The role

Plenty of people can pull the numbers; Growth Strategy Consultants needs a HR Director who knows which numbers are worth pulling. Here you'll combine 10 years of know-how with $114,000 - $167,000, full project ownership, and a team that has your back.

Key Responsibilities

  • Liaise with legal and compliance to keep business practices sound
  • Build the financial case for hiring before the business team drowns
  • Keep the HR Director scorecard tied to outcomes, not activity
  • Watch competitor moves and tell Growth Strategy Consultants which ones actually matter
  • Write the brief that turns a vague proudly-nerdy ambition into a scoped project
  • Set the targets Buffalo, NY teams are measured against and make them fair
  • Carry a solutions-focused business problem from whiteboard to working pilot in Buffalo, NY

What You'll Bring

  • The reliability that lets a manager stop checking in
  • Authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship
  • A solid foundation in HR Analytics, refined over 10+ years
  • Confident communicator across email, calls, and in-person meetings
  • Pattern recognition earned across many business engagements

For all its customer-obsessed ambition, Growth Strategy Consultants still operates like the scrappy Buffalo startup that first cracked business years ago. Our Buffalo, NY team moves at a steady, sustainable pace and protects time for deep, focused Teamwork work.

We value work-life balance, so expect $114,000 - $167,000, flexible hours, paid sabbaticals, and a supportive mentoring program.

We believe great hires begin with a hello, so introduce yourself and apply today.
