HR DIRECTOR

LOS ANGELES, CA

Who We Are

Tower 28 is building a world where beauty is accessible, inclusive, and sensitive. We want to push the boundaries of what beauty should be: a mix of high quality, high standards, and high levels of fun. We want to be a beauty big sister, who knows what's right (clean, non-toxic, vegan, cruelty-free) but also knows how to have a good time (clean beauty doesn't have to be so serious!).

You'll build trusted relationships with leaders and employees, ensuring our HR strategies align with organizational goals. This role is crucial in driving our talent strategy, fostering a positive work environment, and supporting the growth and development of our team. This is a full-time, hybrid role based in West LA.
