Position Summary
The Labour Relations Consultant plays a strategic and operational role in supporting Optima Living’s growing unionized workforce across Alberta and British Columbia. Acting as a trusted advisor to operational leaders, Human Resources, and senior leadership, this role provides expert guidance on collective agreement administration, grievance management, investigations, discipline, accommodation, bargaining support, and labour relations best practices.
Reporting directly to the Director, Labour Relations, this position is instrumental in strengthening Optima Living’s internal labour relations capacity and supporting consistent, proactive labour relations practices across unionized communities.

Provide day-to-day labour relations guidance and support to operational leaders, Human Resources, and community leadership teams.
Interpret collective agreements and provide practical recommendations regarding compliance, operational risk, and employee relations matters.
Advise leaders on progressive discipline, attendance management, accommodations, investigations, and return-to-work processes within unionized environments.
Support leaders in managing complex employee and labour relations situations with professionalism and consistency.

Participate as an employer representative during bargaining and labour-management meetings as required.
Draft Letters of Understanding, settlement agreements, and labour relations correspondence.
Maintain bargaining history, precedent tracking, and collective agreement records.

Operational Partnership and Coaching

Build strong working relationships with community leaders and support operational decision-making through a labour relations lens.
Deliver coaching and education to leaders on collective agreement interpretation, documentation standards, investigations, respectful workplace practices, and grievance prevention.
Support onboarding and transition activities for newly unionized communities.
Promote consistent labour relations practices aligned with Optima Living’s values and operational objectives.

Compliance and Continuous Improvement

Monitor developments in labour legislation, arbitration decisions, and labour relations trends across Alberta and British Columbia.
Recommend process improvements and best practices to strengthen organizational labour relations capabilities.
Support the development of labour relations tools, templates, trackers, and reporting mechanisms.
Ensure confidentiality and professionalism in all labour relations matters.

Qualifications and Experience

Minimum 3–7 years of progressive labour relations experience in a unionized environment.
Demonstrated experience supporting collective bargaining, grievance management, and collective agreement administration.
Experience in healthcare, seniors living, continuing care, or multi-site operations is considered a strong asset.
