This role serves as Hyder’s leader for human resources, talent development, and organizational

effectiveness, helping build exceptional leaders, strengthen our culture, and ensure the company has

the people and capabilities needed to achieve its long-term strategic goals.

Aligned with Hyder’s mission of Inspired People Creating Loyal Customers, this role plays a critical part

in building a high-performing culture that attracts, develops, and retains top talent. The Director of

Human Resources & Talent Development partners closely with the Executive Team and business leaders

to design, implement, and continuously improve programs that enhance employee engagement,

leadership development, structured training, performance management, career development,

succession planning, and long-term organizational success in alignment with our culture. This role also

leads Hyder’s recruiting, interviewing, and onboarding strategies while ensuring effective utilization of

talent assessment tools, including PXT Select for candidate evaluation and Insights Discovery for

employee, leadership, and team development.

This role provides leadership to Hyder’s Human Resources Administrator and supports company leaders

with employee relations matters, including investigations, performance counseling, and disciplinary

actions. However, the primary focus of the position is talent development and organizational

effectiveness. Success in this role will be measured by the organization’s ability to attract, develop,

engage, and retain exceptional talent, rather than by the administration of traditional HR functions such
