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.

- 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
- Excellent communication and coaching skills
Salary : $90,000 - $120,000
