  • Total rewards and benefits. In partnership with Director Global Total Rewards, own the US benefits strategy end-to-end, from annual reviews and vendor partnerships to leading the 401(k) fiduciary committee. Keep our total rewards competitive, compliant, and cost-efficient.
  • M&A integration. Play a central role in integrating acquired businesses and take ownership of HR support for those populations as we bring the teams together.
  • Policy and program development. Build the policies and programs that support our workforce from employee relations, benefits, and total rewards to leaves, accommodations, career development, and performance management. Own the annual employee handbook review, and watch the market to bring proactive, competitive solutions to the table.
  • HR operations and systems. Run the North America HR function day to day with a continuous-improvement mindset, and use HR technology, analytics, and AI to drive scale, consistency, and efficiency.
  • Employee relations and compliance. Handle sensitive, high-stakes people matters with a fair and steady hand. Keep us ahead of applicable US and Canadian employment laws and regulations and translate regulatory change into practical policy.

  • 10+ years of work experience in HR, with real depth across employee relations, total rewards, and organizational effectiveness.

  • Interpersonal and relationship skills. Strong leadership and collaboration skills, with a track record of building trust across diverse groups and stakeholders at every level of the organization.
  • Organization and project management. You run complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives from start to finish, with the problem-solving skills to work across functions and keep things moving.
  • Executive presence and communication. Comfortable speaking in small and large forums, with excellent presentation, facilitation, and persuasive writing skills.
  • Trusted-advisor presence. You influence senior leaders, challenge when it matters, and stay the fair, steady voice in the room.
  • HR technology and AI fluency. Experience using HR systems, analytics, and AI to drive scale and efficiency.
  • Bias for action. You move fast, juggle competing priorities, and thrive in a lean, collaborative, all-hands environment.
