Post Office Assistant – Canada Post – Borden, Saskatchewan

Canada Post is looking for a dependable and customer-focused Post Office Assistant to join the team in Borden, Saskatchewan on a temporary, on-call basis. If you enjoy working directly with people, handling a variety of tasks, and being a reliable presence in your community, this role offers a meaningful way to serve your neighbours while building practical experience in a retail and postal services environment.

Day-to-day, you’ll be the face of Canada Post at the local post office counter — helping customers navigate postal products and services, processing mail, and resolving delivery concerns. It’s a role that blends customer service, light physical work, and administrative tasks, making each shift a little different from the last.

About the Role: Post Office Assistant

As a Post Office Assistant, you’ll provide front-line counter services to members of the public and local businesses. This includes selling postal products, handling cash transactions, sorting and distributing mail, and providing customers with the information and forms they need. Your ability to stay organized and keep things moving efficiently will be key to delivering reliable service to the community.

This is an on-call, temporary position, so flexibility is essential. You’ll be expected to step in as needed and maintain the same high standard of service each time. Safety awareness is also part of the role — you’ll be lifting mail containers of up to 50 lb and standing for extended periods, so being physically prepared is important. Canada Post values trust, respect, and integrity in everything its employees do.

Benefits and Salary

This position offers a wage of $20.54 per hour. Canada Post is committed to providing an equitable and inclusive workplace where employees are respected and supported. As part of a nationally recognized organization, working with Canada Post gives you access to a trusted brand with a long-standing commitment to its communities and workforce.
