HR Assistant
Join a dynamic HR team in an entry-level, full-time, on-site role with growth potential, employee benefits, and a meaningful impact in the food industry.
If you’re searching for an HR role that makes a difference, the HR Assistant position offers a full-time workweek with a focus on employee relations and hiring support. Compensation is competitive and includes a $60 monthly cell reimbursement, health and dental insurance post-probation, and a 30% employee discount. It’s a great entry-level opportunity for detail-oriented, organized candidates who value reliability and confidentiality.
Daily Life and Job Responsibilities
The HR Assistant primarily manages confidential documentation, ensures up-to-date filing, and checks employee paperwork. You’ll be involved in pre-screening resumes, drafting offer letters and contracts, and onboarding new team members. Maintaining CNESST standards, regularly updating job postings, and collaborating with the payroll team is also a core part of the job. Working closely with the department director ensures exposure to decision-making, compliance, and recruitment processes. Communication in both French and English is frequently required throughout your tasks.
Benefits and Pros
One of the best aspects of this role is the combination of hands-on experience and professional mentorship. The employee discount and health coverage are attractive for those who value comprehensive benefits. Being part of a mission-driven company in the local food industry adds meaning to the day-to-day work. The team culture is collaborative, and there are clear opportunities to learn new skills, especially for those passionate about HR. The regular work schedule enables work-life balance.
Výzvy a nevýhody
The role can be administrative-intensive and occasionally repetitive, so it suits someone who enjoys routine tasks. Since the salary is to be determined, there is a lack of upfront transparency about compensation. As a junior role, career growth may depend on your ability to actively participate and seek responsibilities. Working on-site might not appeal to those seeking remote flexibility. High standards around detail and organization could be a challenge for some.
Konečný verdikt
The HR Assistant position is ideal for newcomers to HR who want to combine purpose, perks, and professional growth. If you are detail-oriented, reliable, and thrive in dynamic environments, this entry-level opportunity promises strong mentorship and a positive workplace culture. It’s worth applying if you want to develop your HR skills and grow within a vibrant team.
