Sobre este puesto de Talent and People Programs Manager en Destination Pet
Welcome to Destination Pet. We are One Pack- a united team working together to elevate the love and lives of pet families. Our pet-obsessed professionals create a connected care network of trustworthy partners who bring creative innovation every day. We are revolutionizing the pet industry. Join us!
We're looking for an HR professional who can own and run the programs that keep Destination Pet's people strategy on track — our annual performance management cycle, compensation governance, enterprise talent programs, and the analytics that give leadership visibility into how our organization is doing. Some of what you'll administer already exists and runs on a fixed annual rhythm; some you'll help build, refine, or launch as our priorities evolve.This is a hands-on ownership role, not a pure coordination role: you'll partner directly with executive leadership, the Operations team, and business leaders across the company to administer critical programs and shape how they work. Real HR program experience — not just project-coordination experience — matters here.
We are looking to add a Talent and People Programs Manager to our team!
