A dynamic, collegial and lifestyle oriented 32 person group is looking to add additional team members, and encourage both full time and part time applicants.
We work under an APP contract for emergency and a MOCAP contract for our Trauma Team Leader (TTL) program, working 14 shifts a month between the two programs (if you are full time). This leaves plenty of time to take advantage of the outdoor wonderland that surrounds Kamloops. Enjoy skiing at Sun Peaks or the back country, mountain biking year round, beautiful lakes, golf courses and world class sports facilities in the Tournament Capital Centre. And you instantly have 32 friends to do these activities with!
