Chief People Officer Toronto, Ontario The Art Gallery of Ontario is one of the largest art museums in North America, attracting some one million visitors annually. The AGO Collection of more than 120,000 works of art ranges from significant works by Indigenous and Canadian artists to contemporary art and European masterpieces. The AGO is expanding the museum’s presence in the international art world with the building of the exciting new Dani Reiss Modern and Contemporary Gallery.

The CPO will bring senior leadership experience and a proven track record of success in a complex, multi-stakeholder organization. Working closely with an enterprising CEO and a committed team, the CPO will have a passion for the AGO’s mission and a desire to make a positive impact across the organization’s 650 team members and hundreds of volunteers. By applying knowledge, insights, and thought leadership, the CPO will play a vital role in shaping a high-performing, inclusive, healthy and resilient organization, one predicated on people strategies and systems that enable the AGO’s mission, vision, values, and aspirations. The CPO will provide strategic leadership for all aspects of the AGO’s people and culture agenda, including labour relations, talent management, organizational design, learning and development, performance management, employee engagement, equity and inclusion, reconciliation, workforce planning, compensation and benefits, health and wellness, HR systems, and organizational culture. Combining strategic vision, operational acumen, pragmatism, and emotional intelligence, the CPO will be a trusted strategic advisor to the entire leadership of one of our most treasured cultural institutions.
