Role OverviewWe're looking for a Director of Human Resources to lead our People function. Reporting to the VP, Finance and Accounting, you'll own the day-to-day HR portfolio - talent, culture, total rewards, compliance and HR operations, and partner closely with the executive team. This is a hands-on leadership role in a lean, fast-moving fintech/proptech environment.
What You Will Do
Execute the people strategy in partnership with the executive team, aligned to company goals and headcount plans. Champion company culture and employee experience; design and run programs across onboarding, engagement and recognition. Support the recruiting function (e.g., interview process design, onboarding, offer/comp alignment).
Why It Might Be a Fit
The person who takes this role will shape how the People function grows from here. You'll work alongside a dedicated recruiting resource, an established HRIS and benefits infrastructure and a Finance and Legal team that is already engaged on headcount planning, compensation and employment matters.
