Senior Human Resources Generalist - Distribution Center

You'll be the HR partner our bakery managers, SHIPP distribution, and Support Center leaders call first. Here's what a Tuesday might look like.

1. 00 a.m. A bakery manager calls. A team member has missed three shifts. You walk her through what to do next and help her write it up the right way.
2. 30 a.m. You start an investigation into a complaint at the Support Center. You set up interviews, take careful notes and keep every detail private.

11:00 a.m. You sit down with a manager whose team member is on a performance plan. You help him plan a clear, fair conversation.

1:00 p.m. You drive to one of our bakeries. You walk the floor, check posters and files, and listen to what the team has to say.

1. 00 p.m. You hold an exit conversation with a team member who's leaving. You log the real reason in UKG so we can learn from it.
2. 00 p.m. A new state leave law takes effect. You use AI to summarize it and draft the handbook update, then check it against the law and flag what managers need to know.

4:45 p.m. Hiring managers keep asking for help with job postings. You build an AI prompt that turns their notes into a solid first draft, so they wait minutes instead of days.

No two days look the same. If you'd rather handle a wide mix of work than go deep on one thing, you'll love this job.

Position Summary The Sr. HR Generalist owns employee relations, investigations, exits and performance support for our Support Center, SHIPP distribution center and company-owned bakeries.
