Experience

1. Sr Manager, People Operations & Benefits

   Aledade

   Apr 2023 — Present

   Over the past 4 years my primary areas of focus have been to: Lead the People Operations & Benefits work stream within the broader People Team, driving strategy to foster a culture and environment that focuses on supporting and improving the employee experience across our diverse workforce by evolving our people-centric policies and competitive rewards program, and establishing a scalable, consistent, fair, and equitable approach to systems, policies, and processes. Guide and coach a people operations team that is responsible for employee onboarding, HRIS system administration (UKG), employee lifecycle changes, and day-to-day benefits & leave administration. Evolve the people systems and benefits to continually meet the needs of the organization and employees, including transitioning off of a PEO, implementing a completely new suite of benefits, establishing a new HRIS, and transitioning the organization from a fully insured to a self-insured medical plan. Lead a Wellness Committee and direct programming that encourages holistic wellness and facilitates community and connection across the organization. Stand up the people operations of two new subsidiaries, including benefits, payroll, compliance, and onboarding. Develop, write, and implement new employee-centered policies that are scalable, consistent, and equitable. Monitor state and federal employment law updates across over 50+ states and territories/districts to ensure Aledade remains compliant. Support employee growth and development by enhancing the performance review process through transitioning the company to an annual review cycle and automating the feedback collection and review administration process via the Culture Amp system. Train managers on effective feedback, review writing, employee recognition, and employee development. Coach managers experiencing employee performance concerns, develop PIPs, and conduct investigations.
