JOB SUMMARY

Are you early in your career, a recent graduate, or looking for flexible, part-time work? AGLC is seeking Casual Liquor Agents to support regulatory compliance activities across Alberta. This unique opportunity is ideal for individuals starting out and looking to gain experience in inspection, compliance, or regulatory environments.

 

As a Casual Liquor Agent, you will work alongside an AGLC Inspector to visit licensed cannabis and liquor establishments. Your primary responsibility will be to attempt controlled purchases to help verify that establishments are properly checking identification (ID) in accordance with provincial regulations.

 

In Alberta, licensed establishments must request ID from anyone who appears under the age of 25 when purchasing cannabis or liquor. Your role helps ensure these rules are being followed and supports public safety.

 

What You’ll Do

• Accompany AGLC Inspectors to licensed liquor and cannabis establishments across urban and rural Alberta
• Participate in controlled purchase attempts to assess ID verification practices
• Observe interactions and accurately record key details of each visit
• Prepare clear and concise written reports following inspections
• As required, participate in administrative hearings to provide evidence

 

What We’re Looking For

• Early career individuals, recent graduates, or those with 0–3 years of experience
• Strong observation and attention to detail
• Comfortable working independently and in unfamiliar environments
• Clear written communication skills

SKILLS & ABILITIES

• Completion of Grade 12 (or equivalent); please include year of graduation
• Ability to meet program requirements related to age-based compliance testing. This includes individuals who may be reasonably perceived as under 25 years of age, as part of verifying ID practices in licensed establishments
• Willingness to travel within Alberta (urban and rural locations)

 

NOTE:

• To be eligible to work for AGLC, you must be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident or eligible to work in Canada.
• While we appreciate all applications we receive, we advise that only candidates under consideration will be contacted.
• As a condition of employment, you will be required to obtain a satisfactory security clearance and clean drivers abstract (if necessary) prior to employment.
• An equivalent combination of education and experience may be considered. Candidates with lesser qualifications may be considered at a lower classification and salary. This recruitment may be used to fill future vacancies.
• AGLC is committed to creating a diverse environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
