Curri is a YC-backed logistics company (founded 2018) solving last-mile delivery inefficiencies in the construction and industrial supplies sector. They operate a nationwide fleet and are headquartered in Ventura, CA.
You will lead Curri's entire People function as it scales from ~250 employees to significantly larger headcount. Reporting to the CLO, you'll build and manage a department spanning Talent Acquisition, HR Business Partnership, and People Operations—establishing structure, cadence, and programs as the company grows.
Key responsibilities:
- Build and manage the People department, including recruiters, HR business partners, and people ops staff, defining team structure and operating rhythm.
- Own Curri's Talent Strategy: translate headcount plans into a proactive hiring roadmap that keeps acquisition capacity ahead of business needs.
- Advise the executive team on org structure, headcount planning, and critical people decisions.
- Establish an HR Business Partnership model providing functional leaders with trusted partners for org design, performance management, and team development.
- Scale core people programs: onboarding, performance management, benefits, and career frameworks.
- Design and launch new programs (compensation frameworks, leadership development) in documented, repeatable form.
Required experience:
- 12+ years in People, HR, or Talent roles.
- At least 5 years managing a team and owning/scaling a department (not a single program).
- Strong track record building talent strategy from scratch, not inheriting existing programs.
- Ability to connect workforce planning, talent analytics, leadership development, and organizational strategy to business goals.
- Broad experience across HR business partnership, people operations, and talent acquisition.
Bonus:
- Experience scaling a People function through similar headcount inflection at high-growth companies.
- Direct experience building HRBP and/or Talent functions.
