Led by the Chief Financial Officer, the Finance & Technology department provides a variety of services including budget and financial services, arts development, and information technology and geographic information services (GIS).
Financial Services
Financial Services provides financial reporting and internal controls, and provides guidance for the overall financial stability of the organization. This division is in charge of budgeting, the five year financial plan, payroll, accounts payable, accounts receivable, banking, grants administration, financial reporting and financial statements, contracts, investing, and safeguarding financial assets. The division also provides corporate-wide administrative services such as printing and internal interoffice mail.
Information Technology & GIS
The primary goal for Information Technology & GIS Services is to deliver efficient and cost-effective technology solutions that enable the CRD to meet its business and corporate objectives. The IT & GIS division accomplishes this through the provision of computer support services to all CRD staff located in 24 operating locations throughout the capital region.
Arts & Culture
The Arts & Culture division manages three services: the Arts and Culture Support Service, the Royal Theatre Service, and the McPherson Playhouse Service. This division works with the Arts Commission, the Arts Advisory Council, and the Royal and McPherson Theatres Services Advisory Committee to foster and promote the arts in the region. By supporting the arts, the CRD contributes to the development of a healthy, livable and vibrant community.
