HR Business Partner

Location:
Downtown Toronto

Work Schedule:
3 day/week in office

Day-to-Day Responsibilities:

Collabera is looking for a HR Business Partner to join a large commercial insurance company located downtown Toronto. This is a dynamic, wear-multiple-hats role, ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, mid-to-large corporate environment but not coming from a very large bureaucracy.

  • Manage project-based work (15%), including compliance projects such as Bill 96 (Quebec), working closely with the legal department.
  • Oversee social wellness initiatives (15%), including diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, corporate volunteering, social commitments, and corporate services responsibilities.
  • Serve as a liaison for learning and development programs, ensuring managers and employees understand enterprise-wide protocols without directly building or coordinating programs.
  • Support various Canadian business units, fostering consistent HR practices and promoting employee engagement.

Must-Have Skills & Experience:

  • Bilingual: English and French (Preferred).
  • 5+ years of HR experience in business partnering and/or talent acquisition.
  • Strong experience in full-cycle recruitment (6-10 requisitions at a time).
  • Proven ability to advise managers on employee relations, performance management, and promotions.
  • Experience supporting multiple business units across geographies.
  • Solid understanding of HR compliance, employment standards, and diversity, equity, and inclusion best practices.
  • Previous experience in mid-size companies or fast-growing organizations.

Nice-to-Have Skills & Experience:

  • Experience with HR projects in Quebec (e.g., Bill 96 or other provincial legislation).
  • Exposure to corporate social responsibility programs and employee wellness initiatives.
  • Familiarity with learning and development frameworks and communication of HR policies.
