Flexibility during this period provides early exposure, strong visibility, and a chance to help shape how we operate in our new location.

This role provides strategic consultation and operational support across all aspects of the employee lifecycle while overseeing selected facility and administrative programs.

• Oversee procurement topics affecting People & Culture (e.g., wellness providers, recognition programs, engagement tools, and training platforms).
• Administer payroll, related benefit processes in collaboration with Finance and Operations, and company car program related tasks.
• Manage facilities-related coordination, including space planning, vendor oversight, safety, and employee experience initiatives.
• Support communication, engagement, community and recognition initiatives across the organization.
• Provide data-driven insights and reporting to support strategic and operational decisions.
• Contribute to budgeting, forecasting, and vendor contract management related to People & Culture and facilities.
• Ensure accuracy and compliance in HR documentation and audit processes.

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business, or related field; advanced education or certification (CHRP/CHRL/SHRM) preferred.
• Minimum five years of progressive experience in HR/People & Culture, preferably in financial services or a global organization.
• Knowledge of Canadian employment law and global HR practices.
• Proven experience managing cross-functional operations (facilities, procurement, or company car administration).
