Director of Human Resources and Compliance

About Belle

Belle is redefining how Medicare beneficiaries experience healthcare — and it starts with their feet. Our unique model combines in-home foot care people love with telehealth, ongoing screenings, and care management, turning a welcome visit into a powerful platform for preventive care.

Our people make that model possible. In the past 12 months, we’ve grown from 67 to 152 employees — and we expect to more than double again. We’ve done this in just one state, Georgia. With geographic expansion planned for 2027, recruiting great people, preparing them to deliver exceptional care, and developing strong managers will be critical to our success.

There’s a lot to build, and it’s going to be a fun ride.

The Role

We’re hiring a Director of HR & Compliance to help Belle scale its workforce, strengthen its managers, and expand confidently into new states.

Reporting directly to the CEO, you’ll lead our HR Generalist, establish our first Recruiting Specialist role, and partner closely with leadership and credentialing. You’ll own HR operations and employment compliance while coordinating broader compliance responsibilities with internal leaders and external experts.

This role is both strategic and hands-on: you’ll translate growth plans into people priorities while ensuring everyday operations run smoothly. It’s ideal for someone who enjoys building practical processes, developing teams, and navigating the complexity of a growing healthcare workforce.

• Maintain reliable people data, role definitions, and organizational reporting.
• Compliance & Risk Management

• Monitor employment requirements and translate them into clear policies and manager guidance.
• Partner with operational, clinical, and credentialing leaders on workforce-related payer requirements, audits, and certifications.
• Coordinate vendor onboarding, assigned insurance policies, annual reporting, and risk documentation.

• Manage and develop the HR team as Belle grows.
• Advise leadership on people strategy, organizational design, and workforce risks.

• Build a culture of accountability, respect, and compassionate care.
