Job Description

The Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT is seeking an experienced HR professional with an expertise in Employee Relations and policy development and implementation. In this role, you will use your knowledge of employee relations and HR policy best practices to a human resources team committed to delivering an ever- improving service to all Broadies. With responsibility for the development and implementation for employee relations and policy strategy, this role is critical in enabling the Broad to deliver its ambitious vision.

In this role, you'll focus your work in two primary areas, the first of which is employee relations.

You will be responsible for this full-cycle approach in order to ensure that our policies are always up-to-date and effective.

And of course, you'll manage other projects/processes as needed, giving you exposure to all aspects of HR.

-
Excellent interpersonal skills with demonstrated patience, tact, and respect
