Description
Experience Without Limits Come shape the future of brand experience.
At Jack Morton, we design and build head-turning, smile-inducing, impact-driving brand experiences that redefine what experiential marketing can achieve. We help our clients unlock the full value of experiences by turning bold ideas into meaningful connections.
That takes a team that's bold, curious, and acts as one. We build on each other's ideas, challenge conventions, and show up for one another every day. Here, you'll do your best work, grow quickly, and partner across clients, disciplines, and global teams to bring new ideas to life.
This is a place where curiosity drives what’s next, boldness raises the bar, and every win is shared. Where ownership is expected, egos are left at the door, and the work reflects the passion and talent of the people behind it.
Experience without limits—in your work, your growth, and your impact. **must be able to work hybrid in Oakville, ON 3 days/week**
We're building what's next at Jack Morton.
Experiential marketing is changing fast — how brands show up, how audiences engage, how stories get told live and in the moment. The People team is right in the middle of that change. We're not just supporting the business; we're shaping how it operates, how it scales, and how our people experience working here.
We're looking for a People Business Partner to join us in Oakville, ON and support our North America operations as part of a global People team spanning seven countries. This isn't a maintenance role. It's a build role — for someone who sees a People function as a product to design, iterate on, and improve, not a service desk to staff.
If you've been waiting for a chance to actually shape how HR gets delivered — including reimagining what AI can do for our people, our managers, and our work — this is that seat.
What you'll do
You'll be the trusted People partner to a portfolio of NAM business leaders, helping them build healthy, high-performing teams in a creative, project-driven agency environment. Day to day, that looks like:
Partnering with leaders on org design, workforce planning, talent strategy, performance, and the harder conversations that come with running creative teams under client pressure.
Owning the employee lifecycle for your client groups — onboarding, development, performance management, ER, offboarding — and looking for what's broken, repetitive, or quietly painful, then fixing it.
Coaching managers to lead better. Real coaching — direct, specific, useful — not just policy reminders.
Driving talent and succession conversations that connect to where the business is going, not just where it's been.
Leading and supporting change through one of the most consequential moments in our agency's history. The current merger integration is reshaping how we operate, and your work will help define how that lands for our people.
Building AI into how we deliver — from talent reviews to manager enablement to engagement listening — so the People function operates with leverage, not just effort.
Collaborating globally with People partners in our other regions so what we build in NAM connects to a coherent global employee experience, not a patchwork of local solutions.
What you bring
5+ years of progressive HR / People experience, with at least 3 years as a true business partner to senior leaders.
Strong knowledge of Canadian labor law. Will be the Canadian SME on the team.
Experience in tech, agency, creative, professional services, or another fast-moving, project-based environment strongly preferred. This role requires
