Please discuss your total compensation expectations in further detail with SWIM.

Where:
Remote or Hybrid. This multi-national company is headquartered in Canada. The contractor can work remotely from their home office, perhaps with occasional business trips in future. Should the successful contractor live within a 1 hour or less driving distance from the Downtown Vancouver or Downtown Toronto corporate offices, it would be preferred that they work from a corporate office a couple days/week.

This search is moving very quickly! Swim Recruiting will be conducting initial interviews and presenting the profiles of short-listed candidates directly to the hiring manager for review. Please hit “APPLY” to send us your resume (preferably in MS Word format as it works best with SWIM’s internal systems, but PDF is also fine). Thank you!
