About the Role
The Company is in search of a Vice President of People and Culture to lead the evolution of its human capital ecosystem. This pivotal role involves architecting a future-ready people strategy that is tightly aligned with the organization's mission and business priorities. The successful candidate will be responsible for leading organizational design, workforce strategy, and change management, as well as designing and institutionalizing scalable people systems. The VP will also be tasked with elevating employee relations as a strategic enterprise capability, driving communication, and shaping talent, culture, and employee experience. The role requires a visionary leader with a proven track record in complex, multi-state, or scaling organizations, and the ability to influence and partner with C-suite and Board members. Candidates for the VP of People and Culture position at the company should have a minimum of 15 years' progressive leadership experience, with a strong background in employee relations and a deep understanding of the future of work. The role demands a leader with executive presence, systems thinking, analytical fluency, and expert communication skills. A Bachelor's degree is required, with a preference for an advanced degree or executive HR certification. The ideal candidate will have experience in both the nonprofit and for-profit sectors, particularly in organizations serving first-generation college students or historically underserved communities. The VP will be expected to foster a high-performing, inclusive culture and strengthen the company's Employee Value Proposition to attract and retain mission-driven talent.
