About the Opportunity

This short-term contract plays a critical role in supporting a growing non-profit organization focused on improving recycling systems across Canada. You will support a Corporate Affairs team that is operating lean while managing a high volume of new household and community recycling data tied directly to a public-facing recycling app. Accuracy, consistency, and discretion are essential, as the information you enter will be visible to communities and municipalities.

In this role, you will work closely with internal teams and external municipal partners to ensure recycling data is clean, reliable, and ready for public use. This is not entry-level data entry. It is a time-sensitive opportunity for someone who thrives in detail-heavy work and takes pride in producing high-quality results under pressure. Strong performers may be considered for future contract, full-time, or summer intern opportunities starting in June.

What’s In It for You

You will contribute to meaningful environmental initiatives that directly impact households and communities. This role offers fully remote work with structured daytime hours, fast interview turnaround, and the chance to make a strong impression with an organization in growth mode. It is an ideal opportunity for experienced data professionals who enjoy focused, high-impact projects.

Your Responsibilities

• You’ll accurately input household and community recycling data into an internal database and public-facing app.
• You’ll review, verify, and audit large data sets to ensure accuracy and integrity.
• You’ll identify, correct, and flag errors, discrepancies, or missing information.
• You’ll generate basic reports and simple maps to support recycling program planning.
• You’ll collaborate with field teams and municipal departments to validate information.
• You’ll handle sensitive data with professionalism, confidentiality, and discretion.

Skills and Qualifications

• 2+ years of hands-on data entry or data-focused administrative experience.
• Proven success with high-volume, high-accuracy data entry.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to catch errors others may miss.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel, including filtering, sorting, and basic formulas.
• Experience working with databases or document management systems.
• Ability to work independently in a fast-paced, remote environment.
• Experience with GIS tools, municipal data, or regulated environments is considered an asset.
