HR and Payroll Assistant

Where accuracy meets impact — help us keep projects, people, and payroll on track.

At Versys, our strength is our people. We deliver world-class service on North America’s most demanding energy projects because of the teams we build—teams that are detail-driven, dependable, and genuinely invested in supporting one another.

We’re looking for an HR & Payroll Assistant to join our Edmonton office. This full-time hybrid role comes with vacation time, health benefits, and Employee Share Ownership Plan (ESOP) opportunities—all within the stability of a growing company. It’s a chance to be the steady hand behind the scenes, making sure contracts, payroll, and compliance line up seamlessly. You’ll bring clarity and confidence to employees and contractors, while giving our leaders peace of mind that payroll runs right, every time.

This is more than administration—it’s about protecting financial integrity, improving employee experience, and building trust across the business.

What You’ll Do 

This role blends HR, payroll, and compliance into one:

Keep us organized: Ensure employee and contractor records are accurate, contracts are signed, and everything is where it should be.

Make payroll seamless: Support and back up our payroll process so it’s always accurate, on time, and aligned with agreements.

Protect the details: Double-check billing, expenses, and contracts so nothing slips through the cracks.

Be the go-to guide: Help employees and contractors with payroll or contract questions—clear, approachable, and professional.

Connect the dots: Work across HR, Payroll, and Finance so information flows smoothly and leaders have the data they need.

Be the go-to guide: Help employees and contractors with payroll or contract questions—clear, approachable, and professional.

• Comfort with HR/payroll systems (experience with BambooHR an asset, training provided).


• A service mindset: approachable, professional, and invested in doing things right.

At Versys, your work will keep people paid accurately, contracts upheld, and projects running smoothly. You’ll help protect our reputation for reliability while building relationships across teams, clients, and contractors.

We also believe in supporting the people who support us. Alongside a competitive wage, you’ll receive:

• Vacation time
