THE TEAM

The mission of the Talent Management Department (HR Business Partner) is to build high-performing teams and maximize business performance.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Aritzia is in a period of exceptional growth, and we are intentionally elevating our investment in Talent Management Business Partners as a core driver of how we scale. This is a unique opportunity to operate at the intersection of talent and business strategy, partnering directly with executive leaders to evolve our operating models and elevating our people to their highest potential.

In this department you will help leaders make better, faster decisions about their teams, while raising the bar on talent across the business.

You will be a trusted partner to the business, shaping decisions through a people and organizational lens, with a strong connection to operating and financial outcomes. You will lead a team responsible for how talent is assessed, developed, and deployed across, ensuring we build the leadership and capability required to support a high performing business, now and in the future. We are currently building our Talent Management Business Partner teams across all levels (Specialists, Managers, & Directors) in several areas of the business including Digital, Technology, Product, Manufacturing, People & Culture, Food & Beverage, Supply Chain and more.
