What’s the role?
Your colleagues all know you as the problem-solver: the person they go to when they need advice. You work well under pressure and you thrive in a team environment. You’re accountable and relied upon for mitigating difficult situations, often leading by example.

You will be required to act with discretion when handling sensitive information and be expected to balance inquiries coming in through our ticketing system, phone lines and providing in person consultation for our more complex, high-touch processes. You will be counted on to provide support to employees navigating the many events related to the employee lifecycle while maintaining an excellent level of customer support and collaborating with your HR colleagues in the centres of excellence. Additionally, you will be responsible for identifying trends in employee inquiries and working with our operations team to document changes and provide suggestions for process improvement.
