Human Resources Manager

At Zenly, we are looking for a unique HR leader to join an expanding, clinician\-founded team in Raleigh. We aren't looking for someone to sit behind a desk and simply enforce policies. We need a down\-to\-earth partner who is as much a coach as they are a systems strategist. Our partner provides life\-changing ABA therapy for kids with autism. Because we are growing fast, we need an HR professional who can manage the essential daily engine of the company while serving as a steady, stabilizing mentor for our clinical leaders. **The Focus** * **Operations \& Payroll:** You will oversee accurate payroll processing with 100% precision and manage the full benefits administration lifecycle, including leave tracking (FMLA/LOA) and employment documentation. * **Systems Architecture:** You will lead the transition from manual tasks to automated, scalable workflows. This includes optimizing HRIS platforms and partnering with clinic leads to ensure staffing optimization and workforce readiness. * **Leadership Coaching:** A core pillar of this role is serving as a mentor to our clinic leads. You will provide the coaching and conflict\-resolution strategies necessary to help new supervisors grow into confident, effective managers. * **Compliance \& Playbook Design:** You will architect department\-specific HR Playbooks and SOPs. Your goal is to ensure expert\-level adherence to employment laws (FLSA, EEO) and healthcare regulations (HIPAA) while keeping systems user\-friendly. * **Lifecycle Management:** You will drive the Performance Management lifecycle and oversee professional onboarding and offboarding experiences, ensuring they are tech\-enabled, consistent, and growth\-oriented. **Who You Are** * **Industry Experience:** Professional HR experience in Healthcare, Education, or Child\-Focused environments is essential. You’re comfortable in a clinic setting and understand the unique heart of this field. * **HR Leadership:** You have 5–10 years of progressive experience, with at least 3 years in a leadership role. * **Tech\-Forward:** You are a power\-user of Google Suite and HRIS automation tools with a passion for creating efficient, data\-driven systems. * **The Grounded Mentor:** You stay calm in a fast\-paced, multi\-site environment and find real joy in watching new leaders find their footing. **Growth and Compensation** * **Performance\-Driven Rewards:** We offer a competitive base salary plus Quarterly Performance Bonuses tied to precision and organizational impact. * **Career Evolution:** This role is designed for someone who wants to grow alongside the company. As we expand our footprint, your influence on our people strategy will grow as well. * **Total Rewards:** 401(k) retirement plan, comprehensive Medical/Dental/Vision insurance, paid CEUs for your development, and competitive PTO. **Please apply directly through LinkedIn to start the conversation.**
