Humans of HR is an upcoming boutique recruitment agency in Vancouver and is very quickly becoming the go-to agency for hiring and placement of skilled corporate Professionals. Combined with our vast network and extraordinary customer-centric approach, we are the obvious choice in helping you find your next home.

Humans of HR is excited to be partnering with a respected organization in the search for a Director, HR Business Partners.

This is a unique opportunity for an accomplished HR leader to step into a highly influential role, partnering directly with senior executives to shape workforce strategy, strengthen organizational effectiveness, and elevate leadership capability across a complex and evolving business.

As a key member of the broader People & Culture leadership team, you will help define and execute people strategies that drive business performance, support transformation initiatives, and create exceptional employee experiences. This role requires a strategic thinker who is equally comfortable advising executives, navigating organizational change, and leading a high-performing HR team.

What You'll Be Leading

- Serving as a trusted advisor to executive leaders on talent, organizational effectiveness, culture, and workforce strategy.
- Developing and executing people plans that align with long-term business objectives.
- Guiding large-scale transformation and change initiatives while ensuring strong employee engagement and adoption.
- Leading organizational design and workforce planning efforts to support future growth.
- Driving succession planning and leadership development strategies for critical talent pipelines.




- Leveraging data and insights to influence decision-making and measure the effectiveness of people initiatives.
- Supporting complex employee and labour relations matters in partnership with specialized HR teams.
- Playing a key role in business integrations, organizational transitions, and enterprise-wide strategic initiatives.
- Coaching and developing a team of HR professionals while fostering a culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement.

What We're Looking For

- 8+ years of progressive Human Resources experience, including significant experience operating at a senior HR Business Partner leadership level.
- Proven ability to influence and partner with executive leadership teams.
- Strong background in organizational design, talent strategy, leadership development, and change management.
- Experience working within large, complex, and fast-paced environments.
- Demonstrated success leading teams and building trusted relationships across all levels of an organization.
- Strong business acumen, analytical capability, and problem-solving skills.
- Experience supporting unionized environments is considered an asset.

On offer is a very attractive base salary of 160-170 K base plus 20% bonus plus a very healthy car allowance. We expect the total comp for this role to range between 200-215 K.

Why This Chance Stands Out

This role offers the chance to make a meaningful impact at both the strategic and operational levels. You'll join an organization that values people leadership, embraces transformation, and recognizes the critical role HR plays in driving business success.
