Avanti isn’t a start-up. In fact, we’ve been in the payroll business for over 40 years. But in 2016, everything changed. That was when Avanti co-CEO, Amin Lalani found and acquired our then 36-year-old Calgary company with the desire to improve upon a good thing through product innovation and a people-first mindset.
Soon after the acquisition, Amin’s friend and colleague David Owen Cord joined as co-CEO and together they have transformed Avanti into a leading Canadian HRIS provider. In this short time, David and Amin have built a talented team that spans the country, doubled Avanti’s revenues, and transformed the Avanti experience into a modern, diversified, people-focused solution.
If you were to ask either one of them why they chose Avanti, their answers would likely be the same: Great clients, great people, and great products that help people simplify their work.
