Description

Vance Street Capital is a leading middle market Private Equity firm focused on finding, acquiring, growing, and ultimately selling North American high-technology manufacturing companies. Our mission is to create shareholder value by partnering with great management teams and companies and facilitating growth by sharing best practices and resources.

The position of Director of Strategic HR Deployment holds significant importance in two key areas:

  1. The primary focus area is facilitating the creation of high-performance senior leadership teams and strategic HR best practices at the portfolio / operating companies that Vance Street controls.
  2. The secondary focus is leading the Human Resource and Regulatory systems throughout the Vance Street Management Company (i.e., investment professionals and support staff at Vance Street Capital).

The success of this individual will be tied to the recruitment of the Senior Leadership teams at each Vance Street portfolio company, the deployment of modern HR practices for outsized growth, and providing consultative services to help the portfolio companies build out high-performance leadership teams while transitioning through the chapters of the VSC Playbook.

Essential Job Functions

  • Participate in NewCo HR diligence.
  • Lead the "180-day plan" as it relates to the VSC HR best practices. (This will frequently require acting as interim HR manager at the portfolio company until a replacement is placed.
  • Support the Vance Street Operating Partners in the recruitment efforts of the senior leadership teams (CEO, CFO, COO, CCO, VP OP's, VP Eng).
  • Lead the NewCo strategic HR deployment efforts. (This will frequently require a rewrite of the HR systems and practices and deployment of an HRIS allowing the company to double in size in less than five years.)
  • Collaborate with legacy HR teams to develop and implement HR policies and programs that are aligned with business needs and compliant with local regulations.
  • Owner of the VSC Strategic HR Deployment "tear sheet," a document created to share best practices across the portfolio companies. This will also require coordinate and facilitate annual best practices sessions.
  • Provide ongoing assistance for mid-level recruiting and HR manager mentoring.
  • Facilitate the integration of management teams during tuck-in acquisition integrations.
Vance Street Capital Management Company and Operating Company (est. 20%):
  • Provide oversight to all employee payroll and benefit systems (ADP, healthcare, 401k).
  • Provide oversight of modern practices of organization charts, job descriptions, and yearly review processes.
  • Ensure compliance with HR policies, local labor laws, and regulations. Provide guidance on compliance-related issues and stay informed of legal changes that impact HR practices.
