Is it a red flag if the senior leaders are somewhat new?

Sorry for all the career questions, it’s just been weighing heavily on my mind.

I have been unemployed since August and it has been a struggle finding work. I am in the HR field. I finally get offered a job with a big company (you may have heard of it but to be safe I won’t say..think JP Morgan, AAA, Amazon big). It’s a step up from my last job, much more pay, work from home, boss and team seems great. I was so happy when they offered me the job. I told them I would love to accept but I need to look over the benefits and talk to my husband first. They gave me the weekend and I’m to officially accept tomorrow after I go through some questions.

One big question in my head, why is HR staff so new?I found out the HR manager has only been there a few months, the HR director almost a year, and so now I’m wondering why. The generalist has been there for 2 years. Other regions have been 15 years. I am wondering if it’s new or if some president cleaned house and brought in new people? Newly added Hr department for the region? I think it’s the latter judging from my research. Many of the long tenured HR staff are on the west coast. It makes me fearful that it’s a red flag. I would like to ask about it in a subtle way when I call them tomorrow but I don’t want to sound negative. I did forget to ask the question “Why is this position open?” To get more details. I am wondering if it’s too late to ask?
I am hoping this job isn’t too good to be true.
