Senior HR Manager

The Opportunity

Amplēo HR is seeking an experienced HR professional to join our team as an HR Partner (Senior Manager). You'll serve as a senior embedded HR lead across a portfolio of client organizations, bringing both strategic perspective and hands‑on execution to every engagement.

At this level, clients rely on you as their primary HR voice. You operate with a high degree of autonomy, anticipate what your clients need before they ask, and bring enough breadth to handle whatever lands in your inbox on any given day.

You'll partner with a Deal Partner for strategic alignment and have full access to the Amplēo Toolbox of proprietary frameworks, templates, and playbooks.

This role is for someone who genuinely wants to be a consultant, not an in‑house HR leader at one company. You'll thrive on variety, autonomy, and the pace that comes with serving several clients t importantly, you'll embody Amplēo's core operating principle: a consultant the CEO never has to manage.

Every Amplēo consultant, at every level, is evaluated against a single distinction: are we an investment, or are we an expense?

An investment finds the work before being asked, proposes solutions to risks the client hasn't noticed, treats a silent inbox as a signal to dig deeper, and presents ready‑to‑sign work rather than new questions. The CEO never has to manage the HR function.

An expense waits for assignments, answers only the questions asked, treats a quiet client as  everything is fine , and hands tasks back for the client to review and approve.

Investments don't get cut. Expenses do. Every responsibility below assumes you are operating as an investment, regardless of which level you join at.

You are a seasoned HR professional who knows how to operate in the gray. You're comfortable stepping into environments that are evolving, sometimes unstructured, and you don't need everything to be perfectly defined to move forward. You use strong judgment and HR instincts to assess situations quickly, prioritize what matters most, and take action.

You are highly organized and detail‑oriented, with the ability to manage multiple clients and work streams at once without letting anything slip. You can switch context quickly and seamlessly, moving from strategy to execution to employee issues without missing a beat. You understand that no positional authority comes with this role, and you know how to build influence through trust, expertise, and results.

You are a doer. You don't just advise, you execute. You take ownership of outcomes, follow through, and make things happen without needing to be chased down. You balance speed with thoughtfulness and understand when to move quickly and when to slow down and get it right.

You bring a client‑first mindset to everything you do. You build trust quickly, communicate clearly, and operate as a true partner to business leaders. You understand that great HR is not about policies and process for their own sake, but about enabling the business to run better.

You are adaptable and resourceful. You can shift between strategic thinking and hands‑on execution with ease, and you're energized by the opportunity to build, fix, and improve. You're comfortable navigating competing priorities and making decisions without perfect information.

On any given day, you might be building a compensation structure for one client while navigating a sensitive employee relations issue for another. You manage complexity across your portfolio without letting anything slip, and you rarely need to be told what to do next.

You own the full HR function across your client portfolio with a high degree of autonomy. You bring both the…
