PHG Careers Updates

WHY WE’RE HIRING

The short answer? We’re looking to keep a good thing going.

An independently owned full-service marketing agency, Pinckney Hugo Group has grown consistently over the past 20 or so years. We’ve created bigger and better work, added to our capabilities and expanded to serve a wider range of regional, national and international clients. It’s all happened because we’ve been able to bring in incredibly talented and dedicated people to help build something special. And because we don’t plan on slowing down anytime soon, we’re posting career opportunities like this one.

THE JOB

HR Director

At PHG, we’ve become who we are by hiring the very best people in the business. And in order to keep it going, we need to start by hiring another one of those people – you. As Director of Human Resources, you’ll be responsible for helping us attract and retain top talent across our organization. Along the way, you’ll help ensure that our team members have the resources and experiences needed for a fulfilling and rewarding career path.

THE GOOD STUFF

We expect great things from our team members. So it’s only fair that you have high expectations for us too. From flexible schedules and work-from-home opportunities to competitive pay and parental bonding time, we’re always adding benefits to make working with us more, well, beneficial. Here are a few of the highlights.

• Work From Home – Some days you want the in-person experience, others you want to skip the commute and keep on the sweatpants. No problem. PHG team members can work from home two days a week – and we’ll supply the equipment to make it happen.
• Flex Time – Need to run out for a few hours for an appointment or personal issue? Go for it and make up the time on your schedule. Or if you need a whole day, go ahead and take it off with one of your seven flex days per year. We’re all about flexibility.
• Fridays!!! – Are three exclamation points overkill? Maybe, but we do get excited about the fact our office closes early every single Friday to give you a head start on the weekend… or happy hour.
• Parental Bonding Leave – We can’t help with the newfound lack of sleep, but we can give you more time to bond with your new baby, with up to eight weeks of paid time off.
• Doggos and Pups – Bring them on in! Our Syracuse office is dog-friendly… maybe even a little dog-obsessed.
• $$$ and Benefits – We understand that talented people are in high demand these days, and we’ll compensate you accordingly. In addition to generous pay and bonus opportunities, we also offer a 401K with company match, and full health and dental benefits.
