• Build scalable processes and documentation for every stage of the employee lifecycle—onboarding, role changes, compliance, and offboarding
• Develop reporting and analytics to support workforce planning and business decision-making

Policy & Compliance Management
• Draft and enforce policies, handbooks, and procedures that ensure legal compliance while aligning with company values
• Oversee risk management and compliance efforts across multi-state operations
• Lead internal audits, documentation, and compliance reviews as needed

• Build and deploy frameworks for manager training, performance reviews, and leadership coaching
• Partner with department heads to ensure alignment of HR strategy with business goals

Employee Relations & Culture Support
• Serve as the point of contact for escalated employee relations issues, including investigations, disciplinary actions, and conflict resolution
• Develop fair, consistent protocols for documentation and resolution of employee concerns
• Drive initiatives that reinforce a strong, values-based culture across all locations

What We’re Looking For
• 7+ years of progressive HR experience, including at least 3 years in a senior HR leadership role
• Demonstrated success building people systems and HR infrastructure within a fast-growing, field-based organization (construction, remodeling, or trades strongly preferred)
• Expertise in employee relations, compliance, policy creation, and HR technology
• Excellent interpersonal and leadership skills with a balance of strategic and hands-on execution
• Multi-state experience and familiarity with applicable labor laws

Preferred Qualifications
• SHRM-CP, SHRM-SCP, PHR, or SPHR certification
• Experience in founder-led or private, high-growth companies
• Proficiency with platforms such as BambooHR, Paycom, or similar
