Role:
- Conducting investigations from intake through findings
- Performance management and corrective action
- Involuntary terminations
- Reviewing/drafting sensitive ER documentation
- ER case management and case audits
- Employment-law risk assessment
- Using ER data to identify trends and organizational risk
Must have-Apply only if you meet all of the requirements:
- 10+ years of HR experience
- 5+ years focused on Employee Relations
- Someone who is hands-on with ER cases, not just a general HRBP
- Has personally conducted complex workplace investigations
- Experience with employee complaints, misconduct, harassment, discrimination, and retaliation matters
- Strong performance management experience
- Experience with PIPs, written warnings, and corrective actions
- Experience advising on involuntary terminations
- Comfortable coaching and pushing back on managers and senior leaders
- Strong understanding of employment law and ER risk
- Excellent writing and documentation skills
- Has written/reviewed investigation reports, case summaries, corrective actions, and termination documentation
- Experience maintaining detailed, audit-ready ER case files
- Ideally has used HR Acuity or another ER case-management system
- Can use ER data to identify trends, risks, and problem areas
- Experience working with HRBPs, Legal, Compliance and senior leadership
- Bachelor's degree based on the current minimum qualifications

- Always sends difficult cases to Legal
