We are seeking an experienced VP of People. You will report to our Founder/CEO and own Culture, People Ops and Recruiting functions via IC work and management of the current Loyal team.

Requirements:
Previously been a People leader at a scale-up company, perhaps as the leader or the leader’s right hand

Both high empathy and a high bar
Ambitious and excited to work hard
Communicates clearly and concisely
Spikes on internal communications and can give casual, clear, and compelling company-wide presentations
