About the role
About Parkade Parkade is modernizing private parking. We’re creating a world with far less parking — but one where every parking spot is available at the push of a button, and priced, managed and enforced properly. We are looking for a hands-on Sr. Manager, People or Director of People (title may vary depending on your experience) to help us scale from our current 40-person team to 100 beyond, while keeping Parkade an amazing place to work with high-performing employees. While we leverage a PEO, you’ll be the sole internal owner of HR and recruiting — and you will be the architect of the systems, operations, culture and processes that allow us to nurture our current team and grow Parkade into 100s of employees. We imagine this role will generally be a 50-50 split of recruiting and HR needs from you. This critical role requires a rare blend of big-company expertise and startup sensibility. We need someone who can thoughtfully adapt enterprise-level policies to our agile, entrepreneurial environment while preserving what makes our culture special. We need a thoughtful leader who brings the structure, compliance, and best practices of a large organization, yet respects the innovation, speed, and informality that define our startup roots. Key
