Job description

About 8Fleet

8Fleet is hiring! 8Fleet is a rapidly growing Los Angeles–based technology and logistics company building the operational infrastructure for autonomous and non-autonomous rideshare fleets. As we expand into new markets, we're building a People function that can scale with us. We're searching for a passionate Regional Human Resources Manager to help lead the way.

About the Role

We're looking for a Regional HR Manager who pairs strong operational instincts with the ability to coach, influence, and shape teams at scale. You'll partner closely with site and regional leaders to support a large, fast-paced, non-exempt workforce — driving consistency, accountability, and a great employee experience across locations.

This role sits at the intersection of frontline operations and People strategy: manager enablement, org planning, performance coaching, and employee relations, all while making sure our People systems and policies run smoothly across sites. It's a strong fit if you like solving operational problems, building trust with frontline leaders, and bringing data and process discipline to people challenges.

Key Responsibilities

Multi-Location Workforce Support

• Partner with site managers and regional leaders on workforce planning, driver retention, and team performance.

• Drive consistent People practices, policies, and manager behaviors across all sites.

• Provide hands-on support for non-exempt workforce needs — scheduling, attendance, and performance issues.

• Support the launch and scale of new markets, ensuring HR infrastructure is in place from day one.

• Build, monitor, and report on core people metrics (turnover, attendance, engagement, corrective actions) and drive targeted improvements.

Employee Relations & Compliance

• Own first-line employee relations matters with empathy and operational clarity, escalating when needed.

• Support documentation, investigations, corrective actions, and policy interpretation.

• Maintain compliance with wage-and-hour regulations, break rules, scheduling laws, and labor requirements across multiple states.

People Operations Partnership

• Collaborate with People Ops on onboarding, data accuracy, HRIS workflows, leave management, and payroll alignment.

• Surface workforce trends and insights to improve systems and processes.

• Help identify and roll out People tools that improve clarity, speed, and accuracy across the org.

Qualifications

• 4+ years as a People Partner or HR Manager, ideally supporting large non-exempt teams in a fast-paced startup environment.

• Strong operational instincts and proven experience supporting multi-location environments.

• Ability to build process and maintain data accuracy that holds up as the company scales.

• Experience coaching frontline and mid-level managers.

• Sound judgment and clear documentation habits when handling employee relations issues.

• Deep knowledge of wage-and-hour laws, attendance policies, and labor compliance.

• Excellent communicator, able to build trust quickly across all levels of the org.
