Head of People and Culture

Build the People & Culture function at a global performance brand.

At Prima Loft, we believe warmth, performance, and responsibility can go

hand in hand.

For more than 40 years, Prima Loft has been developing innovative insulation and performance technologies that help people stay warm, dry, comfortable, and protected in the outdoors and beyond. Our technologies are trusted by leading brands around the world, and our commitment to performance and sustainability continues to shape what we do.

Now, we're looking for someone who can help shape how our people and culture evolve alongside our business.

As our first dedicated People & Culture Manager, you'll have a rare opportunity to build the foundation of our global People function from the ground up. Working directly with the Executive Director and leadership team, you'll establish the strategies, programs, systems, and practices that enable our approximately 70 employees around the world to do their best work and grow with the company.

We're looking for a pragmatic, highly capable HR professional who can operate equally well at the strategic and hands-on levels.

One day, you might be advising the leadership team on organizational design, talent strategy, or compensation. Next, you might be improving our onboarding process, partnering with Finance on payroll, helping a manager navigate an employee issue, or implementing a new HR system.

You will partner with leaders across our global organization to create an employee experience that reflects who we are, supports our values, develops our people, and enables the organization to perform at its best.

• Partner with the Executive Director and leadership team to create, evolve, and implement a Global People & Culture Framework aligned with Prima Loft's strategy, values, and growth objectives.
• Serve as a trusted advisor to senior leaders on organizational development, workforce planning, organization design, talent management, employee relations, performance, and engagement.
• Identify opportunities to strengthen organizational capability and continuously improve the employee experience.
• Bring our values to life through the way we hire, develop, recognize, communicate with, and support our people.
• Act as a culture carrier and role model for Prima Loft's brand and values.

• Design and implement a consistent employee experience across the full employee lifecycle—from recruitment and onboarding through development, career growth, and offboarding.
• Establish processes for onboarding, offboarding, promotions, transfers, compensation changes, and other employee lifecycle events.
• Develop an employee listening and engagement approach that provides meaningful insights and translates feedback into action.
• Partner with leaders to strengthen team effectiveness, employee engagement, and retention.

• Build and continuously improve Prima Loft's global talent acquisition strategy and processes.
• Partner with hiring managers to identify talent needs, define roles, and attract exceptional candidates.
• Establish a consistent onboarding experience across our global offices.
• Create practical, scalable policies and procedures that reflect our culture while complying with employment laws and regulations in each location where we operate.
• Establish strong HR documentation, reporting, and data practices.
• Maintain and regularly update the employee handbook to reflect current employment laws, company policies, and organizational practices, ensuring policies are clearly communicated to all employees, consistently applied, and appropriately upheld across the organization.

• Review and evolve Prima Loft's short- and long-term, fixed and flexible Total Rewards programs.
• Partner with Finance and leadership on annual compensation planning, salary reviews, promotions, and workforce planning.
• Benchmark our offerings and proactively identify opportunities to strengthen our employee value proposition.

• Partner with Finance to manage relationships with external HR, payroll, benefits, legal, and other People-related partners.
• Stay current on employment legislation and HR best practices across our global locations.
• Provide thoughtful, timely support to employees and managers on HR and employee relations matters.
• Ensure the organization has the People infrastructure and compliance foundation necessary to scale.
