We're looking for a strategic HR professional to join Stord's People team as our dedicated HRBP, M&A Integration. This high-impact role sits at the intersection of People Operations and M&A, ensuring that every acquisition we complete results in a seamless transition for acquired employees—from due diligence through their first day at Stord and beyond.
As Stord accelerates its M&A strategy, this role is critical to our ability to move quickly while maintaining our culture of employee engagement and operational excellence. You will be the People expert embedded within our M&A Integration team, owning the entire employee lifecycle for acquisitions—from initial talent assessment and compensation benchmarking during diligence, through offer negotiations and benefits enrollment, to Workday onboarding and Day 1 readiness.  

This is not a traditional HR generalist role. You are a specialist who understands both the rigor of M&A transactions and the empathy required to guide people through organizational change. You'll work alongside our M&A Integration teams during diligence, then shift into full execution mode to bring acquired teams into the #1

Stord Team with minimal disruption and maximum retention.

This is a rare opportunity to continue building Stord's M&A People playbook and become the go-to expert for integrating talent across multiple acquisitions. You'll have direct visibility into our most strategic growth initiatives, partner directly with the M&A team, and own outcomes that directly impact employee retention, engagement, and our ability to capture deal value. If you thrive in fast-paced environments, love solving complex people challenges, and want to be instrumental in scaling a high-growth consumer experience company through M&A, this role is built for you.###
