About The Position

We are seeking a HR Compliance Program Manager to lead and evolve enterprise-wide employment compliance, social accountability, and workplace investigation programs across a dynamic manufacturing organization.

We are looking for a strategic thinker who can assess complex compliance challenges, identify opportunities for improvement, and build scalable solutions that strengthen both compliance outcomes and the employee experience. The successful candidate will work across manufacturing and corporate environments, partnering with HR, Legal, business leaders, and plant teams to drive programs that mitigate risk, promote ethical employment practices, and support organizational success. If you're energized by building programs, influencing change, simplifying complexity, and creating practical solutions to compliance challenges, we'd love to hear from you.
