Description

Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities is a national charity committed to helping kids of all abilities in communities across Canada participate in sport, recreation and play.

At Jumpstart, we understand that for kids, the opportunity to play is about much more than getting active. Sport and being part of a team foster self-esteem and teach valuable life skills like courage, confidence, and teamwork.

The vision of Jumpstart is simple:
a Canada where all kids have a chance to fulfill their dreams.

Canadian Tire Corporation is proud to fund 100% of Jumpstart's general and administrative costs, allowing donations to go directly to helping kids.

Canadian Tire we work flexibly embracing 'Hybrid' whereby individuals utilize a combination of working at a CTC campus and or virtually in service of outcomes.

Determined by managers, decisions around work location will be made based on business and team needs and grounded in a desire to support individual well-being and personal needs.

Our goal is to empower teams and individuals to make the right decisions for them, and we expect that to look different for everyone.
