About the Opportunity

We’re working with a growing, innovation-focused life sciences organization supporting cutting-edge work in advanced therapeutics. With a collaborative, highly technical team and a strong growth trajectory, this is an opportunity to step into a high-impact HR leadership role where your contributions will be immediately visible.

This position offers the chance to own the entire HR function within a small, dynamic environment. You’ll partner closely with leadership while also having the autonomy to build structure, improve processes, and support a team of highly skilled professionals.

The Role

This is a standalone HR role responsible for both strategic initiatives and day-to-day HR operations. You’ll act as a trusted partner to leadership, helping guide hiring, performance management, and organizational development while ensuring compliance and consistency across the business.

A PEO is in place to support payroll, benefits, and certain administrative functions, allowing you to focus on higher-value HR work and organizational effectiveness.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support full-cycle recruiting efforts in partnership with hiring managers

  • Develop workforce planning strategies to support growth

  • Build and refine onboarding and offboarding processes

  • Establish and improve HR policies, procedures, and employee programs

  • Support and coach managers on performance management, feedback, and employee development

  • Drive performance review processes and goal-setting initiatives

  • Handle employee relations matters, including investigations and conflict resolution

  • Ensure compliance with federal and state employment laws and HR best practices

  • Maintain HR records and partner with a PEO on benefits, payroll, and compliance

Qualifications

  • 7–10+ years of progressive HR experience

  • Experience operating as a solo or lead HR professional in a small to mid-sized organization

  • Proven ability to build or enhance HR infrastructure (policies, frameworks, processes)

  • Strong employee relations background and sound judgment

  • Ability to build credibility with technical or highly specialized teams

  • Experience working with a PEO environment is a plus
