Your Opportunity:

A vibrant, youthful, and multicultural city in northwestern Alberta, the City of Grande Prairie has friendly, laid-back small-town vibes, merged with the urban amenities you would expect -- arts and culture, sports, shopping, and a brand-new, state-of-the-art regional hospital and cancer center. There's something for everyone with numerous parks and playgrounds, walking trails, Western Canada's newest dinosaur museum, and hiking in the nearby northernmost tip of Alberta's Rocky Mountains. The diverse population of over 70,000, includes representation from more than 80 different cultural and ethnic groups! In addition to a competitive rate of pay, Alberta Health Services currently has a Remote Retention Allowance in place to an annual maximum of $3,000. This allowance is non-pensionable and is payable on an hourly basis for all hours paid at the basic rate of pay. If you want to practice med lab technology in a northern city with much to offer, this may be the opportunity for you!
