WHY THIS ROLE IS IMPORTANT

• This person will support approximately 400 employees across multiple locations within a fast-paced LTL brokerage and inside sales environment.
• The role will partner closely with business leaders to provide workforce planning, staffing strategies, employee engagement support, and leadership coaching.
• This individual will support a demanding leadership population that operates independently and requires an experienced HR partner who can influence, push back respectfully, and stand firm when needed.
• The business has experienced growth, integration, and operational change, creating a need for HR leadership around manager coaching, workforce alignment, hiring practices, retention, and employee relations.
• This is a hands-on HRBP role requiring someone comfortable being close to the employee population, sitting on-site with the Charlotte team, and traveling regularly to stay connected to the broader business.
• THE BACKGROUND THAT FITS
• Several years of progressive HRBP experience; this is not an entry-level HR role.
• Experience supporting large employee populations, ideally 250+ employees across multiple levels, locations, and functions.
• Strong workforce planning, staffing strategy, employee engagement, performance management, retention, and manager coaching experience.
• Ability to partner closely with recruiting, operations, sales, and senior leadership on staffing needs, organizational changes, and workforce planning.
• Experience supporting difficult, demanding, or highly independent leadership populations where influence without authority is required.
• Professional confidence and sound judgment, with the ability to push back respectfully while maintaining credibility and trust with business leaders.
• Background in transportation, logistics, freight brokerage, sales, manufacturing, hospitality, startup, or other fast-paced, high-volume environments would translate well.
• Sales organization support experience is a plus, but not required.
• Workday experience is a plus.
• Intermediate Excel skills are a plus.
• Hands-on, flexible, and independent HR professional who can operate without heavy oversight, adapt quickly as business needs shift, and build strong relationships across multiple locations.
