To elevate how organizations support their people through change. We don’t just offer HR solutions—we create space for possibility, growth, and meaningful progress.
Led by CEO Roselyn Himann, Vanterra is home to a handpicked network of over 60 expert consultants and coaches who bring deep experience, empathy, and focus to every engagement. We’re here to help people thrive—through career transitions, workplace shifts, or organizational transformation.
Vanterra was created to bridge the gap between strategic HR consulting and the human realities of change.
Our founder, Roselyn, saw too many people left behind in moments of transition—and too many HR leaders asked to do more with less. Her goal is creating a company that could support both, equally. That vision continues to guide everything we do.
We’re here to be your trusted partner—whether you’re guiding your team through growth or helping someone find their next chapter.
We lead with people and back it with strategy. Our consultants are trusted allies who approach every engagement with care, clarity, and a deep respect for the work you do.

Strategic HR Consultant
We know that leading people through complexity, change, and uncertainty is one of the most important—and often most challenging—responsibilities you carry as an HR professional. That’s why I created Vanterra. I want to support you with practical expertise, thoughtful partnership, and an unwavering focus on your people.
We’re a Canadian firm with global reach, and we’ve built our reputation by working alongside organizations like yours through moments that matter—from major transformations to the everyday decisions that shape team culture and performance.
Whether you need a strategic advisor, additional HR capacity, or a compassionate partner to support your people through career transition, we’re here to help.
Vanterra is grounded in three pillars:
HR Advisory Services for when you need seasoned guidance on policy, strategy, or change management.
Fractional HR Support to extend your team’s capabilities—without adding permanent headcount.
Career Transition Services that are human, high-touch, and aligned with your values.
No two organizations are alike, and we honour that by delivering solutions that are personal, adaptable, and always anchored in trust. We get to know your people, your business, and your goals—so we can support not just what you’re doing today, but where you’re going tomorrow.
If you’re interested in finding out more, please drop me a line. We’d love to partner in creating workplaces where people and potential thrive.
