Human Resources Manager

The Place for Children with Autism
Chicago, IL Full Time
POSTED ON 4/22/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/22/2025
We’re Hiring: People Operations Manager (a.k.a. The Heartbeat of Our Team!)

Do you believe that great HR is more than just policies and paperwork? Are you equal parts strategic mastermind and people whisperer? Do you throw confetti (metaphorically… or literally, we don’t judge) when someone nails their goals, feels heard, or finds joy at work?

If you’re nodding your head, we want YOU to be our next People Operations Manager.

We’re looking for a culture champion, people pro, and process guru who’s ready to lead the charge in making our organization an even better place to work. From employee relations to engagement, from payroll to performance management—you’ll touch every stage of the employee lifecycle and help us bring our people-first philosophy to life.

What You’ll Do

  • Team Leadership: Manage, mentor, and support the professional development of the People Operations team to ensure high-quality HR service delivery across the organization.
  • Employee Experience & Culture: Lead initiatives that enhance the employee experience, including onboarding, engagement programs, DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging) efforts, and recognition activities that foster a positive workplace culture.
  • Strategic HR Partnership: Serve as a trusted advisor to organizational leaders, providing guidance on people-related matters and helping teams navigate complex challenges with empathy and strategic insight.
  • Performance Management: Oversee the performance review process, goal setting, and development planning. Provide tools and training to ensure consistent, constructive feedback and professional growth opportunities across all teams.
  • Policy & Compliance: Maintain up-to-date and legally compliant HR policies and procedures. Ensure organizational adherence to federal, state, and local employment laws while fostering fairness and transparency.
  • Payroll & Benefits Administration: Oversee payroll processing and benefits administration to ensure accuracy, timeliness, and employee satisfaction. Continuously assess and enhance total rewards offerings to remain competitive and aligned with employee needs.

What You Bring

  • A bachelor’s degree in HR, Business, or a related field (or equivalent experience with lots of heart).
  • 5 years of progressive HR experience, including 2 in a leadership.
  • You’ve been there, done that with employee engagement, employee relations, performance management, and payroll and benefits (Paylocity experience = gold star ).
  • You’re a wizard with employment law, never forgetting the human behind the handbook.
  • Bonus points if you’ve worked in ABA, healthcare, or multi-site environments.

Why You’ll Love It Here

  • Mission-driven work with a team that truly cares about people—clients and staff.
  • An environment where new ideas are encouraged, and growth is constant.
  • Plenty of opportunities to make a real impact and shape the future of our workplace.
  • Oh, and we like to have a little fun, too.

What You'll Receive

This is a full-time, salaried, exempt position with a compensation range of $85,000 – $92,000, commensurate with experience.

We offer a robust and thoughtful total rewards package that includes:

  • 8% Shared Success Bonus Plan
  • Annual Performance-Based Increases
  • Up to 30 days of paid time off (including company holidays, sick leave, paid leave, vacation, wellness, and floating holidays)
  • Monthly Mobile Device Reimbursement
  • Comprehensive Benefits – Medical, Dental, Vision
  • Disability and Life Insurance
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • 401(k) with Company Match
  • Monthly Wellness Reimbursement
  • Commuter Benefits
  • Hybrid Work Environment (3 days onsite)

We believe when our people thrive, so does our organization—and we put our money (and benefits) where our mission is.
