Since 2001, Rugged Edge Holdings (REH) has provided full-service support and technical services to the mining and mineral exploration sectors across Canada. Our work has taken us throughout British Columbia, Yukon, Saskatchewan and the Northwest Territories, supporting projects in challenging and remote environments.

About the Role

Rugged Edge Holdings is looking for an organized, motivated and people-focused HR & Safety Administrator to join our team in Smithers.

Working closely with the HR & Safety Manager, this position provides hands-on support across human resources, employee onboarding, training coordination, occupational health and safety administration, and workforce development. The HR & Safety Administrator plays an important role in making sure employees are properly onboarded, trained, qualified and prepared to safely support REH's operations.

This is an excellent chance for an experienced administrator looking to move into HR and safety, an early-career HR or OHS professional looking to build practical experience, or someone with resource-sector administrative experience who wants to broaden their career.

You don't necessarily need to have done this exact job before. We're looking for someone with strong administrative fundamentals, good judgment, an interest in people and workplace safety, and the ability to learn and grow within the role.

- Prepare, organize and maintain employee documentation and personnel records.
- Assist with recruitment, onboarding documentation and other HR administrative processes.

Health & Safety Administration





- Provide administrative support for REH's occupational health and safety programs.
- Maintain accurate safety, training and compliance records.
- Assist with employee orientations, toolbox talks, safety meetings and training sessions.
- Support the preparation and distribution of safety communications and documentation.
- Assist with tracking corrective actions, safety documentation and other compliance requirements.
- Work with the HR & Safety Manager and operational leaders to continually improve REH's safety systems and processes.

Administration & Coordination

- Maintain organized and accurate electronic and hard-copy records.
- Prepare reports, spreadsheets, correspondence and other documentation.
- Coordinate information between employees, supervisors, operations and the HR & Safety Manager.
- Help identify opportunities to simplify and improve administrative, HR, training and safety processes.
- Provide additional administrative support as required in a dynamic operational environment.

What We're Looking For

The successful candidate will bring a combination of administrative ability, professionalism, initiative and an interest in developing their HR and safety knowledge.

Qualifications and attributes that would help you succeed include:

- Previous experience in administration, HR, occupational health and safety, training coordination or a related role.
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to manage multiple priorities, deadlines and follow-up requirements.
- Strong computer skills, including Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook.
- Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with employees, supervisors and management.
- Sound judgment and the ability to handle confidential information professionally.
- A practical,



solutions-focused approach and willingness to learn.
- Experience working in mining, exploration, drilling, forestry, construction or another industrial environment is an asset.
- Experience with DATS or similar workforce, training or safety-management systems is an asset.
- Post-secondary education in Human Resources, Occupational Health & Safety, Business Administration or a related discipline is an asset.

We recognize that great candidates don't always check every box. If your background is in administration, HR, safety or resource-sector operations and you're interested in developing your skills in the other areas, we'd still like to hear from you.
