Trail will look to its new People & Culture leader to champion its efforts to enhance its mission to make shopping ridiculously easy!

Reporting to the Chief Financial Officer and working out of the head office in Richmond, you bring a big picture, long-term view to Trail's staffing structure and requirements, while also rolling up your sleeves to enhance and deliver programs.

Recruiting, retention, upskilling, and training have been critical areas for Trail due to the growth it has been experiencing, which shows no signs of slowing.
