Human Resources Advisor; Senior

AccessHR is excited to partner with MMI Insurance for the recruitment of a full-time, permanent Human Resources Advisor.

For more than 60 years, MMI Insurance has provided trusted property and liability insurance solutions to homes, farms, churches, and businesses exclusively in Alberta. With a strong community focus and a member-first governance model, MMI Insurance is committed to personalized service, long-term relationships, and financial stability.

MMI Insurance combines deep local roots with modern insurance practices and a team of exceptional individuals who bring passion, expertise, and a genuine desire to serve clients and community to the workplace.

Rooted in the call to “bear one another’s burdens,” MMI Insurance reinvests in its members through initiatives such as a Compassion Fund that matches local church support for individuals facing unexpected crises, and a bi-annual donation program tied to congregational membership.

Reporting directly to the Chief Governance, Risk, and Compliance Officer, the Human Resources Advisor will serve as MMI Insurance’s lone, dedicated HR professional, providing comprehensive Human Resources support to a team of 45 employees including 10 managers.

This is a wonderful opportunity for a knowledgeable and confident Human Resources professional who enjoys breadth over depth, values variety, and thrives as a natural collaborator and trusted advisor. This organization “walks the talk” on values and truly emphasizes service excellence, professional development, and a team focus.

The successful candidate is resourceful and able to leverage relationships, insights, and expertise to deliver thoughtful, practical solutions. You have firsthand experience in all areas of HR, including talent management, recruitment and onboarding, total rewards, employee relations and workplace culture, performance management, learning and development, employment law, HR operations, and data management.

Additionally, this role offers the opportunity to influence improvements to HR practices, support steady organizational growth, have a seat at the leadership table, and work in a supportive environment that values both professional contribution and personal well-being.

Ultimately, we are seeking a friendly, adaptable, self-directed individual with ethics beyond reproach, outstanding judgment, and compassion for all.
