HR Director

HR Director

Multi-State Behavioral Health Organization | Mid-Atlantic (Maryland-based)

$150,000–$170,000 base + bonus

Redda Group is partnering with a growing, private equity-backed outpatient behavioral health organization to find its next HR Director. If you’re a Senior HR Manager or HR Manager who loves employee relations and is ready to run the whole HR function, keep reading.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Our client provides outpatient addiction treatment and recovery services to thousands of patients across multiple Mid-Atlantic states.

As HR Director, you’ll own the people function for about 225 employees and report directly to the Chief Operating Officer.

This is a hands-on leadership seat. You’ll be the organization’s employee relations expert, its talent acquisition leader and the person who keeps a highly regulated clinical workforce compliant and protected.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Personally lead escalated employee relations: run investigations, interview the parties, document findings, and guide discipline and separations
• Oversee the HR and talent acquisition teams
• Hold onboarding and offboarding to a high standard, with clear owners and measurable compliance
• Deliver HR metrics: ER activity, turnover, time to fill and requisition aging

WHAT YOU BRING

• Experience as a Senior HR Manager, HR Manager or HR Business Partner in a multi-site, frontline-heavy organization
• Deep, hands-on employee relations experience. You’ve run investigations yourself and delivered difficult conversations with confidence
• Sound judgment about what HR should own and what belongs with field leadership
• Full-cycle recruiting experience
• Comfort working in a numbers-driven environment, and the business sense to speak in cost and outcomes
• Working knowledge of multi-state employment law (FLSA, FMLA and related)
• Behavioral health or healthcare experience is a plus, not a requirement

WHY THIS IS A GREAT CAREER MOVE

• The step up you’ve been waiting for. Move from Senior Manager to Director, owning the function end to end and reporting directly to the COO.
• Private equity experience on your résumé. PE-backed operators value HR leaders who understand how investors measure a business. That experience opens doors for the rest of your career.
• Real influence, fast. A lean, decisive leadership team means your recommendations get heard and acted on, without layers of bureaucracy.
• Build something that lasts. Clear 30/60/90-day expectations and a defined training plan set you up to succeed, and you’ll shape the function as it grows.
• Competitive pay. $150K–$170K base plus a performance bonus tied to clear, agreed-upon metrics.
• Location-flexible , with regular travel to clinic locations and time at the Burtonsville, Maryland corporate office as needed. Candidates should live within commuting distance of the Mid-Atlantic clinic network.
