Junior Coordinator, People & Culture

At The Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation, our mission is to create a world free from the fear of cancer. Cancer remains the number one cause of death for Canadians and our top priority is to accelerate cancer research and care.

Our role is to garner support for Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, one of the world’s leading cancer research and treatment centres, through philanthropy, fundraising events, and our world-renowned lottery program. The work we accomplish drives groundbreaking research, relentless innovation, and a deep commitment to improving the lives of cancer patients and their loved ones.

Now, we have an opportunity to blaze an even brighter future for everyone affected by cancer.

We will Carry The Fire for cancer patients everywhere, lighting the way forward through discovery, reigniting our commitment to transform cancer outcomes and ease the profound suffering cancer causes patients and their loved ones.

At the PMCF, every one of us carries the fire for someone else. Join us as we inspire a movement and help us achieve our vision to change the way we understand, diagnose, and treat cancer.

As our People & Culture team continues to grow, we’re excited to welcome another Junior Coordinator (Intern) to help us maintain a workplace where people can truly thrive. This is more than an administrative role - it’s a chance to take what you’ve learned and apply it in a real-world, experiential setting where you’ll continue to grow and develop your HR skillset.

You’ll work closely with the Associate Vice President (AVP), People & Culture and the People & Talent Consultant, gaining hands-on exposure to a wide range of HR functions including recruitment, onboarding, employee engagement, and internal communications. You’ll also have the opportunity to shadow experienced team members, collaborate on meaningful projects, and contribute to initiatives that directly impact the employee experience.

This role is ideal for someone who is proactive, detail oriented, curious, and responsive. You bring a strong work ethic, a commitment to learning, and a genuine interest in people. You’re someone who is ready to roll up your sleeves and dive into the work. You’ll be based in the office a minimum of three days per week, and sometimes more, to maximize exposure, learning opportunities, and relationship building across the organization.

If you're looking to grow your career in HR and want to be part of a collaborative, high performing team that values initiative, creativity, and continuous improvement, this is the role for you.
