Located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, the Canadian Museum for Human Rights (CMHR) is the first museum solely dedicated to the evolution, celebration, and future of human rights. Overall, CMHR’s mandate is to explore the subject of human rights—with special but not exclusive reference to Canada—in order to enhance the public’s understanding of human rights, to promote respect for others, and to encourage reflection and dialogue. Since opening in 2014, the museum has received international awards and recognition for their work and the visitor experience they offer. CMHR is proud to celebrate the achievements of their hard work while shining a spotlight on the world of human rights. They strive to build understanding, promote respect, and encourage reflection.


CMHR aims to foster a deep fulfilment of human rights education and reflection, encouraging future generations to take action for a better world. It is within this context that CMHR invites nominations and applications for the roles of Director, People, Culture and Growth a position that is instrumental to the ongoing growth and success of the museum, as well as the advancement of modeling and promoting human rights.

The Director will oversee initiatives across various areas, including Equity, Employee and Labour Relations, Operations, Talent Management, and Learning and Development , collaborating closely with the senior leadership team to ensure that people-focused strategies support CMHR’s broader strategic goals and foster a caring and high-performance environment.


A central focus of this role is to champion anti-racist and equitable practices while implementing equitable talent practices and a representative workplace that provide all employees with tailored growth and development opportunities. The Director will design leadership development programs to nurture internal talent, address skill gaps, and facilitate career progression. Additionally, by overseeing learning and development programs, the Director will enhance competency, encourage innovation, and promote leadership throughout the organization. Through strategic guidance in talent acquisition, succession planning, and the establishment of collaborative frameworks, the Director will significantly influence CMHR’s growth and reconciliation journey, ensuring the museum remains a leader in human rights education and advocacy.
