust quickly and maintains it long-term
• Able to translate complex technical concepts into clear, business-focused conversations

• Holds themselves to a high standard and takes pride in delivering great outcomes

• Customer-focused with exceptional interpersonal skills
• Strong organizational, time management, and planning abilities

You will receive:
