Job description

We do the work, so our clients can focus on building their business.

Humani HR is a primarily remote-first organization; however, HR Business Partners and Generalists are expected to attend client visits periodically (typically up to 15% of the time, but could be more frequent), as well as company events. These onsite requirements may be local or, on occasion, outside your state of residence or internationally. To learn more about us and our team, visit our website.

• Manage multiple client accounts with tailored, high‑impact solutions
• Build strong, lasting client relationships that drive Humani’s continued success

What you bring:

• 7+ years of progressive, client-facing HR experience (a degree in HR and/or professional HR designation is highly desired)
• Excellent knowledge of U.S. employment law across multiple states (NY & CA preferred)
• Strong experience in managing and overseeing payroll operations/and or Union experience is strongly preferred
• Robust business acumen with proven ability to translate business needs into actionable HR objectives
• Exceptional communication, organization, and problem‑solving and needs analysis skills
• Ability to thrive in fast‑changing, ambiguous environments

Why Humani:

• $80K–$100K base + performance bonus (10–25%+)
• 4 weeks' vacation + wellness days
