Head of Talent Acquisition & Organizational Development

Are you the HR leader who builds championship teams?

Golden Platter Foods, a fast-growing premium food manufacturer opening our third facility, is seeking an exceptional Talent & Organizational Development Manager to architect our people strategy during an exciting expansion phase. This is a rare opportunity to build from the ground up while working directly with our CEO. The Opportunity We’re not looking for traditional HR. We need a proven talent magnet who can:

• Build our recruiting engine to attract industry-leading talent
• Design world-class onboarding that gets people productive fast
• Create organizational systems that scale with aggressive growth
• Position Golden Platter as the employer of choice in our industry

This role reports directly to the CEO and operates at the strategic level—not operational HR. You’ll have full autonomy to build something special. What You’ve Done Before

• Recruited at scale - You’ve personally sourced, sold, and closed top-tier talent
• Built onboarding systems - You know how to get department heads aligned and new hires thriving
• Operated under pressure - You’ve delivered results in fast-growth environments
• Rolled up your sleeves - No task too small when building something great
• Made it happen - Track record of transforming talent acquisition in 12-24 months

The Golden Platter Difference

• Industry leadership: Premium food manufacturing with national retail presence
• Expansion mode: Opening our third facility with aggressive growth plans
• Innovation focus: Customization and quality elevation driving market differentiation
• Leadership team: Experienced C-suite with proven track record
• Culture: Entrepreneurial spirit with enterprise-scale opportunity

What You’ll Build

• Elite recruiting machine that positions GP as an industry destination
• Systematic onboarding that integrates seamlessly with department leaders
• Leadership development programs that prepare teams for continued growth
• Cultural systems that preserve our entrepreneurial DNA while scaling
• Talent pipeline that becomes our competitive advantage

What We’re Looking For

• 7+ years progressive HR leadership experience in growth companies
• Proven recruiting success in manufacturing, food, or similar industries
• Systems builder who creates scalable processes from scratch
• Cultural architect who understands how to maintain culture during rapid growth
• Results-driven with metrics that prove your impact
• Roll-up-the-sleeves mentality - you’ve done the work, not just managed it

Why This Role Matters
You’ll be building the people foundation for a company with serious growth ambitions. Every system you create, every hire you enable, every leader you develop directly impacts our trajectory. This isn’t about maintaining status quo—it’s about building something exceptional.

Ready to Build Something Great?
If you’re the HR leader who gets energized by building from the ground up, thrives in fast-growth environments, and wants to make a lasting impact on a company’s future, we want to hear from you.
