  • Coach leaders regarding employee engagement, performance management, conflict resolution, communication and leadership practices.
  • Lead workplace investigations and ensure fair, timely and compliant resolution of employee concerns.
  • Use workforce data, employee-relations trends and organizational metrics to identify issues and support business decisions.
  • Lead HR and organizational change initiatives supporting operational improvement and continuous improvement.
  • Oversee employee recognition, engagement and other programs supporting a positive plant culture.
  • Ensure consistent application of HR policies and compliance with applicable employment and labor laws.
  • Work onsite and be willing to adjust hours as necessary to support a multi-shift manufacturing operation.
