GS ADMINISTRATION FINANCE CO-OP STUDENT (HYBRID)
About The Position
When it comes to health, we’re always looking for ways to push for better. It’s why we were founded in the first place. In 1957, our founder, pharmacist William Wilkinson, witnessed a mother sacrifice her health by forgoing her own medicine to pay for her sick daughter’s prescription. He knew there had to be a better way. So, he introduced North America’s first prepaid drug plan, and GreenShield was born as a not-for-profit with a mission to support better health for all Canadians. We aren’t just a health and benefits company. We’re the only not-for-profit social enterprise that brings worlds of coverage and care together, all in one place. We’re noble challengers, purposefully building a better way and we need the best people to help us create a more holistic approach that takes care of the mind and body. Our mission is to create better health for all Canadians, and we know that starts with our employees. Base Salary: $22.50 / hour Reporting to the Controller, GS Administration, the student will join the GreenShield Finance team in supporting the streamlining of financial reporting. This position provides excellent opportunities in learning core financial reporting and compliance, and get a broad understanding of the overall organization.
