You will be expected to grasp the financial standing of your business unit, understand its mid-range strategic plans, immerse yourself in its unique culture, and stay abreast of its competitive environment.

• You will serve as a trusted advisor to managers and supervisors, providing expert feedback and counsel on a wide range of employee-related matters. This includes guiding them through performance improvement plans, disciplinary actions, and general employee concerns, ensuring fair and consistent application of policies.

You will be responsible for gathering facts, preparing comprehensive summation reports of your findings, and making well-reasoned recommendations for outcomes, always maintaining objectivity and confidentiality.
• You will work collaboratively with various internal HR functions, including Benefits, Payroll, and HRIS, to ensure the smooth and efficient administration of HR services and to support broader HR initiatives.
