computer software design manager

The BC Muslim Association · Surrey, BC · $18.25 hourly

Verdict

This posting shows strong legitimacy signals: The BC Muslim Association is a verified real non-profit (incorporated 1966) with an official website, confirmed job listings section, and a business-domain email address. However, the salary of $18.25/hour for a "Computer Software Design Manager" role is significantly below market for that NOC classification, and the location mismatch (posting claims Surrey but employer head office is Richmond, though Surrey branches do exist) introduces minor uncertainty. The seasonal, student-focused nature with flexible hours and low experience requirement (7 months) suggests this may be a junior/summer position rather than a true management role, which partially explains the low salary. Overall, the posting is legitimate but has modest red flags around salary positioning.

Salary significantly below market for NOC role+18
$18.25/hour is well below typical compensation for Computer and Information Systems Managers (NOC 20012), though the seasonal, student-focused nature with minimal experience requirement (7 months) suggests this is a junior/summer position rather than a true management role.
Location mismatch between posting and employer head office+12
Posting claims Surrey location, but employer head office is in Richmond, BC. However, BCMA does operate Surrey branches, so this is a minor discrepancy rather than a red flag.
Seasonal student position with flexible hours-8
The posting explicitly targets students with flexible hours and seasonal term, which legitimately explains the lower salary and junior positioning despite the manager title.
Business-domain email address-10
Contact email summer.student.job@thebcma.com uses the employer's own domain (@thebcma.com), indicating legitimate organizational infrastructure.
Website reachable and business match confirmed-10
Website is reachable with high confidence (0.95) and business name matches the posting employer exactly.
Verified real employer with official website-20
The BC Muslim Association is a substantive non-profit incorporated in 1966 with confirmed website thebcma.com, multiple locations, and documented job postings section.
