I am working with a west coast based multi-site specialty dental healthcare provider that is part of a large Private Equity group. This organization has seen a great deal of growth and is looking for an experienced human resources leader who’s worked in a fast-paced and growth focused environment in the past.

The SVP of HR is a new position to the company, and will be responsible for driving company culture, strengthening values, establishing policies and procedures, and reinforcing the behaviors needed to support the company’s strategy, objectives, and activities.

The SVP of HR is responsible for directing all the people functions of the business in accordance with the policies and practices of the business, the ethical and social consciences of business and society and the laws, regulations and administrative rulings of governmental organizations and other regulatory and advisory authorities and organizations. They will also be responsible for the strategic human resource planning to provide the company with the best people talent available and to position the company as the Employer of Choice.

Additional responsibilities will include the following:

• Construct and manage the detailed Human Resources roadmap to support the execution of the company’s vision.
• Provide focused, business-minded HR leadership, emphasizing HR’s measurable contribution to business success and business metrics (revenue growth, profitability, market share, customer service, expense, etc.).
• Recruit, motivate and develop superior staff. Build and lead a talented, flexible, responsive world-class systems organization that has a high sense of urgency, is customer-oriented and exceptionally responsive.

• Plan, develop, organize, implement, direct and evaluate the organization’s human resource function and performance.
• Participate in the development of the corporation’s plans and programs as a strategic partner but particularly from the perspective of the impact on people.
• Translate the strategic and tactical business plans into HR strategic and operational plans.
• Evaluate and advise on the impact of long-range planning of new programs/strategies and regulatory action as those items impact the attraction, motivation, development, and retention of the people resources of the company.
