Client Context
Ontario Health is responsible for coordinating and improving healthcare delivery across the province.
Challenge
The organization sought to recruit a senior advisor to guide the development of its artificial intelligence strategy and help identify opportunities to apply AI within Ontario’s health system.
HRA’s Role
HR Associates conducted a national search targeting senior leaders in artificial intelligence, health data, and health system innovation. The search required extensive market mapping across healthcare organizations, academic research institutions, and leading AI and data science organizations across Canada.
Given the emerging nature of the field, many potential candidates were not actively seeking new roles. HRA therefore engaged directly with recognized leaders in the AI and digital health community, including innovation leaders within major health organizations, and experts in applied AI across both public and private sectors.
HR Associates managed the full search process including candidate sourcing, screening, interview coordination, reference checks, and advisory support to the client throughout the evaluation and selection process.
Impact
The search successfully identified and secured a candidate with expertise spanning both healthcare and academic research environments, supporting Ontario Health’s efforts to strengthen strategic capacity in artificial intelligence.
