Are you a smart, proactive problem-solver who thrives on building great workplaces?

At Career TEAM, we're looking for an HR Manager who brings both strategy and heart — someone who can lead with empathy, think analytically, and drive innovation across our people operations. This is a high-impact, hands-on role where you'll help shape the employee experience and streamline HR operations. This is more than an HR role — it's your chance to shape the culture, influence strategy, and make an impact on a mission-driven company that's changing lives every day.

You'll be an integral part of HR operations, with a special focus on Career TEAM's North Central Texas operations in the following counties: Collin, Denton, Ellis, Erath, Hood, Hunt, Johnson, Kaufman, Navarro, Palo Pinto, Parker, Rockwall, Somervell, and Wise. This hybrid role is primarily remote, with periodic travel to our local offices in the North Central Texas region.

What You'll Do

• Support People & Operations: Partner closely with the VP of HR and regional leadership to ensure smooth, compliant, and employee-friendly HR operations.
• Be the go-to HR expert: Guide our HR Generalists, managers, and employees through complex HR issues, investigations, accommodations, and policy interpretation.
• Drive Engagement: Implement initiatives that strengthen morale, retention, and teamwork across locations.
• Maintain Compliance: Ensure adherence to federal, state, and local employment laws and internal policies.
• Streamline Processes: Use HR systems and data to simplify workflows, identify gaps, and recommend improvements.
• Coach & Communicate: Support managers through performance discussions, disciplinary actions, and employee development plans.
• Analyze & Report: Track HR metrics such as turnover, engagement, and recruiting trends to inform decision-making.
• Keep Us Current: Stay on top of emerging HR tools, employment laws, and technology innovations that make us more effective.
• Live the ZAG Mindset: Approach each challenge with curiosity, creativity, and a willingness to do things differently to make a real impact.

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in HR, Business Administration, or a related field
• Minimum 4 years of HR management experience, preferably across multiple states
• At least 3 years of experience handling employee relations and conflict resolution
• Solid understanding of federal, state, and local employment laws
• Strong communication, leadership, and organizational skills
• Experience developing and implementing HR policies and processes
• Proficiency in HRIS platforms (ADP or similar)
• A hands-on, "get it done" mindset — you're comfortable balancing strategy with execution
