HR Business Partner

Join Aya Healthcare, named the #1 top workplace in the large company category by the San Diego Union-Tribune.

First things first — this is not a traditional HR role! We’re not looking for an HR professional that simply manages risk or implements standard HR processes. In this role, you'll focus on mentoring, coaching and consulting with colleagues and leaders at all levels of the organization to increase overall leadership and team effectiveness using a transparent, empathetic, genuine, people-centered approach.

We’re reimagining what it means to be an HR Business Partner and searching for a candidate whose approach aligns with Aya’s unique, entrepreneurial company culture. We believe in leading with compassion, not rigid processes or policies, and our number one goal is to create the best employee experience possible. The ideal candidate is extremely flexible and looks at each situation as a unique opportunity to help our people succeed. You must be able to manage competing priorities, operate at an extremely fast pace and resolve conflicting opinions while determining the best decision for employees and the business. You should be comfortable rolling up your sleeves and being hands on, as well as operating strategically with leadership teams. If this sounds like a role you’d excel in, apply today — we can’t wait to meet you!
