About the Founder

 Eric Pommier, SPHR, is the founder and Chief Operating Officer of EfficiencEase. With over 25 years of experience leading operations, HR, and compliance in mission-driven organizations, Eric helps nonprofits and small businesses build systems that grow with them. 

 Most recently, Eric served as Senior Director of Expansion at a nonprofit workforce development organization. In a prior operational leadership role there, he oversaw HR, compliance, IT, student services, finance, and facilities, led cross-functional teams, and guided the organization through national accreditation. 

Earlier in his career, Eric directed state and federally funded early childhood education programs serving 500+ families, managing a multimillion-dollar federal budget and a team of more than 75 staff. He also served as a regional director for a statewide human services organization, overseeing community-based programs in family support, child abuse prevention, and early childhood development. His career began in community-based mental health, where he worked directly with children and families while building training systems and cross-agency partnerships; a foundation that continues to shape his belief that efficiency should support people, not exhaust them. Running large, grant-funded programs taught him what every small business owner learns eventually: payroll, people, and compliance don't wait for a bigger team. 

 Eric holds a Bachelor of Arts in English/Literature from Kansas State University, is a Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR), and earned the HRCI Certificate in Employment Law in 2026. He has served in advisory and board roles supporting education, workforce development, and organizational quality initiatives.
