Director of Human Resources – North America

Company: Building Materials Manufacturer

Compensation: $130,000 – $150,000 base + up to 25% bonus + strong benefits

Overview:

This is a unique opportunity for an ambitious and strategic HR leader ready to take on a high-impact Director role. If you’re looking to step into a senior leadership position, gain exposure to private equity, and drive meaningful organizational change, this is the opportunity to build your career and create a powerful success story for your resume.

This role offers the best of both worlds—the chance to be hands-on while influencing executive-level strategy. You will work directly with the CEO and senior leadership team, overseeing HR across North America, leading a cultural transformation, and creating a high-performance workplace that attracts and retains top talent.

What Makes This Role Stand Out?

• Strategic Impact – Drive the integration of multiple business entities, establishing a unified company culture, talent strategy, and HR infrastructure.
• Executive Leadership Exposure – Report directly to the CEO, partnering with senior leadership to shape business strategy.
• Private Equity Experience – Work in a PE-backed organization, gaining critical experience in growth strategy, acquisitions, and organizational development.
• Make a Measurable Difference – Lead and execute high-impact HR initiatives that directly contribute to business growth and operational excellence.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop & Implement HR Strategy – Align HR with business objectives, leading growth, acquisitions, and cultural transformation.
• Lead Workforce Integration – Oversee the harmonization of policies, benefits, and talent strategies across multiple sites and entities.
• Build High-Performance Culture – Develop and implement programs to enhance employee engagement, leadership development, and performance management.
• Compensation & Total Rewards – Design competitive compensation structures, bonus programs, and career progression frameworks.
• Ensure Compliance & Operational Excellence – Manage Canadian and U.S. employment law compliance, oversee HRIS implementation, and support workforce planning.
• Coach & Develop Leaders – Partner with executives and managers to drive leadership effectiveness, retention strategies, and succession planning.
• Support M&A Growth – Lead HR integration efforts in mergers and acquisitions, ensuring smooth transitions and alignment with business goals.

Who Should Apply?

• HR Leaders with experience in a senior leadership role, ready to take on a broader, more strategic position.
• A builder – someone who enjoys creating, designing, building, and implementing HR strategy, systems, and processes.
• Manufacturing & Industrial HR Experts – Experienced in multi-site, operational environments, comfortable navigating workforce complexities.
• Strategic Thinkers with Hands-on Execution – Able to drive big-picture HR strategy while also executing on the details.
• HR Professionals Seeking Private Equity Exposure – Ideal for someone who wants to gain experience in a high-growth, PE-backed environment.
• Change Agents – Proven track record of leading organizational transformation, workforce integration, and cultural shifts.
• Confident, Business-Savvy Leaders – Strong HR acumen, executive presence, and ability to influence senior decision-makers.

Additional Information:

• Base Salary: $130,000 – $150,000 (flexible for top candidates)
• Bonus: Up to 25% annual performance bonus
• Retirement Plan: Defined contribution plan with up to 5% company match
• Health & Wellness: Comprehensive benefits plan, including additional fitness fund
• Additional Perks: Paid birthday holiday, Remembrance Day holiday, professional development support, vacation
• In-office role based in Mississauga, ON, working closely with senior leadership.
• 25% North American travel (primarily to manufacturing sites), potentially 50% in the first six months to establish HR presence.

This is Your Opportunity If You Want To:

• Step into a true HR leadership role with strategic influence and high visibility.
• Drive meaningful change in a high-growth, multi-site business.
• Gain private equity experience and build a compelling career success story.
• Work directly with executive leadership and play a key role in shaping company direction.
• Make a measurable impact in an organization that values HR as a strategic function.
