Angel•Provo, UT

About The Position

Angel is the home of stories that amplify light. Millions of people can help choose which films and series we make next, and that changes how the work feels: creators and audiences build each project together, and the story behind the story matters as much as what ends up on screen. We're a team that cares about work and about each other. If you want to help build something that Amplifies Light, we'd love to meet you. Join us and be part of stories that amplify light! Every team at Angel has questions that don't fit neatly into one specialty: how to structure the team, how to give hard feedback, what to do when someone needs an accommodation. This role is where those questions land. You'll own the People & Culture relationship for a set of assigned groups within Angel. You'll partner in their meetings, know their goals and their people, and be the first call for their leaders and Team Members, from planning a role, to the first day and when it occurs, also to a team member's last day. When the work needs a specialist in recruiting, compensation, benefits, leave or systems, you bring them in, make sure the need gets met, and close the loop with the leader. Done well, this work means leaders who make people decisions with confidence, Team Members who know where to go, and you are their specialized support and contact within the People team.

Requirements

At least 5 years of human resources experience, including 2 or more years as a business partner or generalist working directly with leaders.
Hands-on experience with Team Member relations: coaching leaders, performance management, investigations and separations.
Working knowledge of federal and state employment law, including FLSA, EEO, ADA and FMLA, and experience leading the accommodation interactive process.
Experience helping leaders with team needs, role design or workforce planning.
Experience using an HRIS.
You listen before you advise, and you write and speak plainly.
Leaders call you before the problem gets big, because you've earned their trust.
You use independent judgment: you know when to coach, when to decide, and when to involve others.
You can tell a senior leader something they don't want to hear, with candor and positive intent.
You can keep confidence, including about pay, health and investigations.
You handle several client groups at once without dropping the details.
You're comfortable with ambiguity and find the answer when there isn't a playbook.
You take ownership, share context, and are candid with positive intent.
You're at home in Google Workspace and an HRIS.
This is an on-site role, and being present with the teams you support is essential to it.
You must be authorized to work in the United States.
You'll work with confidential Team Member information every day: pay, performance, health and accommodation details, and investigations. Share it only with the people who need it to do their jobs, and follow Angel's confidentiality, insider trading, and information security policies.
Angel Studios is publicly traded, so some of what you learn about the business can count as material nonpublic information, which means this role falls under our insider trading policy and any applicable trading window restrictions.

Nice To Haves

Experience as a business partner based at a company's headquarters, working in person with senior and executive leaders, as opposed to supporting a satellite or branch location.
Bachelor's degree in a business-related field, or equivalent experience.
Experience supporting teams across multiple states.
Experience in a fast-growing or publicly traded company.
Familiarity with Angel, the Angel Guild, and our body of work (films, series, and other projects).

Responsibilities

Be the primary People & Culture contact for the leaders and Team Members in your assigned client groups.
Partner in your groups' team and leadership meetings so you know their goals, pressures and people.
Bring what you hear and find as needs back to the People & Culture team: trends, risks, and what leaders need next.
Partner with the VP of People and Culture in relation to people data, such as turnover, headcount and engagement, to show leaders what's happening in their teams.
Help leaders organize their teams: structure, role clarity, reporting lines and span of control.
Support leaders through reorganizations and other changes, including how they're communicated.
Work with leaders on headcount plans and draft job descriptions for their roles.
Own the what and why of each open role with the leader. Talent Acquisition runs the search, and you weigh in on finalists when the leader asks.
Coach leaders to give clear, timely feedback and to hold difficult conversations well.
Guide your leaders through performance reviews, calibration and promotions, and help them use Total Rewards' pay guidance.
Help leaders build development plans and spot Team Members who are making an impact.
Support team members and leaders by guiding them through concerns, conflicts and conduct issues in your assigned groups, and work them through to a fair resolution.
Advise leaders on performance plans and separations, and make sure each one is consistent and reviewed before it happens.
Lead the interactive process for accommodation requests in your client groups.
Walk Team Members and leaders through leaves of absence and returns to work, in partnership with leave administration aspects as applicable.
Spot and raise compliance needs including multi-state aspects, before they become problems.
Make sure new hires in your client groups land well, working with the recruiting and onboarding team.
Stay close to engagement and retention in your groups, and act early when something is off.
See role changes, transfers and exits through, so the Team Member and the leader both know what happens next.
If you need an accommodation to do any of this, tell us and we'll work with you.
