This diverse company operates across multiple sectors including hotels, restaurants, and various destination venues, providing a comprehensive range of services that celebrate the unique heritage of the region. Heritage Companies prides itself on fostering a supportive and inclusive work environment where employees are encouraged to grow, develop their skills, and advance their careers within the company.

The Corporate HR Manager is expected to maintain a strong presence across Heritage’s properties in New Mexico, facilitating positive employee relations, conducting investigations when necessary, and partnering with leaders to foster development and retention. This combination of strategic oversight and hands-on involvement enables the Corporate Human Resources Manager to directly contribute to the company’s success by promoting a positive employee experience and maintaining compliance with all relevant regulations.

The position offers competitive pay along with comprehensive benefits, including a 25% match contribution to the 401(k) retirement plan. Employees enjoy generous discounts across the company's portfolio of hotels, restaurants, spas, and retail outlets, enhancing the overall employment experience. Additionally, the company prioritizes employee convenience through amenities such as free parking and provides ample opportunities for professional growth within one of New Mexico’s largest private employers.
