The strongest candidates will bring credibility in an industrial setting, curiosity about how work is performed, and the ability to help people move through change. You will take accountability, communicate clearly, prioritize and execute, and contribute to a safe, inclusive and collaborative environment.**WHAT WE OFFER** · Competitive compensation packages, including pay-for-performance variable pay as well as recognition and rewards programs· Flexible spending accounts and generous employer contribution to the HSA· 401(k), employer match up to 6%, additional employer retirement income contribution (no vesting period), and a nonqualified deferred compensation plan· Holiday Pay: 10 holidays and one flexible holiday of your choice.· Alcoa has been chosen as one of America’s Greatest Workplaces 2023 by Newsweek**Ready to turn ideas into practical improvements and help teams build lasting capability?
