You will own the annual performance and compensation review, benefits administration, total rewards infrastructure, HR policies, and employee experience such as onboarding experience and engagement.

We believe our policies, pay structure and benefits are a reflection of our culture. Rolling out a policy or a performance cycle can be purely operational: stating the facts clearly and moving on. We are looking for someone who goes further, a cultural ambassador within the HR who brings the values behind each program to life.

  3. Benefits administration Administer health, welfare and retirement plans; lead annual open enrollment, carrier and broker coordination, and plan renewals. Manage vendor SLAs, escalations and invoice reconciliation. Coordinate benefits plan filings and notices (e.g., ACA reporting, COBRA) with the vendor and broker.
  4. HR policies Own HR policies including drafting, updating and maintaining the employee handbook and HR policies (compensation, leave, time off, expenses, remote work etc). Partner with Legal on policy review and communicate changes clearly to employees and leaders. Go beyond the facts when presenting policies, performance and pay programs: use case studies and real examples to show the culture and values behind them.
  5. Employee experience & culture Design and deliver new-hire onboarding covering business, products, mission and culture; coordinate leader speakers and measure new-hire experience. Design and run the company-wide engagement survey; analyze results, share insights with leadership, and track action plans to completion.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
