HR Business Partner | Consumer Products Manufacturing

Compensation: $90,000 to $110,000 + bonus
Benefits: Comprehensive benefits package
Overview
A multi-site consumer goods manufacturer needs an on-site HR lead for one of its smaller plants in the Pittsburgh region. The parent organization runs several facilities across the country, and this person would be the go-to HR resource at this location, partnering with plant management and spending real time with hourly and salaried staff.
The company sees this as a stepping stone. The long-term plan is for this role to grow into HR oversight across more than one site.

- Drive site-level recruiting, onboarding, and retention
- Keep the site in line with employment law and company policy
- Stay visible on the production floor so employees know who to come to
- Help roll out HR systems and process improvements
- Report site trends and concerns up to HR leadership
What They Need
- Bachelor’s degree preferred
- 5+ years in HR within manufacturing or warehousing
- Union environment experience preferred; strong candidates without it who show they can pick it up will be considered
- Able to handle sensitive employee matters independently and judge when escalation is warranted
- Builds trust easily with everyone from the floor to the front office
- HRIS experience a plus, especially helping with an implementation
- Must be local; relocation is not offered
