Your opportunity :

We've built something special at HoneyBook and from the beginning we've been an organization that has been talent obsessed. At every turn, we've placed an unprecedented amount of attention on our people and our culture, and today you can see the results of these decisions reflected everywhere in the company.

We have a good foundation in place, and as the Head of People for our US team, you'll be entrusted with building upon what we've worked so hard to create. There's still much for you to shape and impact, and we're looking to your skills, experience, energy, and creativity to bring our entire organization to a new level.

Your task will be to align our people strategy with our business goals, building upon the strong base we've already developed - all the while keeping a lock-tight grip on our culture as we grow. You'll own our people strategy for our US-based employees, always looking down the road to identify what will be needed next in terms of process, initiatives, structure and talent, and will also help create and drive key people initiatives for our global HoneyBookers. If you like to scale, and love a challenge, you'll find an opportunity to create something different here with support across all levels of the company. Simply put, this is going to be both a fun and meaningful journey!

This role is hybrid to our SF office, 2-3 days per week (current expectation is Wednesdays and Thursdays in-office).

Here are a few of the things you'll do :

• Partner closely with the SVP of People and Ops to drive culture initiatives and ensure we maintain our culture as we scale
