Vice President of People

Who you are

• 12+ years in People, HR, or Talent, with at least 5 years of experience managing a team and owning and scaling a department rather than a single program
• Strong track record in program development and talent acquisition specifically, having built out talent strategy from scratch rather than inheriting and running ones already in place
• Skilled at connecting workforce planning, talent analytics, leadership development, and organizational strategy to Curri's broader business goals, not treating them as standalone initiatives
• Background with meaningful experience spanning all of HR business partnership, people operations and talent, giving you range across the full People function
• Experience scaling a People function through a similar headcount inflection at a high-growth company
• Direct experience building an HRBP and/or Talent function

What the job involves

• Curri is seeking a VP of People to take on an exciting opportunity to design and build a People function that scales Curri into our next growth phase: from the ~250 employees we have today, to the many more we continue to hire at a rapid pace.
• The VP of People will need to continually shape how the company organizes, develops leaders, and executes talent strategy at its increasing scale over time.
• You will own Curri's entire people function: talent acquisition, HR business partnership, and people operations as one integrated department, reporting directly to Curri's CLO.
• This is a builder role, managing and adding to a team of recruiters, HR business partners, and people ops, and standing up the programs and infrastructure a company at this scale needs to run on.
• Build and manage the People department, including Talent Acquisition, HR business partners, and people ops, setting the structure and cadence the team runs on as headcount grows
• Own and build Curri's Talent Strategy: Translate headcount plans and growth targets into a proactive hiring roadmap, keeping talent acquisition capacity ahead of the business's needs
• Serve as the go-to advisor to the executive team on org structure, headcount planning, and the highest-stakes people decisions in the company
• Stand up the HR business partnership model that gives every functional leader a trusted partner for org design, performance, and team development
• Support the people ops team in scaling our core people programs, including onboarding, performance management, benefits, and career frameworks
• Design and launch new programs, such as compensation frameworks and leadership development, that don't yet exist at Curri in a documented, repeatable form
