Human Resources Manager

At New Story, we believe every child has incredible potential. Guided by our values of integrity, accountability, collaboration, inclusion, and supportiveness, we deliver individualized education and therapeutic support that transforms lives. Join our team and make a lasting impact.

This is a remote-based role, designed for a candidate who lives in the Greater Cleveland area (or nearby) and enjoys being out in the schools. You’ll build strong relationships and provide hands-on HR support through a regular cadence of onsite visits across our Northern Ohio locations (Toledo, Sandusky, Independence, and Berea).

• Minimum of five years of progressive human resources experience

• Broad HR expertise across employee relations, performance management, engagement, and talent development

• Experience using an HRIS platform and strong proficiency with the MS Office suite

What You'll Do

• Coach leaders on performance improvement, documentation, corrective action, and conflict resolution

• Lead highly sensitive employee relations investigations with sound interviewing and documentation practices

• Serve as a field-based HR partner across multiple school locations with regular onsite presence

• Manage complex cases with discretion, strong organization, and effective prioritization

• Build trusted, collaborative relationships while applying policy fairly and escalating issues when appropriate

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• Enjoy both paid time off and extra paid school breaks (for select roles), plus paid holidays

• Wellness perks including gym discounts, mindfulness apps, and prescription savings

• Tuition reimbursement, career development programs, and leadership training

• 401(k) retirement savings with a 4% company match and immediate vesting
