With the spring election fast approaching, Elections Alberta is looking to hire 20,000 Albertans.

The independent, non-partisan office of the Legislative Assembly is launching a major recruitment drive to fill roles across the province.

A wide range of positions are required, including Site Supervisors, Information Officers, Voting Officers, Record Clerks, Registration Officers, Ballot Box Clerks, and Site Monitors.

“Election officers are an essential part of the voting process,” said Deputy Chief Electoral Officer Pamela Renwick.

“This year we are preparing to offer in-person voting at over 300 advance voting, 600 mobile voting, and 1,200 Election Day voting locations.”

In the final 28-day stretch leading up to the May election, Elections Alberta will hold more than 1,700 training sessions for these new employees.

All residents of Alberta that are 16 years of age or older are welcome to apply. To learn more, visit the Elections Alberta Recruitment Page.
