People Business Partner – 16 month Contract

 

Trackunit is a fast-growing company and a leading supplier of IoT solutions, operating out of many offices worldwide. Trackunit specializes in digital solutions that connect machines, people, and systems in the global construction industry. The construction industry is the least digitalized industry of all. This lack of digitalization has left construction far behind a global economy on the rise and placed the industry as one of the least productive industries too.

We are looking for an ambitious, human-centric, and experienced colleague to join our global People & Talent Team at Trackunit for a 16-month contract from June 2025 to September 2026.

With a buzzing hub in the heart of downtown London, ON, we offer you a flexible setup with the possibility to work from home, but we expect you to be present at the London hub a few days every week. 

What’s in it for you?

  • A place in an agile growth SaaS business, with possibilities to grow internally in the company. We are moving quickly, so fasten your seat belt and prepare to adjust. Back in 2020 we were 150 employees at Trackunit and we have just passed 450 employees.
  • International environment with regular check-ins and social events across teams, departments and borders.
  • We take your personal and professional development goals seriously and we support them through training, coaching and mindfulness as well as with an open feedback culture to enable you to identify your strengths and opportunities. We do this by touching upon your impact on our triple focus: impacting yourself, impacting teams/relations and impacting the organisation/strategy.
  • Flexibility and hybrid working is not just a cliché to us or something we state in a job posting. We do offer you a flexible setup and believe that you best can structure how your routines look like. And once you have chosen how you work best, let us know what you need: we got you covered with the IT equipment you need for your work.
  • Turning the Tide. At Trackunit, we aim to create and contribute to an inclusive workplace. And this priority starts with our hiring - we do not discriminate on the basis of gender identity, sexual orientation, personal expression, ethnicity, religious belief, or disability status. We only assess candidates on their qualifications and merit. Learn more about TIDE and other DE&I initiatives here

Who are you ideally?

  • You have your CHRL or CHRP designation.
  • You have been a trusted sparring partner on People and Organizational matters to businesses for more than 5 years. 
  • Proven full-cycle recruitment experience.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to develop strong relationships with a diverse group of people.
  • You have strong knowledge of Canadian employment law. Knowledge of US employment law is also an asset. 
  • You are known to always advise colleagues with care, honesty and integrity. 
  • You know how to build processes for scale, as we are a growing organization.
  • You are fun, approachable, and always up for a good laugh. 

Don't meet every single requirement? No worries - this is what we're looking for ideally, but if you're super excited about this role but your past experience doesn't align perfectly with every qualification, we encourage you to apply.

Every day is different, but your primary responsibilities are:

  • Act as a trusted advisor to business leaders, supporting them in making strategic people decisions that align with Trackunit’s growth, culture, and business objectives.
  • Guide and support employee engagement discussions with other business partners and leaders in the organization to drive our human-centric mindset. 
  • Lead change management efforts by supporting leaders and employees through organizational transformations, process improvements, and cultural shifts.
  • Support leaders in fostering a high-performance, feedback-driven culture that aligns with Trackunit’s values and strategic priorities.
  • Collaborate with hiring managers and leaders to define hiring needs, develop workforce planning strategies, and attract top talent.
  • Manage full-cycle recruitment, from job scoping and employer branding to candidate sourcing, interviewing, and onboarding.
  • Act as a culture champion by driving engagement, inclusion, and belonging within the organization.
  • Participate in and co-create innovative initiatives that enhance the overall employee experience, organizational culture, and engagement at Trackunit.

Our hiring process

Don't waste your time on writing the best possible cover letter for the job. We want you to create an impact that matters, and that's not in the cover letter.

  • Virtual meet and greet. Meet with our Head of People & Talent, North America.
  • Personality-based interview. You will be asked to fill out an online personality assessment using use Hogan prior to the interview. There are no correct answers - the aim is a dialogue about the results and Trackunit’s culture, so you’ll get to know us better as well.
  • Virtual zoom meeting. Meet with our Chief People Officer. 
  • If needed, throughout the process we will obtain references from former employers and do background checks for level specific, if you have not provided these yourself.
  • Offer presentation and walk-through. We’re lucky to have you!

The question is: Are you in?
