Reporting to the Director, HR Technology & Total Rewards, this in-office role is at the heart of AMA's Human Resources function, partnering closely with Finance, HR Technology and senior leadership to uphold compliance, drive continuous improvement and deliver a seamless employee experience.

A Place to Belong

AMA is more than a workplace; it’s a family.

Ongoing professional development, with unlimited learning opportunities, LinkedIn Learning Access, and dedicated time for personal growth.
Paid vacation and personal days, including three weeks of vacation to start, a Me Day, a Volunteer Day, and the option to purchase additional vacation time.
Flexible work models that make sense for your lifestyle, including our four-day work week option: Alongside our other work models, this option gives you another way to harmonize work and life in a way that’s personally meaningful and aligned with your role. Available to eligible fully in-office and fully remote roles, with tailored guidelines to fit department-specific needs.
