Excellence starts right here 

Bringing people together to make things better is what we do. Want to be part of shaping the future of quality and safety together? Of course you do. After all, you are smart, energetic and a little relentless. Just like us.

Healthcare Excellence Canada’s (HEC) greatest resource is our people. Our diverse team of dedicated professionals come from a range of disciplines and are spread across the country. But we all share a relentless focus on improving healthcare, with – and for – everyone in Canada.

We value and recognize our employees’ contributions through:

  • Competitive salaries and benefits
  • Retirement benefits (with no waiting period!)
  • Flexible work arrangements
  • Generous leave benefits
  • Employee and Family Assistance Program
  • Remote Work and Parking/Transit Allowance
  • Employee Wellness Allowance
    • We want to support employees in maintaining a healthy work-life balance and incorporating healthy/active living into their daily routine because we believe it is an essential part of both personal and corporate well-being. HEC reimburses staff for activities that support health and wellness and promote overall well-being.
  • Summer hours (Summer is short in Canada and we want to make the most of it!)
  • Holiday office closure to encourage staff to spend time with their families.
  • Training and professional development opportunities

Our culture

Excellence sits at the heart of our name for a reason. Our story is all about looking to the future, seeing what must be done and taking the steps necessary to get there. Expanding our organization to better meet the scale of the challenge we all face. Widening our circle to collaborate with diverse partners in all that we do. Bringing quality and safety under one roof. Finding bolder and more inclusive solutions. Our culture reflects this relentless drive towards excellence. What exactly does that look like? Well, that depends on the day. And we love it that way.

The healthcare system never stands still—so neither do we.
