Selling to HR directors

HR directors look after hiring, benefits, payroll, compliance, training and employee relations, usually with a small team. In mid-size companies they're the senior people person and pick the vendors for benefits, HR software, background checks, training and recruiting. In large companies they tend to run one function or one region.

Their buying is driven by deadlines and risk: open enrollment, a hiring push, a new state to employ people in, an audit. Messages that work are concrete about time saved per employee, compliance gaps closed or roles filled faster. Benefits brokers, payroll and HR software, recruiting and staffing firms, training providers and employee-wellbeing companies sell to this list.

HR directors list questions

Counts as of November 13, 2026. Your own count is free and leaves out anyone you already have; after that it's 100% usage-based: pay per lead, no subscription.

How many HR directors are there in the US?

509,118 people in the US at US-headquartered companies match this list's filters, counted on November 13, 2026. 133,181 (26%) have a mobile and 465,973 (92%) a work email. Your own count can differ: it leaves out anyone you've already bought and anyone on your exclusion list.

Which job titles count as HR director?

Directors whose title names human resources, HR or people: HR Director, Director of Human Resources, Director of HR Operations, Director of People Operations, People & Culture Director. A bare "hr" isn't matched inside other words, so titles like Director of Threat Intelligence stay out.

Can I target HR directors at companies with 250+ staff?

Yes. Set Company size in your Search lane and the free estimate counts just those.

How much does a HR directors lead list cost?

100% usage-based: pay per lead, no subscription. Search is 5¢ a person for the first 50,000 in a month, 4¢ up to 250,000, then 2.5¢, paid from a prepaid balance. So 1,000 HR directors cost $50. The estimate is free, you only pay for the people you export, and anyone you've bought before is never charged again.

How current are the contacts?

Every record is refreshed at least every 90 days and pulled live when you export, so job changes since our count show up in your file. The numbers on this page are recounted every month.
