HR Director Jobs in Manchester, NH

A HR Director, or Human Resources Director, plays a pivotal role in developing and implementing policies and strategies related to all aspects of human resources management. This includes talent acquisition, learning and development, employee relations, compensation and benefits, and compliance with labor laws. As leaders, they guide and manage the overall provision of Human Resources services and programs for an entire organization. They collaborate with top management in decision-making and act as a bridge between the management and employees, ensuring a positive work environment and employee satisfaction.

Some of the key skills required for an HR Director role include leadership, strategic thinking, excellent communication, and interpersonal skills.

Certifications like Professional in Human Resources (PHR), Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR), or Society for Human Resource Management Certified Professional (SHRM-CP) can significantly enhance their credentials. Typically, before becoming a HR Director, a professional could hold roles such as HR Generalist, HR Manager, or HR Business Partner.
