HR Director

BrightPath
New Hope, MN Full Time
POSTED ON 4/25/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/24/2026
We’re hiring a Human Resources Director to lead and scale the people function in a growing behavioral health organization.

This is a high-impact role for a leader who understands that in human services, people systems, compliance, and staffing reliability directly impact client safety.

We are an EOS-run organization, so this role requires both strategic leadership and the ability to drive accountability through clear structure and execution.

What You’ll Own

  • Full HR leadership across Talent Acquisition, HR operations, and employee relations
  • Building and optimizing high-volume specialized recruiting pipelines (clinical direct care)
  • Ensuring HR practices align with 245D regulations, licensing standards, and audit readiness
  • Developing systems for performance management, documentation quality, and corrective action
  • Workforce planning tied to staffing ratios, program needs, and growth
  • Leading and strengthening the people component of EOS

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven progression through Talent Acquisition → HR Generalist → HR Leadership
  • Strong experience in behavioral health, human services, or healthcare
  • Deep understanding of operating in a regulated environment (245D preferred)
  • Experience with:
  • Background studies (NETStudy) and clearance processes
  • MVR requirements and workforce eligibility standards
  • Compliance-driven documentation and audit expectations
  • Track record of improving recruiting outcomes, retention, and accountability systems
  • Experience supporting multi-site, frontline-heavy operations

EOS Leadership Expectations

  • Facilitate and strengthen the People Component across the organization
  • Support leaders in using People Analyzer, Scorecards, and Rocks effectively
  • Drive clarity on right people, right seats
  • Coach leaders to deliver clear, values-based feedback and accountability
  • Participate in and help lead Level 10 (L10) meetings

What Matters In This Role

  • Staffing is not just an HR metric—it is directly tied to client safety and service quality
  • Compliance is operational—not theoretical—and must show up in documentation and daily execution
  • HR must balance people-first leadership with clear expectations and accountability
  • Systems must be scalable, consistent, and aligned with both regulatory and operational demands

This Role Is a Strong Fit For Someone Who

  • Has built and fixed HR systems in complex environments
  • Is comfortable holding leaders accountable—not just supporting them
  • Can move between strategy and hands-on problem solving
  • Understands that in this field, execution and consistency matter as much as intent
