The Audience
Western New York's HR Community

BNHRA members are HR practitioners: generalists, specialists, and senior leaders from companies across every industry in Western New York. They range from students entering the field to CHROs with decades in the profession, from solo HR departments to enterprise HR teams.

They decide which vendors get evaluated, which platforms get piloted, and which candidates get placed. They're the first call when a company needs staffing help, legal counsel, or an HR technology solution. Sponsoring BNHRA provides you the opportunity to directly connect with Buffalo's HR community.
