Partenaire d'Affaires, Ressources Humaines | Human Resources Business Partner
About The Position
Helios Software Group is looking for a Human Resources Business Partner (HRBP) to support multiple businesses within the Helios Software Group in Montreal. Helios Software Group acquires established vertical market software companies and supports them with a long-term, stewardship-oriented model. Our approach blends disciplined investment with operational guidance, enabling leadership teams to deliver durable performance and growth over time. Helios is backed by the permanent capital of our parent company Valsoft Corporation and operates with a buy-and-hold thesis. This provides us the flexibility to invest patiently, and the commitment to partner with businesses for the decades ahead while providing strong expertise from operating 140+ software companies globally. As the portfolio grows, we continue to search for best-in-class talent that will help us scale further. We are seeking ambitious people who are entrepreneurial and willing to grow with our portfolio as it evolves. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a hands-on environment and enjoys taking full ownership of HR execution — from recruiting to employee relations, performance management, and HR operations. A key part of this role will be supporting businesses through post-acquisition integration, including organizational changes, process alignment, and implementing strong HR foundations while maintaining a positive employee experience. You will be the primary HR point of contact for your assigned businesses, partnering closely with leadership to support growth and drive execution.
