HR Manager
Location: Austin, TX (Onsite)
Full-time | Modern Financial Institution | Early 2026 Start
Austin has plenty of junior HR roles, but very few that open the door to a career inside regulated finance without needing big-bank experience. If you have a few years of HR or people operations experience and you want a position that gives you real ownership and exposure to a serious industry, this is the opportunity you have been waiting for.
You will be the primary HR point of contact for the Austin office of a fast-growing financial institution that combines modern technology with the discipline of a regulated environment. The company already has strong HR structures in place, and your focus will be the day-to-day operations that keep the local team supported and running smoothly.
This is the ideal role for someone early in their career who wants to break out of a junior HR track and step into a position with visibility, responsibility and growth potential inside financial services.
Twelve10 has been asked to begin screening ahead of a January start.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
You will gain firsthand experience inside a regulated financial environment without needing to come from a Wall Street background. The company is growing, the leadership team is accessible and the Austin office needs a reliable HR operator who enjoys being involved in the daily rhythm of the business.
Your role will focus on hands-on people operations, employee support, onboarding, coordination and keeping the local team connected and informed. You will work closely with the COO, the executive assistant and senior leadership, giving you exposure and visibility that is rare at this stage of your career.
People with experience in tech, fintech or fast-paced environments tend to excel here, although those backgrounds are helpful rather than mandatory.
