About The Position

We are partnered with a multi-brand fashion and apparel company on the search for its next Director of Human Resources.

They are seeking a strategic HR leader who can build and scale people infrastructure across a multi-brand organization, while staying hands-on enough to resolve employee relations issues, guide managers, and act as a trusted partner to leadership.
