Leah Knobler

Hello! My name is Leah (lay-uh, like the Princess). 👋🏼

People & Talent Strategic Leader


 

I'm passionate about cultivating high-performing teams comprised of great humans. I've spent the last nine years building out the People function (Talent Acquisition, Total Rewards, Business Partners, People Ops) at Help Scout, where I was the 25th hire. Today, we're a team of 140.

I currently serve as the VP of People overseeing our mighty team of seven. I especially love:

  • Building high performing teams and performance management processes

  • Creating dynamic, effective hiring processes that identify top talent

  • Remote work best practices

  • Employer branding

  • Culture and engagement

  • Diversity, equity, & inclusion

  • Video production

Why yes, I would love to speak at your conference/event/panel/podcast/company!

I’ve given a plethora of talks on all things recruiting, DEI, and remote company culture in a variety of settings and formats. Reach out if you’d like to work together!
