Global Senior HR Director, Flexible Location (US)

A leader in biotechnology, this midsized public company has a broad global footprint and is enjoying growth around the world. The leadership team has robust international experience and brings this to bear in this thriving organization. The company is both purpose and values driven and has a consistently innovative, inclusive, and collaborative culture. From an HR perspective, the business is well-supported by a full CoE structure and a multi-local team of agile business partners.

This role reports to the CHRO and while location is flexible, there is a strong preference for Midwest or Southeast. This is a true business partnering opportunity, responsible for running HR for a pivotal division of the business globally. The position manages a team. There is a significant element of building as well as change and transformation. This is a hands-on role which interacts closely with senior stakeholders and employees of all levels.

A background in life sciences or agriculture will be necessary for this role, including recent experience in FDA regulated environments. The ideal candidate would have worked closely with R&D teams and should be naturally curious and enjoy dealing with scientific employee groups. International/global exposure working cross culturally is a ‘must have’. Also needed will be recent experience driving transformation, change, and innovation on a global level. While this position requires exceptional HR partnering expertise, some depth in Talent would be helpful (e.g., work experience in a talent-specialized position). We are seeking a ‘player/coach’ who is hands-on and adept at executing through others.

A fun midsized company with an impressive leadership team. The culture is down-to-earth and the business is growing and doing well. A great opportunity for the right person to build a long-term career.

Like all midsized companies, there are growing pains and applicants should not expect large company infrastructure. You need to be hands-on and non-hierarchical to do well here.
