POSITION SUMMARY
Work for a large, established medical device manufacturer undergoing significant expansions in the northern Chicago suburbs.

The ideal candidate is a strong HR generalist who has successfully supported a growing or changing organization and is comfortable working closely with Directors, Managers, Supervisors, and hourly employees. Manufacturing experience is required, with experience in a regulated industry such as medical device, automotive, aerospace, pharmaceutical, or other highly regulated manufacturing environments strongly preferred.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Serve as the primary HR Business Partner for a rapidly growing manufacturing operation, supporting approximately 300 employees as the organization scales.
  • Partner closely with Directors, Managers, and Supervisors on employee relations, performance management, organizational changes, staffing needs, and other complex HR matters.
  • Coach and counsel leaders through difficult employee situations, performance issues, disciplinary actions, and other sensitive conversations.
  • Develop and implement staffing and workforce plans aligned with business growth, production requirements, and organizational needs.
  • Support the organization through significant workforce expansion, including the transition from approximately 100 employees to 250–300 employees.
  • Partner with leadership on organizational design, departmental restructuring, organizational development, and evolving reporting structures.
  • Provide comprehensive HRBP support across the employee lifecycle, including recruiting strategy, onboarding, performance management, compensation, employee relations, development, and retention.
  • Support managers and employees through organizational changes and help ensure effective communication throughout periods of transition.
  • Provide guidance regarding compensation practices, promotions, job changes, performance expectations, and other employee-related decisions.
  • Develop and deliver HR-related training and manager development programs as needed.
  • Partner with leadership to identify workforce trends, organizational challenges, and opportunities for improving employee engagement and effectiveness.
  • Maintain a visible presence throughout the manufacturing operation and build strong working relationships with employees at all levels.
