About Us

At Prenuvo, we are on a mission to flip the paradigm from reactive “sick-care” to proactive health care. Our award-winning whole body scan is fast (under 1 hour), safe (MRI has no ionizing radiation), and non-invasive (no contrast). Our unique integrated stack of optimized hardware, software, and increasingly AI, coupled with the patient-centric experience of our clinics across North America, have allowed us to lead the charge against “we caught it too late again.” Prenuvo operates preventative screening clinics in Vancouver, Silicon Valley, Dallas, Boca Raton, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, New York City, and Chicago, with more clinics in North America and internationally in the next 2 years.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a strategic HR Benefits and Payroll expert to lead Payroll and Benefits operations in Canada, across multiple states in the USA, and internationally.

Lastly, this role would oversee the implementation of a global HRIS and would be responsible for the day-to-day management, governance and strategic utilization of the platform to ensure compliance, data protection, and optimization of data, analytics, and reporting, at scale.
