  • Handle employee concerns, grievances, discipline, and conflict resolution with fairness and good judgment
  • Run the performance management process and coach managers on setting goals and delivering meaningful reviews
  • Conduct exit interviews and turn the feedback into real improvements

Take Care of the Essentials

  • Oversee payroll to make sure everyone is paid accurately and on time

  • Keep employee records accurate, organized, and confidential

Keep Us Compliant

  • Ensure compliance with federal, state, and local employment laws
  • Lead workplace investigations and represent the company in employment hearings when needed
  • Prepare and submit required labor and employment reports
  • Stay sharp on HR best practices, industry trends, and regulatory changes


What you bring

  • 5–8 years of progressive HR experience, including at least 3 years leading or managing HR
  • Associate degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Accounting, or a related field (equivalent experience counts too)
  • Background in manufacturing, particularly another industrial setting is a big plus

  • Sound judgment and a proven ability to handle sensitive matters with discretion
