This role's mission & overview:
We're looking for a Senior Director of People who will oversee the operational arm of our People & Culture function. You are a highly capable leader who can balance the technical rigor of HR program management with the human touch of business partnering. This role is critical to maintaining and scaling our award-winning culture as we continue to grow.
As our Senior Director of People, you'll be the calm, confident force that keeps our people operations running smoothly. You'll oversee HR programs, systems, benefits, compliance, and several direct reports, while serving as a trusted advisor to leadership and a reliable resource for employees at all levels. You hold vendors accountable, prevent small issues from becoming big ones, and ensure our team has everything they need to thrive. You are a proactive leader who sees around corners, builds scalable systems, and knows when to roll up their sleeves and when to delegate.
As a Senior Director of People on our People & Culture team, you will:
- Ensure optimal usage of HR tools and systems, including vendor selection, managing vendor relationships, driving contract negotiations, and ensuring accountability to service delivery, SLAs, and contract terms, in alignment with business strategy and growth
- Manage and oversee our benefits program, including open enrollment, vendor relationships, and ongoing benefits administration and plan evaluation
- Manage and develop a high-performing People Operations function by setting clear priorities, delegating effectively, and driving accountability for high-quality execution
- Own and lead people programs across performance, compensation, benefits, payroll, and compliance, ensuring alignment with people strategy while partnering with the team to design and scale effective solutions
- Support M&A activities by contributing to HR due diligence, integration planning, and post-acquisition alignment of teams, systems, and programs
- Ensure compliance with federal, state, and local employment regulations
- Partner with Finance on payroll, audits, and reporting
- Own and resolve complex, high-risk employee relations matters
- Act as a trusted partner to department leaders, providing strategic HR guidance and building strong relationships across all levels of the organization
- Model our values: Put Team First, Own It, Be Admirable, Wonder, Find a Better Way, Give Joy
We think a successful candidate will bring:
- Progressive HR experience with at least 3 years in a leadership role managing direct reports
- Technical HR expertise and onboarding experience in HRIS administration, benefits management, leave management, and compliance
- Ability to build and scale HR programs in a high growth environment, including through M&A-driven growth
- An approachable and kind, but firm when it matters leadership style. You don't shy away from difficult conversations, and you know how to respectfully hold employees and vendors accountable.
- Trust when things get complicated, and you're equally comfortable diving into the details of a benefits plan or coaching a leader through a challenging personnel decision.
- Proven track record in employee relations and conflict resolution
- The ability to communicate and collaborate effectively in a hybrid setting

A few of the benefits we are proud to offer:

We encourage people of all backgrounds to apply:
We're actively taking steps to make sure our culture is inclusive and that our processes and practices promote equity for all, including people of color, people from working-class backgrounds, women, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. We welcome and encourage applications from people with these identities or members of other historically marginalized groups.
Research shows that women and people of color tend not to apply to jobs unless they believe they are 100% qualified and apply to fewer senior-level positions. With that in mind, we encourage you to apply if you're not sure whether you meet our qualifications. We'd love to have the opportunity to consider you!
We encourage applications from parents, parents-to-be, and those responsible for the caretaking of others. We offer paid parental leave for birthing and non-birthing parents (including for adoption, surrogacy, and foster care placement) and paid loss leave to recover from miscarriage or stillbirth. The company's HSA and wellness allowance contributions may be used toward childcare, eldercare, adoption fees, and fertility treatments like IVF, among other expenses.
