**About Tarion**

Since 1976, Tarion has provided new home warranty protection to more than 2 million Ontario homes. We serve new home buyers and new homeowners by ensuring that one of their life's biggest investments is protected. Almost every new home in the province is covered by a new home warranty. This warranty protection is provided by Ontario's builders and lasts up to seven years. It is backstopped by Tarion. More than 375,000 homes are currently enrolled in the warranty program. Every year about 55,000 new homes are enrolled.

**How We Make a Difference**

A home is one of life's biggest purchases. As an independent, not-for-profit organization, Tarion provides Ontario's new home buyers and owners with peace of mind that their purchase is safeguarded through the province's new home warranty and protection program.

Almost every new home in the province is covered by a new home warranty. Tarion ensures consumer protection by providing free tools, guides and resources to help homeowners understand their builder's warranty and navigate warranty claims with confidence.

If a builder does not meet their warranty commitments, Tarion offers guidance to help homeowners ensure they receive the coverage they're entitled to, and when necessary, steps in to help resolve warranty claims.

**About the Role**

The Warranty Services Representative provides technical and warranty advice to vendors, builders, home buyers and owners, consultants and lawyers. This position conducts early intervention, investigative, emergency inspections, meetings and conciliations with vendors and owners to assess complaints in compliance with the Ontario New Home Warranties Plan Act and Tarion's Construction Performance Guidelines.
