    Human Resources Director

    ALIGN Executive Search is partnering with a fast-growing organization to find a strategic and experienced Human Resources Director to lead HR operations across multiple locations. This is a high-impact role responsible for aligning HR practices with business objectives, improving people processes, and supporting organizational growth.

    Why This Role Stands Out:

    • Executive-level role with influence across departments
    • Opportunity to standardize and elevate HR operations at scale
    • Hands-on leadership in a collaborative, mission-driven environment

    Key Responsibilities

    Strategic HR Leadership:

    • Partner with executive leadership to turn business goals into actionable HR strategies
    • Identify and address workforce challenges such as staffing, retention, and compliance
    • Standardize HR operations and policies across multi-site environments

    Talent Development & Organizational Growth:

    • Build and lead training programs using modern delivery methods
    • Support talent development, governance, and performance metrics
    • Drive HR integrations for acquisitions and support smooth data migrations
    • Analyze HR data and present actionable insights

    Employee Relations & Compliance:

    • Advise managers on performance, coaching, and development
    • Resolve complex employee relations issues in compliance with employment laws (HIPAA, OSHA, FLSA, FMLA, ADA)
    • Promote a culture of compliance, respect, and ethics
    • Oversee internal audits and maintain accurate records

    Total Rewards & Benefits:

    • Develop and manage compensation structures and incentive plans
    • Oversee benefits administration including health, dental, vision, retirement, and payroll
    • Align career pathing and total rewards with industry benchmarks

    Additional Duties:

    • Support other HR-related responsibilities as needed — flexibility and adaptability are key

    What You Need to Qualify:

    • Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Management, or related field
    • 10+ years of experience as a senior HR business partner
    • 3+ years leading HR teams
    • Strong knowledge of employment laws and HR best practices
    • Experience with HR process transformation and automation
    • Proficient in Microsoft Office, especially Excel and PowerPoint
    • Strong public speaking, communication, and facilitation skills
    • Business mindset with the ability to link HR strategy to operations
    • Hands-on, solution-focused approach

    Preferred:

    • SPHR or SHRM-CP certification
    • Familiarity with HRIS platforms like Rippling, and tools such as Microsoft 365, Canva, and Google Docs
