Bilingual Customer Service Representative

BILINGUAL CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE (HYBRID)

Toronto, Canada

WHO WE ARE

GreenShield is a proudly Canadian, national non-profit health care and insurance organization, driven by our mission of Better Health for All. We believe health care is a right, not a privilege, and we are committed to improving health outcomes, advancing health equity, and building a future where every Canadian can reach their full health and well-being potential.

Through our unique integrated payer-provider ("payvider") model, we offer insurance, administer benefits, and pay claims as a ‘payer’ while offering health care services such as mental health, pharmacy, telemedicine, and chronic disease management as a ‘provider’.  As a non-profit social enterprise without shareholders, we reinvest our excess earnings to directly support underserved communities. Through GreenShield Cares, we positively impacted the health and well-being of over one million Canadians between 2020 and 2025.  What’s driving us now is the commitment to measurably impact an additional three million Canadians by 2030 – across mental health, essential medicines, and chronic disease management – through scalable initiatives that deliver meaningful change in pursuit of our mission of Better Health for All.  

At GreenShield, our culture is where purpose meets passion and performance. Our teams work as one to deliver meaningful, measurable impact for the people and communities we serve.

THE ROLE IN A NUTSHELL

Base Salary:  CAD $28.57 - 30.62

WORK ARRANGEMENT  On-site, transitioning to Hybrid (2 days per week in office) after training

Day in the Life (Realistic Preview)

 This role is fast-paced and demanding. Calls come one after another, and many involve members who are frustrated, stressed, or navigating real health and financial concerns. You’ll need to stay focused, think clearly, and communicate with confidence; often while managing multiple systems and delivering answers in real time. There is pressure, and some days will feel heavy.

But this work matters. In those same moments, you’re often the person who brings clarity, reassurance, and real solutions when people need it most. If you can stay grounded under pressure and take ownership of each call, you’ll have a direct impact; helping people move forward with confidence during situations that genuinely affect their lives.
At GreenShield, we’re creating better health for all Canadians. As a Contact Centre Services Representative (Customer Service Representative), you play a vital role in delivering on that mission. You are often the first point of connection for members, providers, and clients—providing respectful, knowledgeable, and reliable service through phone, email, and chat channels.

This role operates within a high-volume, performance-focused contact centre where quality, accuracy, and empathy are equally important. You’ll work as part of a collaborative team supported by experienced leaders and clear performance expectations.
