WHO WE ARE
Hotels done differently. It’s not just a slogan it is who we are in everything we do. We believe in the power of People, Place and Character; ensuring our properties are a place where individuals are valued and celebrated as a tribute to the neighborhoods and the people of the communities in which we operate; elevating our associates’ pride in who they are, where they live and who we serve.
Soulful, sophisticated, and avant-garde, the Jasper Hotel serves as Fargo’s social hub for cultured locals and modern travelers looking to connect, discover and indulge, the intersection of luxury and community. Redefining hotel luxury in North Dakota, this new build has 6,000 square feet of flexible space, 125rooms and features Rosewild Restaurant, a signature lobby lounge, and a café.
WHO YOU ARE
Your past experiences have led you to understand that there is an art + science to the how and what an HR professional is responsible for; not all remedies can be outlined in a policy or noted in a handbook. You are an advocate for the employees and in return understand the strategic direction of the business and how people drive the success of the company. In the past you have read those articles of why people dislike an HR department and said to yourself, “I agree – I too want to modernize the role and responsibilities of HR.” The passion you have for the business you’re in has led you to interpret a P&L, understand the current marketing strategy, and challenge the status-quo. You continually find ways to partner with your peers to identify a better way of doing things and have the grit and tenacity to see it through.
THE ROLE
As the leader of HR, you are the guardian of the culture pillars of People, Place and Character that promotes an engaging, positive and safe work environment for all employees; implementing proven practices and programs in which employees feel recognized, valued and supported.
