Are you an experienced HR professional ready to step into a high-impact, strategic role with room to grow? This is an exciting opportunity to join a successful mid-sized company as their first-ever HR Manager, leading critical people initiatives and building systems that will shape the organization’s future.

We're seeking a dynamic HR generalist who thrives in building processes from scratch and is excited about long-term growth into senior HR leadership.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Create and launch the company’s first performance management framework
• Be a key driver of succession planning, pay-for-performance, and internal hiring
• Work closely with executive leadership in a high-visibility role
• Influence strategy in a growing organization poised to double in size within five years
• Opportunity to grow into an HR Director role with international scope

What You’ll Own

• Develop and implement the organization’s performance review and pay structure
• Lead succession planning and support compensation decision-making
• Handle corporate recruiting for internal full-time roles (entry through mid-level)
• Manage the full employee lifecycle: onboarding, offboarding, policy compliance, and more
• Maintain HR systems and ensure accuracy across platforms

Note: This is an individual contributor role with strategic oversight—no direct reports, but it is a managerial level.

What You Bring

• 5–7 years of HR generalist experience, preferably in a mid-sized, growth-stage company
• Proven ability to design and manage performance management processes
• Experience in corporate recruiting (in-house or agency background welcome)
• Strong communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills
• A proactive, builder’s mindset with high potential for upward mobility

Compensation & Culture

• Competitive base salary plus bonus and incentives
• Fully onsite role—be a key presence in the leadership circle
• Professional growth path into HR leadership roles
• Join a stable, forward-moving business with a strong commitment to internal development
