What are the responsibilities and job description for the Human Resources Generalist position at Balco, Inc.?
Position Summary
Balco, recognized as a Great Place to Work for four consecutive years, is looking for a passionate and driven HR Generalist who thrives in a fast-paced manufacturing environment and enjoys being deeply connected to the employee experience.
In this role, no two days will look the same. One moment you may be supporting a leader through a difficult conversation with an employee; the next, you could be walking the floor, connecting with employees, helping coordinate onboarding for a new hire, assisting with a leave of absence, supporting recruiting efforts, or partnering with operations leaders to improve team engagement and retention.
The ideal candidate is a self-starter who enjoys handling issues at the lowest possible level through communication, trust, accountability, and partnership. We are looking for someone who brings energy, professionalism, sound judgment, and a team-first mindset while helping foster a workplace where employees feel supported, valued, and challenged to grow.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys balancing employee advocacy with business partnership and who wants to make a visible impact on culture, leadership development, and operational success.
