Position Overview
Reporting to the Senior Executive Support & Projects Coordinator, the HR Generalist is the people operations backbone of Selections Career Support Services (SCSS). This is a hands-on, sole-charge HR role responsible for the full employee lifecycle across three locations. From recruitment through offboarding, with day-to-day ownership of benefits, WCB, performance, training, and compliance.
The HR Generalist works closely with leaders and frontline staff who support Albertans with disabilities and barriers to employment. That mission shapes how SCSS works internally: we hold ourselves to the same standards of inclusion, accessibility, and dignity that we advocate for in the community and labour market.
This role suits someone who is genuinely energized by non-profit work, comfortable being the only HR practitioner in the room, and able to balance compliance rigor with the pragmatism a resource-conscious environment demands.

· Professional HR designation (e.g., CPHR) or progress toward certification is an asset
· Demonstrated commitment to disability inclusion, accessibility, and employment equity for marginalized populations
· Valid Class 5 Alberta Driver’s License and access to a reliable vehicle.
Key Responsibilities
· Facilitate full-cycle recruitment, onboarding, and offboarding while ensuring consistency and a positive employee experience
· Serve as a first point of contact for supervisors and employees on policy, process, and day-to-day people questions

· Coordinate organization-wide training and professional development
· Administer employee benefits and respond to benefit-related inquiries

· Conduct exit interviews and analyze feedback
· Track HR metrics (turn over, recruitment, training participation)
· Perform audits, grant writing, reporting, and safety programming as requested
· Deliver various HR reports as requested by management (e.g., employee engagement, turnover)
