Bio
Shaun Conroy
During my time working with Fred I found him to be a tremendous asset to the business throughout a period of significant growth and tremendous organizational change. Fred was always willing to take on new challenges, roll up his sleeves and just "get it done". I would recommend Fred for any Senior role that requires and hands on leader with a wealth of experience building strong relationships with customers throughout North America.
Tara Erskine, KC, CPHR
I worked as a legal advisor to Fred in his management role for a number of years including through multiple applications for certification and bargaining of first collective agreements. Fred has an incredible ability to be able to connect with people. He sees the big picture and what it means but also has the talent of being able to understand and address issues facing individual employees. He is solution-oriented and can address operational needs of the business in a practical way. He has a sophisticated understanding of labour relations, employee relations, succession planning and talent development, as well as the application of labour and employment law, and human rights law, in multiple jurisdictions. Fred is a pleasure to work with.
