Human Resources Director

Job Description:

The Human Resources Director (HRD) serves as a strategic partner to design and deliver people strategies and solutions, including workforce planning, leadership coaching, and organizational design not only at St. James Hospital, but for identified service lines at Intermountain Health.

The HR Director ensures that business outcomes are achieved through effective change management support and by facilitating caregiver engagement, and develops integrated, data informed solutions by partnering with business and clinical senior leaders, as well as the HR Solutions Center and Networks of Expertise.

Becoming a part of the Intermountain team means gaining a family and finding a place to plant your roots. 

Benefits are one of the ways we encourage health for you and your family. Our generous package includes medical, dental, and vision coverage. But health is more than a well-working body: it encompasses body, mind, and spiritual well-being. To that end, we’ve launched a Healthy Living program to address your holistic health. Healthy Living includes financial incentives, digital tools, tobacco cessation, classes, counseling, and paid time off. We also offer financial wellness tools and retirement planning.
