As Premier Restoration Hawaii continues to grow, we are seeking an experienced Senior Human Resources Manager to lead and execute the day-to-day Human Resources function for the organization.

The ideal candidate is an experienced HR professional who enjoys being both strategic and hands-on. They are comfortable moving between executive conversations, employee relations matters, recruiting activities, compliance responsibilities, and operational problem-solving. They understand that effective HR leadership requires both sound judgment and personal ownership of execution. Success in this role requires strong business judgment, a high level of accountability, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment where priorities shift and no two days look the same. We're looking for a practical, solutions-oriented HR leader who can assess issues objectively, navigate complexity with professionalism, and drive matters through resolution without creating unnecessary process, confusion, or administrative burden. The Senior HR Manager serves as a trusted partner to operational and executive leadership while helping strengthen talent acquisition, employee relations, workforce planning, compliance, performance management, and the overall employee experience.
