Our client operates in Canada. The company takes all reasonable steps to limit the number of positions in Quebec that require knowledge of a language other than French, and only requires it when necessary and its existing bilingual employees are unable to perform these duties. Based on an assessment conducted by our client, it has been determined that this position requires candidates to be fluent in English (both spoken and written). In particular, this position will require the employee to interact with centralized internal departments (e.g., Operations / HR / Finance / Legal / Contracts / Sales) that support the organization in Canada and that do not speak French.

Summary
Location: Quebec City or Montreal (Hybrid model, occasional on-site presence)

Position Type: Contract (35 hours / week)

Start Date: September 2026

Duration: Until March 31, 2027 (Strong likelihood of extension)
