Supporting and working alongside the members of the Canadian Armed Forces and actively preparing them to defend and serve our country could be your path to an extremely fulfilling career.

As part of a dynamic and dedicated team, as the Reconditioning Manager, you will have the opportunity to work with a very highly motivated and professional clientele who are eager to return to duty and improve their condition. Daily, you will manage reconditioning programs for Canadian Armed Forces members who may be affected with a medical condition and improve their functional abilities related to their emotional or physical limitations.

You will have expertise in designing gender‑specific programs and services that support reconditioning, prevent future injury, and increase operational readiness based on established employment standards.

Being a subject matter expert in your field, you will support your local team in providing training and professional development and provide overall management of the program and your employees. You will assist Health Promotion partners promoting healthy practices and injury prevention through initiatives such as educational programs, special events and other activities related to physical fitness.

Much like the military we so proudly support, we push the envelope of what’s possible. Working with us, you’ll have the opportunity to deliver programs and services in collaboration with a highly professional team of health services practitioners. Other stakeholders will be at your disposal to ensure a client’s successful return to duty.
