About The Position

We’re not your typical mortgage and title service provider. We like to think we’re bold, have a whole lot of heart and are unafraid to challenge the status quo. It’s our people—our team members and customers—that fuel our passion for making the homebuying journey the very best it can be. Within our Financial Services suite of companies, we pledge to ‘Love the Customer’ each and every day throughout the homebuying process, working hand and hand with our builder to create memorable customer experiences. We’re proud of our current and past recognition as a Best Place to Work by numerous publications such as National Mortgage News, Orlando Sentinel and the Orlando Business Journal. Our esteemed company culture affectionately called ‘TMLiving,’ our unwavering pledge to sustainability and philanthropy and our dedication to elevating the customer and employee experience make us a great choice for potential homebuyers and team members alike. This is not a traditional HR role. As our Senior People Operations Generalist, you will operate as a true business partner: executing with precision, thinking strategically, and elevating everything you touch. You will lead people programs that develop and retain exceptional talent, drive People Operations forward with a consultative mindset, and bring a genuine point of view on how AI can modernize the way we work. You bring data, instinct, and a genuine passion for the intersection of people and business outcomes. This role reports to the People Operations Manager.
