Work environment

Human Resources Administrators are employed at all CAF bases in Canada, on ships, and overseas, supporting the Royal Canadian Navy, Canadian Army, or Royal Canadian Air Force. They may also serve in special operation units, medical organizations, recruiting offices, schools, reserve units, NATO / UN positions, and other specialized units across the CAF. Opportunities also exist with embassies where Canada has a military attaché.

If you join the Regular Force, after training, you will be assigned to your first base with potential relocations. Reserve Force members serve part-time at a specific unit, usually working one night per week and some weekends, with options for full-time employment. They do not typically relocate but can volunteer to do so or deploy on missions.

Human Resources Administrators then attend the Canadian Forces Logistics Training Centre in Borden for 90 days of occupational training, covering topics like personnel record management, pay processing, leave management, and more. Opportunities for advanced training in specialized areas are available as career progresses.

Part-time options

This role is available for part-time employment with the Primary Reserve across Canada. Reserve members serve part-time, typically in their community, and may volunteer for deployments or relocations. They are paid a percentage of Regular Force pay, with benefits and pension contributions.
