The successful candidate will be a hands-on HR leader, serving as a trusted advisor to executive leadership and managing day-to-day people operations. This highly visible position is ideal for someone who enjoys balancing strategy with execution, modernizing processes, and being the go-to resource for employees and leaders alike. Responsibilities include serving as the primary point of contact for employee needs, managing benefits administration, overseeing leave of absence processes, and supporting employee engagement initiatives. The role also involves providing guidance on employee relations, ensuring compliance with employment laws, and partnering with executive leadership on compensation strategy.
