Description

About Origami HR

Origami HR is a boutique HR and leadership consulting firm that partners with growing, service-based organizations across North America. We specialize in leadership development, talent strategy, fractional HR, and people performance initiatives that help organizations scale intentionally.

Our work is highly bespoke, relationship-driven, and built around real business needs, not off-the-shelf solutions. We partner closely with our clients as trusted advisors and an extension of their teams, combining strategic thinking with practical execution.

As Origami HR continues to grow, we’re building a curated network of experienced consultants to support fractional HR leadership, talent strategy, performance management, and people operations engagements across our client portfolio.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for an experienced HR Consultant to support client engagements on a contract basis. We anticipate consultants supporting a mix of shorter-term and ongoing fractional client engagements depending on expertise, availability, and active project needs, with the volume of work varying naturally throughout the year. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys both the strategic and operational side of HR work and is equally comfortable advising leaders, building foundational people processes, supporting performance conversations, or jumping into the details to help move an engagement forward.

What You’ll Be Doing

Depending on the engagement, responsibilities may include:

  • Supporting fractional HR leadership engagements across a range of growing organizations
  • Advising leaders on employee experience, team effectiveness, performance management, and people-related challenges
  • Building and improving foundational HR processes, documentation, and people practices
  • Supporting talent management and performance management initiatives
  • Leading stakeholder interviews, discovery conversations, and organizational assessments
  • Developing and refining policies, processes, templates, and employee-facing resources
  • Supporting onboarding, role clarity, organizational structure, and people operations initiatives
  • Translating organizational challenges into practical, business-focused HR solutions
  • Managing day-to-day communication across assigned workstreams with professionalism, responsiveness, and strong client judgment

What Makes Someone Successful Here

The strongest consultants in this role are:

  • Exceptional communicators with polished client presence
  • Strategic thinkers who are also highly execution-oriented
  • Comfortable working independently with strong ownership and follow-through
  • Able to navigate ambiguity and shifting client needs with professionalism
  • Thoughtful, low-ego collaborators who genuinely care about client outcomes

Ideal Background

  • 5+ years of experience in HR, people operations, talent management, organizational development, or HR consulting
  • Experience supporting performance management, talent development, employee experience, and people operations initiatives
  • Comfortable working across both strategic and operational HR work
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management capability
  • CHRP or CHRL designation is considered an asset

How We Work

At Origami HR, how we work matters just as much as what we deliver.

Partnership

We sit on our clients’ side of the table. We approach every engagement as a true partnership and operate as an extension of the teams we support. We care deeply about outcomes, relationships, and building trust through how we show up every day.

Impact

We focus on solving the real problem, not just delivering the output. We think beyond surface-level solutions and create work that is practical, usable, and meaningful long after the engagement ends.

Craft

Our clients choose Origami HR because they want something more thoughtful, more tailored, and more human than traditional consulting. We bring expertise, strong judgment, and a high standard of quality to everything we do. Every interaction reflects our craft.

Ownership

We follow through, communicate proactively, and take responsibility for delivering excellent work. We take initiative, move work forward, and are trusted to operate with professionalism, care, and accountability.

Working Model

  • Independent contractor / subcontractor engagement
  • Consultants are responsible for managing their taxes, insurance, and independent contractor requirements
  • Canada-based, 100% remote work
  • Project-based engagements with variable hours that flex with client needs, rather than a set or full-time schedule
  • Rates are competitive and based on scope and experience, and we discuss them early in the interview process
