Description
AccessHR is excited to partner with the City of Airdrie for the recruitment of a full-time, permanent Manager, Human Resources.
ABOUT AIRDRIE
Airdrie is located just north of Calgary, Alberta with its southern boundary just a few kilometers from Calgary's northern boundary. It is one of the fastest growing cities in Canada and is projected to continue to grow rapidly due its proximity to Calgary and a large land annexation from nearby Rocky View County in 2012.
Airdrie is a vibrant and caring community rich in urban amenities and opportunities for everyone. With a population approaching 100,000 and an average age under 35 years old, Airdrie is the 5th largest city in Alberta and is predicted to move into the #3 position, after Calgary and Edmonton, within the next few years.
Airdrie is also ideally situated within an easy drive to the Rocky Mountains and the recreational and amenity choices of Calgary as a major urban centre. Residents here enjoy excellent proximity to Calgary International Airport and downtown Calgary.
ABOUT THE CITY OF AIRDRIE
Through the commitment and caring of our 800 employees, we are dedicated to our mission of Create, Serve, and Care. Our core values of Open Dialogue, Collaborative Relationships, Learning, Ownership, Innovation & Entrepreneurial Spirit, and Encourage the Heart, support the achievement of our Mission.
Our inclusive culture creates a workplace that welcomes aspiring, driven, and creative individuals to help us accomplish our business and community goals. We are supportive of one another, and we have fun while we serve our community. We are also passionate about improving the lives of our residents through care and respect. At the City of Airdrie, we learn, grow, and accomplish great things together.
POSITION DESCRIPTION
The City of Airdrie has created a new role of Manager, Human Resources, to lead all human resources functions including people development and payroll & benefits. This position reports to the Director of People and Organizational Effectiveness and works in close partnership with employees, leaders, senior executives, council, and bargaining unit executives.
This opportunity is well suited for a strategic, trusted professional with a passion and appreciation for public service. You will spend a large portion of your time driving workplace culture initiatives, developing teams, and facilitating resolution of complex employee relations matters. You will also bring project management and change management expertise to people & culture initiatives.
A clear differentiator for this role is that the successful candidate will be a trusted advisor to the CAO and Director team at both tactical and strategic levels. Ultimately, we are seeking an approachable, transparent, empathetic leader who listens carefully, takes an inquiry-based approach, demonstrates high emotional intelligence, and brings a commitment to service excellence.
