Job details

Situated just north of the U.S. border at the intersection of 3 Great Lakes, Sault Ste. Marie has something for everyone. Enjoy the sandy beaches, swimming, boating, camping, hiking, kayaking, or mountain biking along the coast of Lake Superior. Explore the waterfalls in the area too – and soak in the summer sunshine. In the winter, ski and snowboard at Searchmont Resort, a premiere mountain featuring 21 runs. Winter enthusiasts also enjoy skating at the outdoor rinks, sleigh rides, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling. Embrace the wild beauty of the area, and embrace adventure! The New York Times rated Sault Ste. Marie's ice caves as one of the top 52 places in the world to visit, and Agawa Canyon was similarly praised by National Geographic. Sault Ste. Marie is growing rapidly, and while over 73,000 people are proud to call the city home, it is frequently described as a beautiful blend of small-town values and big-city amenities. The best of both worlds. Sault Ste. Marie boasts a large retail sector, a Canadian Hockey League team, a fully-equipped hospital, an international airport, and a vibrant arts & cultural scene. Another compelling reason to consider Sault Ste. Marie is affordability! The average cost of a 3-bedroom detached home is under $250,000! Enjoy Canadian culture, while averting the escalating property prices in other parts of Ontario. Escape the commute too! Sault Ste. Marie ranked second in Ontario for shortest distance from home to work, according to a study from the Pembina Institute. This is the type of place where you can finish work and be at the cottage in 10 minutes for a sauna and swim. Escape the rat race!
