THE ROLE

Our recreation assistants are the friendly faces of our organization. They are the first person to welcome our members when they enter our facilities and often the link between them and other sectors of the PSP. You will be responsible for welcoming and directing all members who arrive, using the PSP software to process registrations and payments, while ensuring the safety of these individuals and the facilities. This role involves daily opportunities and challenges. Can you meet the challenge? Every day, members will have questions or problems, and you will need to show initiative to address or respond to them. This position is an ideal introduction to the PSP and offers potential for growth and development. Our recreation assistants are the first line of PSP relations with members and truly meet the needs of these individuals and their families.
