Why You’ll Love This Role
Join a fast-growing, entrepreneurial sales organization that is big enough to offer stability yet small enough for your ideas to shape the company’s future. Leadership maintains an open-door policy and a “win the right way” attitude - if your mom wouldn’t approve, we don’t do it. Expect the energy of a start-up, the ethics of a trusted brand, and direct access to decision-makers who value fresh thinking.

- Performance & development leader – drive goal-setting, feedback, and career-pathing processes that raise the bar
- Compliance guardian across multiple states, maintaining policies, handbooks, and training that meet evolving regulations
- Comp & bonus collaborator – partner with Finance on compensation planning and quarterly bonus payouts (benefits managed by a separate team)
- Data-driven decision maker – build dashboards that translate HR metrics into business insight
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in HR, Business, or related discipline
- Strong command of federal & multi-state labor laws and HR best practices
