Full job description
At the HR Advantage, we do things a little differently than your average consulting firm.

We specialize in both human resources and health and safety because we believe both are essential to creating strong, sustainable workplaces. Our team works with clients across construction, manufacturing, agriculture, non-profit, and childcare sectors, providing practical support through ongoing retainers and project-based work.

We’re searching for a full-time Human Resources Consultant to join our growing team. In this role, you’ll help businesses build strong, compliant, and people-focused systems that support growth, safety, and culture. Our Consultants are trusted partners who thrive in dynamic environments and deliver practical, high-quality solutions that make a difference for our clients and their teams.

While HR Advantage is based in Fort Macleod, Alberta, we recognize the value of flexibility and the diverse talent located across Alberta. This position is fully remote and can be based anywhere in Southern Alberta, with occasional travel (1-3 Days/Month) to client sites as needed.

What You’ll Do

As an HR Consultant at HR Advantage, you’ll partner directly with clients to design, build, and implement practical HR and health and safety systems that align with both best practices and legislative requirements. Many of our clients are growing organizations that don’t yet have established programs in place, so you’ll have the opportunity to create foundational systems that truly make an impact.

You’ll work independently and collaboratively to deliver a range of services, including:

Developing and implementing HR and health and safety policies, programs, and procedures tailored to client needs
Supporting clients through COR audits, gap analyses, and system development to meet audit standards and industry best practice
Conducting workplace investigations, managing employee relations issues, and providing professional HR guidance to client leaders
Assisting with incident management, hazard assessments, and the development of corrective actions and safe work practices
Supporting recruitment, onboarding, and performance management processes
Providing training and guidance to supervisors and employees on HR and H&S topics
Contributing to the design of client-specific tools, such as handbooks, forms, and templates that strengthen compliance and culture
Payroll or HR system implementation, including ongoing processing of payroll and implementing system improvements
What You’ll Bring

You’ll bring experience in at least one of human resources or health and safety and a genuine interest in growing your expertise across both areas. Our consultants often work fluidly between disciplines, supporting clients with everything from compliance and culture to safety systems and employee relations.

Qualifications/Experience

3 to 5 years of experience within human resources or health and safety, either as a senior-level Coordinator, Advisor, Business Partner, or Consultant
Post-secondary education in a related field (business administration, human resources, psychology, health and safety, etc.)
Designation in a related field, such as Chartered Professional in Human Resources (CPHR), Payroll Compliance Practitioner (PCP), or Canadian Registered Safety Professional (CRSP) is considered a strong asset
Exposure to payroll administration is a significant asset
Working knowledge of HRIS and payroll systems such as ADP, Dayforce, QuickBooks Online, or BambooHR
Experience managing multiple, dynamic projects with shifting priorities
Strong understanding of Alberta and/or British Columbia employment and occupational health and safety legislation
