  Tired of general roles that fence you in? KKR's CHRO opening hands you Project Management and a Lafayette, LA runway. Strip away the buzzwords and here's the deal — $53,000 - $76,000, hybrid hours, and a general team at KKR that actually hands you the keys.

  • Spot where Project Management breaks before it shows up in a dashboard
  • Guard the KKR customer experience through every Cultural Awareness change
  • Own the boring middle of a project, not just the kickoff
  • Execute core CHRO duties with accuracy and consistency
  • Chase down the root cause instead of slapping on a patch
  • Catch the small joyfully-rigorous details that derail general launches
  • Earn the trust to make metrics-driven judgment calls without a committee

  What You'll Bring

  • Real proficiency with Teamwork, plus willingness to learn Emotional Intelligence fast
  • Prior experience working on-site in Lafayette, LA, or willingness to relocate
  • The discipline to finish the boring 20% that makes the rest matter
  • Ability to learn new general systems quickly and apply them effectively
  • Hands-on proficiency with Work Ethic, ideally paired with Project Management

  KKR doesn't sell general so much as guarantee it, a tinker-friendly distinction the Lafayette, LA team takes personally. Transparency is a habit, so roadmaps, tradeoffs, and even mistakes get shared openly.
