Form of workWhat we do every day to be our very best
Every day at Securian Canada means a day spent helping Canadians and their families build secure tomorrows. We’re agile and innovative, and we aren't afraid to challenge and create, or bring diverse perspectives to our work.
Who we need
Magic happens when the right people and resources come together to create something greater than the sum of its parts. Our HR Business Partners are business leaders first, HR leaders second. We hold ourselves to a high standard of understanding the objectives, culture, and talent capabilities of our clients. While we always seek out tangible facts and data, we also believe just as strongly in the intangibles – judgment, EQ, the ability to listen, having an inclusive mindset by default. We strive to be trusted partners and coaches to people at all levels of the organization.
