HGS is looking to add upwards of 160 employees to their North Bay operation.

That’s on top of the 300 staff that already work at the in-bound contact centre.

Officials say the additional work involves their partnership with two clients.

The new jobs include additional leadership and support roles.

They’re also boosting wages, they now range from $15 to $17.50 within the first six months, after successful completion of paid training.
