This role is based at a corporate office in Surrey, working on an HR team of 2 (and a broader Canadian HR team of around 25).

What- the Role:
On behalf of our client, SWIM is looking for a new Human Resources Generalist for a 2-to-3 month contract (with chance for extensions into 2025). This is a well-rounded generalist role involving employee relations (including investigations), leave management, HR policy creation and revision, project coordination and communication for new and existing HR programs (related to L&D, sales training, onboarding/orientation), etc.
Please note the preference is for the new consultant to work 5 days/40 hours a week, but we are possibly open to someone very qualified who only wants to work 4 days a week. Work hours are typically 8am to 4:30pm (including 30 min lunch break), but there is flexibility as needed.

Who- the Candidate:
We are seeking candidates with a minimum of 5 years’ progressive and diverse HR experience, including experience in employee relations and HR policies & programs. Candidates must have solid knowledge of BC and Canadian employment law and standards. Experience in a B2B industrial company is preferred, but not required, as is experience with an ISO-compliant organization. Hands-on experience using an HRIS is required, experience using an LMS is an asset.  Qualified candidates for this role will be detail-oriented, adaptable, responsive, friendly, and able to manage competing priorities. 

How Much:
Hourly consulting rate commensurate with HR work experience, education/credentials, and skills- the range is quite wide at $28 to $41. Please discuss your hourly rate expectations in more detail with SWIM.  

Where:
Located in Surrey, accessible by transit (15 to 20 min walk from a Skytrain station) and there is free parking available. This is a HYBRID position- please discuss further with SWIM.
