    Job Description

     
    HR Generalist
    Lantech | Louisville, KY
    Lantech is looking for an HR Generalist who enjoys being close to the business, building relationships with leaders and associates, and owning HR responsibilities from recruiting through the employee experience.
    This is a hands-on HR role supporting our manufacturing organization. The HR Generalist will be responsible for an assigned area of the business and will serve as a primary HR partner to its Team Leaders and associates.
    This role is a great fit for someone who doesn't want to specialize in just one area of HR. You'll recruit, coach leaders, support employees, work through employee-relations issues, help improve retention, and participate in projects that make our HR processes better.
    What You'll Do
    Support Leaders & Associates
    • Serve as a primary HR resource for assigned manufacturing areas
    • Build strong working relationships with Team Leaders, managers, and associates
    • Coach leaders through employee and performance situations
    • Support employee relations, attendance, performance, and corrective-action processes
    • Help leaders apply HR policies and practices consistently
    • Conduct employee conversations and workplace investigations as needed
    • Identify trends and proactively address workforce concerns
    Own Recruiting for Your Areas
    You'll own recruiting for the areas of the business you support, including:
    • Partnering with hiring leaders to understand staffing needs
    • Posting open positions
    • Creating and maintaining job descriptions and posting templates in Paycor
    • Reviewing applications and resumes
    • Conducting phone screens
    • Coordinating candidate assessments
    • Coordinating interviews with hiring leaders
    • Maintaining timely candidate communication
    • Following up with Team Leaders throughout the selection process
    • Supporting offers and pre-employment activities
    • Maintaining visibility into open positions and recruiting progress
    Our HR team works collaboratively, so recruiting assignments and support may shift based on business needs and overall team workload.
    Support Retention & Employee Development
    • Participate in retention efforts and identify workforce trends
    • Support new-hire integration and follow-up
    • Participate in employee engagement initiatives
    • Support employee development and internal movement
    • Help leaders identify opportunities to improve the associate experience
    Improve How HR Works
    We're actively working to simplify and improve our HR processes. You'll be expected to help us:
    • Develop and maintain HR standard work
    • Identify unnecessary administrative steps
    • Simplify workflows
    • Utilize technology and automation where appropriate
    • Improve HR documentation and processes
    • Cross-train with other members of the HR team
    • Provide backup coverage across HR functions
    The goal is to spend less time on unnecessary administration and more time working directly with our people and leaders.
    What We're Looking For
    We're looking for someone who is comfortable working in a fast-moving environment and who can move easily between recruiting, employee relations, leader coaching, and day-to-day HR needs.
    The right person will:
    • Build trust quickly with employees and leaders
    • Be comfortable working directly on the manufacturing floor
    • Communicate clearly and professionally
    • Handle sensitive employee matters with discretion
    • Be organized and able to manage multiple priorities
    • Follow through and hold others accountable
    • Use good judgment when situations aren't black and white
    • Be willing to jump in where the team needs help
    • Look for better and simpler ways to get work done
    • Enjoy being part of a collaborative HR team rather than working in a narrow HR specialty
    Qualifications
    • Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business, or a related field preferred
    • HR Generalist, employee relations, recruiting, or similar HR experience preferred
    • Experience supporting a manufacturing, operations, or similar employee population is a plus
    • Experience with applicant tracking and/or HRIS systems preferred
    • Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills
    • Ability to manage confidential information appropriately
    What Success Looks Like
    Success in this role isn't just completing HR transactions.
    We want someone who becomes a trusted partner to the areas they support, helps us hire and retain great people, provides strong support to our Team Leaders, follows through on commitments, and continuously looks for ways to make HR simpler and more effective.
    You'll be part of an HR team where people have clear areas of ownership but are also expected to cross-train, support one another, and step in when business needs change.
