The Board of Directors for the British Columbia School Trustees Association (BCSTA) is pleased to announce that Trevor Davies has been selected as its incoming CEO.

Davies, currently serving as the Secretary-Treasurer of CUPE BC, has been instrumental in managing the Union’s administrative and financial operations. His role on the Board of Directors for Pacific Blue Cross, Chair of their Investment and Finance Committee, and his experience as a trustee for the BC Municipal Pension Plan have further highlighted his expertise and commitment to member-driven organizations across BC. Davies is a relational leader, and his strong advocacy for public services, belief in the strength of community and partner relations and commitment to good governance will ensure that BCSTA continues to build on its solid relationships across the province and sector.

During the CEO selection process, Davies’ extensive experience representing members across multiple sectors, including K-12, post-secondary, municipalities, and community social services stood out. His connections and ability to work with all levels of government adds to the strength of his knowledge, ensuring strong relationships with all partners. This diverse experience will be valuable in supporting BCSTA, member boards and advocacy efforts.

“The Board is thrilled to welcome Trevor as our incoming CEO. His wealth of experience with province-wide organizations and support of their membership and goals will undoubtedly contribute to the continued success of BCSTA and its member boards. Throughout this process, it was evident that Trevor cares deeply about the members represented by his organizations and is dedicated to utilizing his new role as CEO to improve outcomes for BC students,” said Carolyn Broady, President of the Board of Directors for the BCSTA. “The Board is grateful for the continued commitment of our current CEO, Suzanne Hoffman, who will stay with the organization until December. Her guidance and leadership will ensure a seamless transition between the two CEOs, providing stability and continuity for our organization,” continued Broady.

Davies will start in his new role as incoming CEO in late October.
