Working in Mississauga

Office & admin work in Mississauga

Office work in Mississauga has two centres: the corporate head offices in Meadowvale, along Highway 401 at Dixie and Hurontario and in the City Centre, which hire receptionists, administrative assistants, customer-service representatives and accounts staff; and the freight, forwarding and 3PL companies around Pearson, which hire logistics coordinators, customs and documentation clerks, dispatch support and customer-service staff who understand shipping.

MiWay and the Milton GO line serve the head-office areas; airport-area logistics offices are best reached by car or the 7 Airport and 42 Derry routes. Administrative pay in Mississauga typically runs $20 to $28 an hour, with logistics coordinators at $22 to $30 and permanent roles from $42,000 to $60,000.

Getting there

Getting to work in Mississauga

MiWay covers Mississauga densely. The 7 Airport, 42 Derry and 57 Courtneypark serve the Pearson-area terminals, the 43 Matheson–Argentia crosses the Heartland and Meadowvale industrial lands, and the 107 Malton Express runs from Islington subway station. The Milton GO line (Dixie, Cooksville, Erindale, Streetsville, Meadowvale and Lisgar) and the Kitchener line at Malton GO connect from Toronto and Brampton.

Toronto workers reach Pearson-area sites in 40 to 60 minutes via Kipling station and the airport buses; Brampton and Malton residents are usually 20 minutes away. Overnight shifts near the airport have reasonable coverage because the airport itself runs 24 hours. Meadowvale and Clarkson after midnight do not.

By car, the 401, 403, 410 and 407 put most sites within 15 minutes of anywhere in Peel. Parking is free. The Dixie–401 interchange and Derry Road near the airport are the slow spots at shift change.

Questions

Frequently asked

Do you test skills?

Yes: typing, Word, Excel, Outlook and data-entry accuracy, at registration. Scores are shared with employers alongside your profile, which helps you get interviews for roles that match your strengths.

Are office jobs temporary or permanent?

Both, and often one becomes the other. Leave coverage and project roles are temporary; many employers convert good temporary staff to permanent after a set period.

Do you have bilingual roles?

Regularly. Bilingual French is the most common request; Cantonese, Mandarin, Tamil, Punjabi, Hindi and Spanish are also frequently sought for customer-service and front-desk roles.

Not seeing the right role?

Register your resume once and a recruiter will call when something suitable opens up, often before it is posted. There is never a fee to job seekers.
