About the Role
We're looking for a People & Culture Manager to own our full people function and build an environment that's both buttoned-up and genuinely enjoyable to work in. This is a rare "tight and fun" HR role: you'll keep us compliant and airtight on the back end while shaping a culture people actually want to be part of. You'll lead performance, talent acquisition, employee relations, and the overall employee experience, and manage a team while you do it.
If you believe great HR is equal parts rigor and heart, this one's for you.
What You'll Do
Culture & Employee Experience
Serve as the driving force behind a positive, engaging company culture
Design and lead initiatives that boost engagement, retention, and day-to-day employee experience
Be a trusted, approachable point of contact for the team
Performance Management
Overhaul and elevate our performance review process end to end
Rebuild our PIP (Performance Improvement Plan) framework so it's fair, effective, and legally sound
Coach managers on delivering feedback and running productive review cycles
Talent Acquisition
Lead full-cycle recruiting and overall TA strategy
Manage and support our recruiter based in the Philippines, and help scale our sourcing and hiring efforts
Partner with hiring managers to keep pipelines strong and time-to-fill low
Employee Relations & Compliance
Handle employee complaints, investigations, and relations issues with discretion and consistency
Keep the organization compliant with all applicable employment laws and regulations
Maintain clean, audit-ready documentation and HR processes
HR Operations & Systems
Own and optimize our HRIS in ADP (payroll, records, reporting, workflows)
Streamline HR operations for accuracy and efficiency
Team Leadership
Manage, mentor, and develop a small HR/People team
What We're Looking For
5+ years of progressive HR experience, including some leadership or team management
Hands-on experience with ADP (Workforce Now a strong plus)
Proven track record improving performance reviews and PIP processes
Full-cycle recruiting / TA experience; comfort managing or partnering with offshore recruiters (Philippines experience a plus)
Strong grounding in HR compliance, employee relations, and handling complaints/investigations
A culture-builder at heart, someone who can balance "tight, compliant HR" with a warm, human, fun approach
