Strategic Human Resources | Head of HR | HR Ops | Expert Recruiter | Open to FTE or W2/1099
Boise, Idaho, United States
HR operations is a rigorous operational discipline, not an emotional cost center.
Over the past 18+ years, I have built and scaled compliant infrastructure and high-performing teams across distinct market tiers:
Small-to-Mid-Sized Businesses (Seed to Series C & Mid-Market): Operating as a hands-on Head of HR managing foundational HR operations, full-cycle technical & non-tech talent acquisition, payroll/tech stack overhauls, and multi-state compliance.
Global Enterprise Environments: Focused strictly on steering large-scale, cross-border Talent Acquisition programs and managing complex global recruitment delivery teams (10,000+ staff).
My focus is entirely on removing administrative drag, shielding businesses from multi-state compliance landmines, and optimizing fragmented payroll and recruiting systems.
THE OPERATIONAL APPROACH:
Infrastructure & Compliance Turnarounds: I step into messy, high-growth environments to audit regulatory compliance gaps, resolve complex Employee Relations cases, and establish standardized structures for FMLA and ADA accommodations.
Talent Acquisition Execution: I execute end-to-end recruitment loops for high-stakes roles (Engineering, Product, Data, GTM, and Corporate Ops) using tech-enabled pipelines to compress time-to-fill metrics.
Manager Accountability: I partner with executive teams to coach managers to handle performance and personnel challenges directly, driving immediate workforce productivity.
AVAILABILITY & ENGAGEMENT PARAMETERS:
Corporate Growth (FTE): Available for permanent leadership roles as a business-minded Head of HR or HR Director for scaling mid-market organizations.
Expert Contract Recruiting (1099/W2): Available for immediate-start, high-volume sourcing and full-cycle technical contract recruiting assignments with zero ramp-up time.
CORE EXPERTISE:
Employment Law & Multi-State Compliance | Employee Relations Case Management | FMLA & ADA Administration | HRIS & PEO Migrations | Compensation Architecture | Full-Cycle Tech & Non-Tech Talent Acquisition | Workflow Automation | Talent Management Assessments (DISC, Predictive Index, CliftonStrengths)
