ABOUT NATURESCAPE

Naturescape is a family-owned company that is 100% committed to making our customers happy with our lawn and landscape care. Since our humble beginnings in Appleton, WI in 1986, we have been committed to providing the highest quality service, guaranteeing satisfaction, and offering very affordable prices. Because of these continued commitments, we have grown and now have 38 locations around the Midwest and South.

We know that we owe this success to our outstanding team. We care about employee satisfaction and want you to love your job. Here at Naturescape, we have a team culture where management is always willing to train and take the time to help.

For the benefit of our employees, customers, and anyone who interacts with Naturescape, we are proud to be a drug-free workplace and provide safe and healthy working conditions at all of our branches.

YOUR ROLE AS OUR HR MANAGER

As our HR Manager, you are more than just an administrator; you are a strategic partner. Reporting directly to the Executive VP, you will lead and be part of a dedicated three-person team to ensure Naturescape remains a place where people love to work. This role is a dynamic blend of high-level strategy (15%), team leadership (40%), and hands-on execution (45%), giving you the unique opportunity to both design the vision and see it through to completion.

People & Culture Leadership

You aren't here to reinvent our culture, but to champion the successful foundation we have built over the past four decades. You will act as the gatekeeper for the Naturescape "family" feel, ensuring our core values are woven into every interaction: Humility, Honesty & Integrity, Make It Happen, High Standards, Happy Customers, Efficiency, and Happy & Successful Employees. While our branches handle their own day-to-day hiring, you serve as their mentor and coach. You'll help them find and keep the best talent by:

• Leading Executive Hiring: Personally managing the recruitment of Branch Managers and corporate leadership to ensure they align with our core values.
• Overseeing Performance Management: Coaching our managers to ensure they are performing effective, compliant corrective conversations and maintaining healthy team processes like monthly 1-1 meetings.
• Driving Effectiveness: Auditing hiring metrics like "Time to First Contact" to help branches move faster and win the best candidates.
• Empowering Through Training: Leading a weekly one-hour HR orientation for new hires and providing high-level training for our management team.
• Cultivating Retention: Identifying trends and implementing creative solutions to keep our teams happy, engaged, and successful for the long haul.

HR Operations & Compliance

You ensure the "engine" of the company runs smoothly so our employees can focus on what they do best. Alongside your HR Assistant and Admin, you will oversee the vital functions that provide our team with security and peace of mind:

• Payroll & Benefits: Ensuring total accuracy in our bi-weekly ADP payroll and managing our robust benefits packages (including our 200% 401k match!).
• Compliance: Navigating the essentials of FMLA, ACA, Workers' Compensation, and other legal, liability, and reporting requirements with care.
• Community Building: Organizing our Annual Company Picnic, a highlight of the year that brings our Naturescape family together.

Systems Development & Strategic Support

You won't just manage existing systems-you'll have a seat at the table to improve them. You will develop and collaborate on systems such as compensation, policy, and employment processes. Your regular and valued strategic input during executive meetings will directly shape the future of our 35 locations. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with our in-house software development team to create custom solutions that streamline and simplify HR administration.

The Bottom Line: You get the opportunity to build and run modern HR systems & processes, the authority to lead a talented team, and the influence to support the executive direction of a stable, established company with an exceptional history and a continued desire for future growth.
