People & Performance Partner

Halter • Boulder, CO

1d • Hybrid

About The Position

At Halter, performance matters. The US team is scaling rapidly, and leadership quality will determine whether we win or stall. We’re hiring a People & Performance Partner to work closely with managers and strengthen how teams perform as we grow. This is not transactional HR. It’s not policy administration. It’s not a feel-good support role. It’s about lifting performance through clear standards, strong judgment, and better leadership. You’ll partner with managers across the US to strengthen how they lead and how their teams perform.

Requirements

• Commercial judgment, not just HR knowledge
• Ability to think, not just execute
• Strong judgment under pressure
• Ability to stay calm in complexity
• Comfortable challenging managers directly
• Ability to handle hard conversations without flinching
• Understanding of performance and accountability
• Commercial thinking
• Strong sense of fairness
• Clear communication
• Ability to operate well in ambiguity
• Grit and integrity to hold high standards

Responsibilities

• Coach managers through performance and development conversations
• Navigate early Employee Relations (ER) and team dynamics issues
• Raise clarity, accountability, and standards
• Spot risk before it becomes systemic
• Escalate when needed — but not by default
• Operate close to the work, where complexity is real and standards are high. This might mean time on the road visiting various members of the sales team.

Benefits

• Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
• Unlimited PTO
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
• Paid wellness leave (3 days per year)
• Comprehensive health benefits (Medical, dental, and vision coverage starting the first day of the month after you join)
• Personal growth fund ($750 USD per year)
• Parental leave (16 weeks paid leave for birthing parents and 8 weeks paid leave for non-birthing parents)
• 401(k) (100% match on the first 3% contributed, plus 50% match on the next 2%)
• Onboarding travel to New Zealand
