Job description

Position: Full-Time, Senior Manager of Human Resources.

Location: North Dallas, TX

Compensation: $125,000 base salary

A growing, privately held company in North Dallas is looking for a hands‑on Senior Manager of Human Resources to lead the full HR function.

This is a true HR department‑of‑one role for someone who enjoys both the strategic and operational sides of HR. You’ll own the full employee lifecycle, support employees and leaders directly, and help build the HR infrastructure needed as the organization continues to grow.

We’re looking for someone who is highly service‑oriented, approachable, practical, and comfortable rolling up their sleeves. One day you may be working through payroll or benefits questions, and the next you may be coaching a leader, managing an employee relations issue, or helping leadership think through organizational growth.

What You’ll Own

• Full employee lifecycle from hiring and onboarding through offboarding
• Payroll administration and oversight
• Benefits administration and open enrollment
• Employee relations and performance management
• Recruiting and hiring support
• Compensation and employee changes
• HR policies, compliance, and employee documentation
• HR systems and employee records
• Leadership coaching and day‑to‑day HR guidance
• Employee engagement and retention initiatives
• Development of HR processes and programs that can scale with the organization
• Workforce planning and broader people strategy as the company grows

What We’re Looking For

• 7+ years of progressive HR experience
• Strong HR generalist background with experience across payroll, benefits, employee relations, compliance, and recruiting
• Experience working in a small or mid‑sized organization where you have owned multiple areas of HR
• Comfortable being the primary HR resource for employees and leadership
• Strong judgment and ability to manage sensitive employee matters
• Highly organized, responsive, and service‑oriented
• Able to operate independently without a large HR team or infrastructure
• Strategic enough to help the organization scale, but hands‑on enough to manage the day‑to‑day details
• Strong communication and relationship‑building skills

The Ideal Candidate

You’re an experienced HR leader who understands that in a smaller organization, being strategic and being hands‑on are not mutually exclusive.

You enjoy being close to the employees and the business. You’re comfortable answering a benefits question, resolving a payroll issue, coaching a manager through performance concerns, and then sitting down with leadership to discuss how the organization should evolve as it grows.

You’re resourceful, practical, and focused on providing a high level of service while building strong, scalable HR practices.
