Key Responsibilities
On-Demand Coaching & Support
Act as the visible, go-to resource in the office. Provide 1:1 and small-group troubleshooting, prompt refinement, and immediate assistance for employees stuck or unsure how to start with Copilot or Gemini or Claude.
Training & Enablement
Develop and deliver lightweight micro-training, host office hours, and share practical “how-to” guides that demonstrate effective ways to use AI for daily tasks.
Adoption Advocacy
Monitor tool usage, collect employee feedback, and identify common hurdles. Share internal success stories and practical use cases to organically grow adoption across the organization.
Task-Level Integration
Help individuals apply AI directly to the work in front of them (e.g., drafting emails, summarizing meetings, generating ideas) without the need for formal, large-scale business process mapping.
Responsible AI Guidance
Educate staff on the company’s AI governance policies, ensuring data privacy, risk mitigation, and safe guardrails are followed during daily AI use.
Qualifications & Skills
Experience
Previous background in corporate support, peer coaching, training, IT helpdesk, or technology adoption. We value aptitude, enthusiasm, and a track record of helping others over a strict number of years in enablement.
AI Literacy
Strong practical familiarity with generative AI tools—specifically Microsoft Copilot and Gemini and Claude —including prompt engineering basics and a clear understanding of their corporate capabilities and limitations.
Communication
Exceptional interpersonal skills with the ability to translate technical AI concepts into accessible, actionable advice for non-technical employees.
Problem Solving
A practical, solution-oriented mindset focused on helping users overcome immediate roadblocks and craft better prompts to get their desired outputs.
Empathy & Patience
A high degree of emotional intelligence to comfortably guide employees who have varying levels of tech-savviness or potential hesitations about adopting AI tools.
As one of Canada’s largest defined benefit pension plans, our people-first culture is at its best when our workforce reflects the communities where we live and work — and the members we proudly serve.
From hire to retire, we are an equal opportunity employer committed to an inclusive, barrier-free recruitment and selection process that extends all the way through your employee experience. This sense of belonging and connection is cultivated up, down and across our global organization thanks to our vast network of Employee Resource Groups with executive leader sponsorship, our Purpose@Work committee and employee recognition programs.
