Toronto

This is a hybrid position based out of North York @ 243 Consumers Rd - You will work 4 days a week in office and 1 day a week remote Lifemark Health Group (LHG) is a market leader in customized healthcare solutions. With over 20 years of service excellence, LHG is one of the largest, most trusted, and most comprehensive providers in Canada. As a national healthcare company, LHG employs over 5,000 highly trained clinicians, medical experts, and team members in almost 400 locations coast-to-coast and continues to grow both organically as well as through acquisitions.
