Human Resource Generalist

Join a tight-knit, people-first HR team supporting a growing manufacturing company that values its employees as much as its innovation. As an HR Generalist you’ll wear multiple hats—from managing plant-level hiring to providing day-to-day HR support, ensuring compliance, and driving engagement initiatives across two production facilities.

If you're a recruiting pro who enjoys the variety and impact of full-spectrum HR work, this is your opportunity to grow with a company that’s invested in its culture and community.

What You’ll Do

• Own full-cycle recruitment for plant-level roles, from job posting through new hire onboarding
• Facilitate orientations and Dayforce setup for a smooth employee experience
• Serve as a trusted HR contact for employees—handling questions, concerns, and policy guidance
• Support employee relations and coach managers through performance and disciplinary conversations
• Maintain accurate, compliant employee records and reports in Dayforce
• Assist with benefits support, open enrollment, and HR compliance audits
• Help plan and execute engagement initiatives, wellness programs, and recognition events
• Coordinate internship programs and community outreach (including scholarships)
• Partner with the HR Manager and Director on continuous improvement and special projects
  
  

What You’ll Bring

• 2–4 years of experience as an HR Generalist, ideally in a manufacturing environment
• Strong background in recruiting, employee relations, and HR compliance
• Experience using Dayforce or a similar HRIS system
• Working knowledge of employment laws and HR best practices
• Clear, confident communicator with a high level of integrity and discretion
• Proactive problem-solver who thrives in a fast-paced, hands-on role
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook)
  
  

Why Join?

• Be part of a people-first, community-driven manufacturing company
• Make a visible impact across two plants and help shape employee experience
• Work for a company that values trust, transparency, and team collaboration
• Competitive pay and full benefits
• Room to grow in a company that supports development and innovation
