About The Role

Dealers Wholesale is growing — and we’re looking for a People Strategy Leader to help us build our next chapter. This role sits on the executive leadership team and owns the full people strategy, from day-to-day HR execution to shaping culture and leadership development. You'll lead and do: strategy, training, compliance, employee experience, and organizational design. This is a hands-on leadership role — a perfect fit for someone who’s energized by building and executing, not just advising.

  • M&A Integration: Lead cultural diligence and onboarding efforts during acquisitions.

Top Outcomes

  • Maintain eNPS ≥ 70 and Best Places to Work scores ≥ 85 .
  • Reduce key role time-to-fill to < 45 days; 90% success rate for new hires. Voluntary turnover among high performers
  • 100% compliance across HR, safety, and audit requirements.
  • Complete cultural integration within 60 days post-acquisition.

  • Who You Are

    • A builder and doer — you love creating strategies and executing them.
    • A trusted executive leader with strong business acumen and people instincts.
    • A clear communicator who can engage everyone from field teams to boardrooms.
    • A culture champion who believes people are a company's ultimate advantage.
    • Highly organized, action-oriented, and fully accountable for what you lead.

    Qualifications

    • 5 years of progressive HR leadership experience blending strategy and execution.
    • Deep expertise in employee relations, organizational design, and culture building.
    • Strong experience with PEO management, HRIS platforms, and compliance.
    • M&A integration experience preferred.
    • Bachelor's degree required; certifications (SPHR, SHRM-SCP, coaching) a plus.

    Compensation: $115-135K annually, 20-25% bonus potential
