Job description

Full-Time | Monday–Friday | 40 Hours/Week

Location: Mississauga, ON (Fully-on Site)

Are you an HR professional who enjoys being close to the business, trusted to make decisions and able to see the impact of your work?

We're looking for a hands‑on HR & Operations Manager to join a growing, entrepreneurial transportation business and become a key partner to its leadership team.

You'll be the primary HR resource supporting staff and ownership across employee relations, recruitment, onboarding, policies and day‑to‑day people operations.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who has worked in a smaller, owner‑operated business, enjoys wearing multiple hats and wants the autonomy to improve how things are done.

What You'll Do
  • Lead day‑to‑day HR and employee relations
  • Manage performance, coaching, disciplinary matters and terminations
  • Own recruitment, onboarding and offboarding
  • Recruit for dispatch and operational positions
  • Improve HR and owner‑operator onboarding processes
  • Maintain HR policies, documentation and employee records
  • Provide guidance on Ontario employment standards and workplace practices
  • Resolve employee and driver concerns confidently and professionally
  • Support broader office and operational priorities
  • Identify opportunities to improve processes and bring new ideas forward
What We're Looking For
  • 3+ years of hands‐on HR experience
  • Experience in a small to mid‑sized, entrepreneurial or owner‑operated business
  • Strong employee relations and conflict‑resolution skills
  • Working knowledge of Ontario employment standards
  • Confidence handling difficult conversations and strong personalities
  • Comfortable making decisions and working independently
  • Practical, solutions‐oriented approach to HR
  • Strong communication, organization and follow‑through

Experience in transportation, trucking, logistics, warehousing, distribution, manufacturing, construction or another frontline operational environment is a strong asset.

Why This Opportunity?

This isn't a role where you'll be one small part of a large HR department.

You’ll have direct access to leadership, real autonomy and the opportunity to influence how the business operates. You'll be encouraged to bring forward ideas, challenge inefficient processes and take ownership of solutions.

For someone with the right leadership potential, there is also a genuine opportunity to expand beyond HR and grow toward a future General Manager / senior operational leadership role.

What You Can Expect
  • Salary up to $75,000 - $80,000 + Health Spending Account
  • Flexibility around start and finish times based on operational needs
  • Direct access to company leadership
  • Autonomy to make decisions and improve processes
  • Exposure to broader business operations
  • Opportunity for long‑term career growth

If you're at your best in an environment where you can wear multiple hats, solve problems, make decisions and help shape a growing business, we'd love to hear from you.
