Matrix MSLP Limited Partnership

A Cleared Workforce Partner Built on Indigenous Economic Partnership

Matrix MSLP Limited Partnership (Matrix MSLP) is a strategic joint venture between Matrix HR and the Metis Settlements Development Corporations providing Indigenous Workforce Solutions for Canada’s most demanding industries. We specialize in delivering a security-cleared, site-ready workforce for federal projects in defence, shipbuilding, aerospace, and critical infrastructure. By combining national recruitment reach with a dedicated hiring pipeline from all eight Métis Settlements, our model ensures that every project advances economic reconciliation while maintaining the highest standards of quality and compliance.

The Two Pillars of Our
Community Commitment:

A meaningful share of revenue generated through the partnership is reinvested into Métis Settlements, funding education, social programs, healthcare, and local business development.

2. Priority Hiring from Métis Communities:

We actively recruit and develop workers from Métis Settlements, creating a dedicated employment pipeline that connects Métis individuals with high-value careers in skilled trades and regulated industries.
