The Vice President, Total Rewards is a senior HR leader responsible for designing, building, and evolving the organization's total rewards strategy, compensation, benefits, HR systems, and people analytics, to support a growing, decentralized workforce of both hourly and salaried employees. This role also serves as the HR lead on mergers, acquisitions, and integration activities, partnering closely with the transformation office and executive team to ensure people-related risks, costs, and opportunities are fully assessed and integrated smoothly. This is a highly visible, hands-on leadership role for someone who can operate strategically while also rolling up their sleeves to build programs, structures, and systems from the ground up or at scale.

Triumvirate Environmental provides leading organizations in the higher education, life sciences, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing sectors with diverse services and expertise to assist them with compliance management. At Triumvirate Environmental, we strive to WOW both our employees and our customers. Our unique culture fosters growth, development, education, and creativity.
