We are seeking an experienced, proactive, and highly organized Human Resources Manager to join our team on an approximately 6-month fixed-term contract to provide maternity leave coverage.

This is a hands-on position supporting a growing company with fewer than 40 employees across Canada and the United States. The successful candidate will independently manage daily HR functions while working closely with senior management to maintain effective HR practices and support the company's ongoing business needs.

The HR Manager will oversee recruitment, employee relations, HR compliance, performance management, benefits administration, employee engagement, and HR reporting for our Canadian operations, while providing HR support for employees at our Sterling Heights, Michigan location.

The role also involves coordinating employee payroll information with the Controller, who is responsible for payroll processing in both Canada and the United States.

We are looking for a resourceful, people-focused professional who can quickly integrate into our organization, take ownership of existing HR responsibilities, and ensure continuity throughout the maternity leave period.

Practical proficiency with Claude AI is required. The ideal candidate will be comfortable using Claude to improve HR documentation, communications, administrative efficiency, and process management while maintaining confidentiality and appropriate human oversight.
