This is a strategic and hands-on leadership role, owning Talent Acquisition, HR Operations, Employee Relations, Total Rewards, Payroll & Benefits, Workers' Compensation, Compliance, and Culture.

- Own full-cycle talent acquisition, onboarding and workforce planning.
- Lead performance management, engagement and succession planning.
- Provide strategic oversight of employee relations and workplace investigations.

- Steward Kiva's culture through onboarding, recognition, and change management.
- 8+ years of progressive HR/People Operations experience, including team leadership.
- Proven experience leading People Operations in a multi-entity, multi-state organization.
- Experience owning a talent acquisition function; M&A/integration experience strongly preferred.
- Deep knowledge of California employment law and working knowledge of multi-state requirements.
