About the company
This is not your average higher education human resources leadership role. At CampusWorks, we partner with colleges and universities to transform the way HR delivers value — and we’re looking for a proven HR executive to serve as onsite Chief Human Resources Officer and trusted consultants.
About the role
In this unique role, you’ll bring your expertise as a higher ed HR leader to:
Responsibilities
• Elevate your impact by serving simultaneously as a CHRO and consultant.
• Lead HR transformation initiatives that improve service delivery, compliance, and employee experience.
• Design and implement HR strategies and systems that align with institutional goals and strengthen culture.
• Partner directly with senior leadership and stakeholders to drive change, engagement, and accountability.
• Stay connected to CampusWorks’ national network of experts and resources while making a lasting impact locally.
A hybrid presence may be required with frequent travel to client locations.
Why This Role is Different
•
Unlike a traditional CHRO role, this opportunity lets you:
•
Expand your reach — leverage your higher education HR expertise while serving as a strategic advisor and change leader.
•
Drive transformation — guide institutions through modernization of HR systems, processes, and culture.
•
Balance leadership and consulting — manage day-to-day HR operations while influencing strategy at the executive level.
What We’re Looking For
•
10+ years of progressive HR leadership with at least 5 years as the head of HR in a higher education institution.
•
A proven record of transforming HR services and delivery in higher education.
•
Strong knowledge of HR systems (HCM, ATS, payroll/benefits) and compliance requirements.
•
Exceptional leadership, communication, and change management skills.
•
Agility to navigate politically sensitive environments and shifting priorities.
Nice to have
Preferred: Master’s degree and/or SPHR/SHRM-SCP certification.
•
This is your chance to elevate your career — moving beyond a traditional HR leadership role to shape the future of HR in higher education while making a direct impact on the institutions we serve.
