SPCSHP is an Agency of Progress, applying intelligence, creativity, and craft to help clients understand themselves, their customers, and the larger culture. Regardless of the size of the organization or where they are on their journey, they all must move forward. For some, this requires incremental change. For others, transformation. SPCSHP is designed to build brands the way people experience them – where Stories, Systems, and Communities meet. Our client relationships span different industries and brand life stages : from start-ups like Lightricks to established Fortune 500 companies like JPMorgan Chase, Dairy Queen, PepsiCo, and Starbucks, among others.

SPCSHP is looking for a Senior Resource Manager who will be the strategic architect of our agency's talent and capacity. As the sole resource manager at our agency, this role goes beyond traditional resource management to serve as a critical business partner to senior leadership, combining strategic workforce planning with hands-on operational excellence.
