+ Partnering with legal counsel on employment law matters, ensuring business decisions minimize risk while achieving objectives.

+ Engaging in labor relations, including grievance resolution, in unionized settings, fostering positive relationships with unions or Works Councils.

The role also encompasses managing medical accommodations, guiding corrective actions and performance improvement plans, and participating in HR/ER-related special projects.

What you bring to the table:

+ A Bachelor’s Degree in Human Resource Management, Organizational Psychology, Business, or a related field, with SHRM certification being a plus.

+ 3 – 5 years of experience in HR Generalist or Employee Relations roles within dynamic, global organizations.

+ Proven track record in handling investigations and navigating complex employee relations with discretion.

+ Comprehensive knowledge of HR processes and employment laws at the county/regional level.

+ Proficiency in HRIS systems and case management software.

+ Exceptional communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to manage sensitive information confidentially.

+ A commitment to high performance, customer focus, and the ability to influence and build strong relationships.
