Head of People Operations

We believe that mental health is just as important as physical health. We recognize that mental health issues can be complex and multifaceted, and we are dedicated to treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.

We aim to create a world where mental health is no longer stigmatized or marginalized, but rather is embraced as an integral part of one's overall well-being. 

We believe that by providing quality care that is both evidence-based and compassionate, we can empower individuals to take charge of their mental health and achieve their full potential. We are passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of those struggling with mental health issues and we strive to be a force for positive change in the field of mental healthcare.

About the Role

We are looking to hire a dynamic Head of People Operations to lead our People Operations function. In partnership with our VP of People, you will develop strategies and guide the execution of initiatives that support high-performing, inclusive, and engaged teams. You will oversee the full employee lifecycle post-offer: onboarding/offboarding, employee engagement and culture, benefits, compliance, performance management, HRBP support, HRIS and analytics, and learning & development.  This is an exciting time to join the team at Rula. While there’s a strong people foundation in place, there’s a lot of opportunity to build and innovate. We’re looking for someone who can zoom out and zoom in – you can think big picture but can also get very granular when it comes to executing your vision. You’re operationally minded and comfortable using data to make informed decisions. You’re a culture champion and trusted advisor, comfortably guiding managers and leaders through a variety of personnel situations. You’ll be joining an established People Ops function that’s running smoothly so you can focus on leading the team through the next phase of growth at Rula.
