Fiatte Thomas succeeds S.i. Systems Founder Derek Bullen, who will
assume the role of Executive Chairman and continue to be actively
involved in supporting the long-term strategic direction of the
Company.
Ms. Fiatte Thomas is a trusted strategist and global staffing
industry leader with more than 25 years of operational and

financial, operational and digital transformation expertise to
continue executing on S.i. Systems’ growth plans across North
America.
Most recently, Ms. Fiatte Thomas served as CEO, North America at
Randstad, the largest publicly traded staffing firm, where she
oversaw key global initiatives that resulted in market-leading
profitability, while simultaneously leading thousands of employees
through a global organizational redesign. Previously, she held the

her career, Ms. Fiatte Thomas held multiple executive roles
spanning sales, business development and national accounts at
Vedior North America and Sapphire Technologies. Ms. Fiatte Thomas

“I’m thrilled to embark on this journey with the entire S.i.
Systems team to provide our distinguished customers with the talent
solutions they need to succeed and execute on mission-critical IT
projects in today’s landscape,” Ms. Fiatte Thomas said. “I also
look forward to working closely with Derek, who has grown S.i.
Systems to become the preeminent human capital partner for Canada’s
largest enterprises while building a decades-long legacy of
providing customers with premier talent solutions. His vast
industry experience and entrepreneurial spirit will be vital in the
Executive Chairman role as we continue to be the number one talent
partner of choice in Canada and implement our growth strategy in
the U.S.”
“As North American enterprises continue to digitize their
operations, we’re at an inflection point in our industry. Having an
adept ability for identifying and capitalizing on emerging trends
and technologies to drive transformative impact for employees and
customers is more important than ever,” Mr. Bullen added. “Traci is
a well-regarded industry leader with decades of experience growing
and transforming human capital companies. I am excited to have her
lead the enterprise during this next phase of growth alongside
Leonie Tyler, President of Canadian Operations, who has been an
invaluable partner in growing S.i. Systems into the company it is
today.”
Ms. Tyler added, “Traci’s decades of experience across both the
United States and Canada will be invaluable as we continue to
reinforce our position as the human capital partner of choice in
Canada, while concurrently adding the United States to our
go-forward strategic priorities for this next phase of growth. Her
vision and passion for building teams will position S.i. Systems
for long-term success and I look forward to working together
closely in her new role.”
