Our Team

We provide an offboarding experience that empowers people and businesses to thrive.

Our Motivation

People ultimately drive a company’s success. That’s why HR teams invest in technology to simplify many parts of the employment lifecycle—like recruiting, hiring, and retaining top talent. But one area in the cycle that often gets overlooked is separations.

Our mission is to provide an offboarding experience that empowers businesses and people to thrive. We help employers mitigate risks, reduce costs and improve equity by simplifying separations in compliance with corporate policy and employment laws.

With Onwards HR, there’s a better way to say goodbye.

Best,
Sarah Rodehorst, CEO & Cofounder

Our Story

Onwards HR was born over coffee, omelets, and grits. Seventeen years after they met on the campus of Georgia Tech, Sarah Rodehorst and Janice Yu Edwards reunited for breakfast at Flying Biscuit. The two had previously worked together at Connecture, a health insurance sales automation software startup. After going their separate ways, Sarah and Janice continued to launch B2B SaaS applications in the HR industry, boasting a combined 40+ years of experience. Together the two developed a first-of-its-kind offboarding technology, which they launched in 2019.

Onwards HR improves the offboarding process for employers and employees.
