What You'll Be Doing

Are you someone who thrives on organization, finds satisfaction in well-run systems, and loves supporting people behind the scenes? We’re looking for an HR Coordinator who brings both precision and heart to their work.

You’ll be a key player on our HR team, balancing compliance and process with a strong focus on people-first service. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to grow their HR career while working for a purpose-driven organization.

In this role, you’ll take ownership of a wide range of tasks, from onboarding new team members and maintaining our HR systems, to coordinating health & safety initiatives and supporting employee well-being through benefit and compliance programs.

If you like variety, value purpose-driven work, and want to join a collaborative and supportive team, we’d love to hear from you.

We're looking for someone who’s organized, curious, and reliable—with a strong sense of follow-through and a willingness to pitch in wherever needed.

You’re a great fit if you have:

· Post-secondary education in Human Resources or equivalent work experience

· Prior experience in administrative work (not necessarily HR specific)

· Familiarity with employment standards or labour legislation

· Some knowledge of Occupational Health & Safety (OHS) practices and a willingness to learn

· Strong organizational skills and attention to detail

· Comfort with shifting priorities and evolving work environments

· A collaborative, service-focused mindset and excellent communication skills

Bonus if you’re a systems thinker, love documentation, or find joy in spreadsheets and workflows.

Working Conditions:

Extended periods working in an office environment (sitting/standing)

You’ll be hands-on with a wide variety of HR work that keeps things running smoothly and people feeling supported. Your day-to-day will include:

· Completing HR admin tasks like data entry, document prep, and keeping employee records organized and accurate

· Supporting onboarding, offboarding, and responding to day-to-day employee questions with clarity and care

· Helping maintain internal policies, templates, and processes to ensure compliance and consistency

· Coordinating employee benefits and supporting Workers’ Compensation claims

· Leading the admin side of our OHS program—incident tracking, safety audits, training coordination, and serving on the JOHSC

· Jumping into HR projects and process improvements with a collaborative, creative and detail-focused mindset

· Keeping timelines and deliverables on track while adapting to shifting priorities

· Supporting a positive workplace culture by pitching in where needed and handling sensitive information with professionalism
