Temat: CEMBA Program

Greetings everyone! I am a Canadian coming to Poland this fall - if everything goes well - to attend the Canadian Executive MBA program at the Warsaw School of Economics. My wife has been adamant that I find employment before I go. Can anyone give me direction as to some good opportunities out there, or possible contacts that I should speak to?

Some brief highlights of my career:
• Hitachi Canada Ltd. - Managed HR functions nationally (Calgary/Mississauga/Ottawa as well as previous locations - now closed - in Edmonton and Vancouver) for 5 distinct business divisions – Power and Industry; Consumer Electronics; Medical Services; Optical Security Products; and Finance and Administration.
• 16+ years of senior HR management experience within multinational companies (Hitachi, Sanofi) and E-Commerce sector (Chapters Online and Borderfree Ltd.).
• Company lead on two implementations of ADP Products - HR Resource Partner and the Premier Performance Pack ( People@work and Pay@work ).
• Reported directly to the President and CEO (Hitachi Canada Ltd., http://hitachi.ca) and Executive Group. In previous positions I have reported directly to the CFO (Borderfree Ltd.) and President (Chapters Online).
• Sarbanes-Oxley Experience (Internal Audit Committee member along with CFO, CEO EVP and VP).
• Extensive experience in all HR disciplines at both the strategic as well as "hands on" level.

I look forward to your comments and advice.

Regards,
Dan Gravel
