John Kowalczyk is a Founder at Risus Talent Partners. Colleagues describe him as "John has been the best HR professional I've worked with in my career. When John joined Willscot, we had a very small group of HR employees supporting the US, Canada and Mexico. As a result, our field leadership was forced to act as their own HR generalist, with spotty results at best. John transformed this team to support a rapidly growing business. He implemented the Business Partner model to work directly with our senior leaders across the business. He built out a professional recruiting team and a total rewards/benefits team capable of supporting a much larger company. During his time here, Willscot went public and more than doubled in size via M&A and internal growth. Our HR team scaled up seamlessly due to the structure John built and we are now well positioned to continuing growing. I strongly endorse and recommend John as Senior HR Executive and Humor Officer." and "John is an amazing leader and does it with a style that is second to none. Over the years I have worked with John I have never felt more supported by an HR leader in my career. John is on a whole other level and brings an amazing energy that is unparrelled. No question if your looking for an HR leader he is top shelf!!"
