Our client is a privately held manufacturing organization with approximately $300 million in annual revenue and more than 800 employees globally.

  • Strengthen employee engagement, retention, and leadership capabilities
  • Build scalable HR programs, processes, and infrastructure to support future growth
  • wthFoster consistency and accountability across multiple locations and operating entities

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of progressive Human Resources experience, including leadership of an HR function or senior HR
  • Experience within manufacturing, industrial, automotive, distribution, logistics, or similarly operational environment
  • Strong employee and labour relations experience
  • Experience supporting multi-site operations.
  • Demonstrated success building or enhancing HR programs, policies, and procedures.

The Ideal Candidate

The successful candidate is a practical, operationally focused HR leader who thrives in a hands-on environment. They are comfortable rolling up their sleeves, partnering directly with leaders, and balancing strategic thinking with day-to-day execution.

Regular on-site presence in Scarborough is expected, with occasional travel to support other North American operations.
