Large-scale senior living operator managing 10,000+ across Canadian communities
Chartwell operates a portfolio of retirement residences serving over 10,000 employees across Canada, with a tech stack anchored in Oracle enterprise systems (HCM, Hyperion, Recruitment) and Microsoft Office 365. The hiring footprint is heavily weighted toward operations (446 roles) and healthcare delivery (336 roles), with only 4 engineering headcount — typical of a real-estate and care-services business where IT is enablement, not product. Recent adoption of GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT signals early exploration of AI for administrative workflows.
