• Excellent communication skills clear, inclusive, and practical.

Nice To Haves

• Experience supporting a blended workforce (office + field) and multiple pay types.
• Collaborative, low-ego partner who builds trust quickly.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and growth-stage change.

Responsibilities

• Partner with senior leaders to translate business goals into people plans (org design, workforce planning, talent, engagement, retention).
• Coach managers on leadership routines, feedback, performance management, and team health; build practical toolkits and operating rhythms.
• Lead complex ER cases with sound judgment, documentation, and consistency; advise on risk mitigation and compliance.
• Drive performance cycles and calibration; support PIPs and improvement plans with clear expectations and measurable outcomes.
• Partner with our L&D lead to build manager training, role-based learning paths, and practical workshops; help drive adoption and measure impact.
• Partner closely with Payroll/Finance to ensure accurate, timely payroll processing across employee groups (including field/project-based teams). Own/coordinate inputs (changes, approvals, audits), troubleshoot issues, and improve payroll-related workflows and controls.
• Support M&A integration and change management (communications, manager alignment, policy harmonization, adoption tracking).
• Partner on leveling, offers, internal equity, and market benchmarking; help leaders make consistent decisions.
• Partner with Recruiting and LD&I to identify critical roles, succession risks, and development plans for technical leadership.
• Use data (attrition, engagement, performance, DEI signals) to identify trends and run targeted interventions.
• Ensure policies are practical and scalable; support training completion and compliance requirements across states and roles.
• Improve HR processes, templates, and documentation; create simple dashboards and KPIs for leadership.

Benefits

• We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
