THE OPPORTUNITY

HR Soul is partnering with a growing, multi-location organization to identify an experienced Human Resources Manager who can serve as both a hands-on HR leader and a trusted partner to the business.

This is a broad, highly visible HR role with responsibility across the employee lifecycle, including talent acquisition, employee relations, compensation and benefits, learning and development, compliance, HR systems, engagement, and organizational initiatives.

The successful candidate will be comfortable moving between strategy and execution. One day may involve advising leadership on a sensitive employee matter or workforce initiative, while the next may involve recruiting, reviewing HR data, improving a process, or communicating a new program to employees.

The position may also provide HR support across multiple locations and, periodically, international operations.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Serve as a trusted HR partner to leaders, managers, and employees across the organization.
• Develop, implement, and continuously improve HR policies, programs, processes, and people initiatives.
• Manage key HR functions including talent acquisition, onboarding, employee relations, compensation, benefits, performance management, learning and development, and employee records.
• Support workforce planning, retention, employee engagement, and organizational effectiveness initiatives.
• Provide practical guidance to managers regarding performance, employee relations, policies, and employment matters.
• Develop clear and engaging employee communications around HR programs, organizational initiatives, benefits, policies, and workplace updates.
• Maintain accurate, confidential, and compliant employee records and HR systems.
• Help ensure compliance with applicable federal, state, and local employment requirements.
• Manage relationships with external HR, benefits, technology, and other people-related vendors, including service agreements and contract renewals.
• Partner with leadership on special projects, organizational change, and strategic people initiatives.
• Analyze HR trends and data to identify opportunities to improve processes, employee experience, compliance, and operational efficiency.
• Provide HR support across multiple locations and, where needed, international operations.

WHAT YOU BRING

We are looking for a well-rounded HR professional who understands both the people side and business side of HR.

Ideal experience includes:

• 5+ years of progressive, broad-based Human Resources experience.
• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Organizational Development, or a related discipline preferred. Equivalent relevant experience will also be considered.
• Experience across employee relations, talent acquisition, performance management, compensation and benefits, HR compliance, policy administration, and employee engagement.
• Experience managing or supporting the complete employee lifecycle.
• Strong working knowledge of employment laws, HR practices, and compliance requirements.
• Experience developing, implementing, and improving HR policies and programs.
• Hands-on experience with HRIS/HRMS platforms, employee data, reporting, and records management.
• Experience supporting employees across multiple locations, including onsite and remote populations.
• Exposure to regional or international HR operations is highly valued.
• Experience managing outside vendors, service providers, and contract relationships.
• Professional HR certification such as SHRM-CP, SHRM-SCP, PHR, or SPHR is a plus.
• Bilingual English/Spanish capabilities required.

WHO YOU ARE

Strategic, but Hands-On

You can see the bigger organizational picture while still being willing to roll up your sleeves and handle the day-to-day realities of HR.

Trusted & Approachable

You build credibility with employees and leadership through discretion, sound judgment, responsiveness, and genuine relationship-building.

Business-Minded

You understand that great HR is not HR for HR's sake. You connect people programs and decisions to operational priorities and business outcomes.

Culture & Engagement Focused

You care about creating an environment where people can perform, collaborate, develop, and feel connected to the organization.

Comfortable with Change

You operate effectively in an evolving environment, helping leaders and employees navigate new priorities, processes, and organizational change.

Strong Communicator

You can make complicated HR issues understandable, navigate difficult conversations professionally, and communicate confidently with employees at all levels.

Data-Informed Problem Solver

You use HR data, trends, business context, and critical thinking to identify issues, recommend solutions, and improve the employee experience.

WORK ENVIRONMENT

This is a hybrid position designed for someone who values both flexibility and regular in-person collaboration.

Travel is not expected to be a significant component of the position, although occasional travel may be required based on business needs.

Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States and able to satisfy applicable employment verification requirements. A valid passport is preferred should future international travel be required.
