The Role

We’re seeking a passionate and dedicated Human Resources Business Partner who brings enthusiasm, decisiveness, strong decision-making ability and HR expertise to the table. You will be an integral part of driving organizational effectiveness, managing talent, and ensuring that the business is equipped with the resources and strategies it needs to succeed while collaborating with a dynamic and diverse team to achieve shared goals.

If you enjoy tackling challenges with positivity and a bit of humor, you’ll feel right at home here.

• Provide guidance on employee relations matters, facilitating conflict resolution, and ensuring a fair and transparent corrective action/discipline process. Conduct effective and thorough investigations when needed.
• Assist with the orientation program to welcome new associates, ensuring they understand the company’s culture, policies, and procedures. Oversee the offboarding process, including conducting exit interviews.
• Manage the annual performance review process, providing support to leaders on performance management. Lead the merit and bonus process, ensuring alignment with the organization’s performance-based culture and compensation strategy.
• Monitor workplace practices to ensure compliance with applicable employment laws. Provide interpretation and guidance on policies, partnering with the legal department as necessary.

• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build relationships at all levels of the organization.
• Demonstrated ability to manage complex HR initiatives and work collaboratively with leadership teams.
• In-depth knowledge of HR principles, employment laws, and regulations.
• Exceptional problem-solving skills and the ability to manage sensitive situations with discretion and confidentiality.
• Experience with HRIS systems, performance management tools, and employee development programs.
  
  

What Sets You Apart

• Ability to adapt quickly in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.
• Proven track record of driving change and delivering measurable results in HR functions.
• High level of professionalism, integrity, and commitment to maintaining confidentiality.
