Helping Build the Team Behind the Power

At Wolverine, we help keep the lights on by delivering reliable, affordable power to the communities we proudly serve. As a member owned, mission driven electric utility, we're committed to safety, reliability, and long-term energy solutions that support Michigan for generations to come.

We're currently seeking a Human Resources Coordinator to join our team in Cadillac. In this role, you'll help shape the employee experience from a candidate's first interaction with Wolverine through onboarding and beyond. You'll play a key role in recruiting and hiring talented employees, coordinating onboarding activities, supporting employee engagement efforts, and assisting with a variety of human resources initiatives that help our people and organization thrive.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys building relationships, staying organized, managing multiple priorities, and making a positive impact on both candidates and employees.

A Day in the Life

No two days are exactly alike. Some days you'll be coordinating interviews and helping managers fill important positions.

Daily work may include:

• Coordinating recruiting activities from job posting through hiring and onboarding
• Reviewing applications, screening candidates, scheduling interviews, and maintaining candidate communications
• Partnering with HR and hiring managers to understand staffing needs and support hiring efforts across the organization
• Coordinating pre-employment activities
• Preparing for new employee onboarding and helping create a positive experience
• Supporting employee engagement initiatives, recognition programs, appreciation events, and retirement celebrations
• Assisting with benefits administration, employee inquiries, and HR-related processes
• Maintaining recruiting, onboarding, and personnel records with accuracy and confidentiality
• Supporting HR projects, communications, reporting, and other department initiatives as needed

What We're Looking For

We're seeking an organized, service-oriented HR professional who is passionate about helping people and creating an experience that is positive for our employees.

The ideal candidate will have:

• An associate degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Communications, or a related field
• At least two years of hands-on recruiting experience required, with experience supporting the hiring process from candidate sourcing through onboarding
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines
• The confidence to partner with hiring managers, coordinate hiring activities, and support recruitment efforts across a variety of positions
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Experience working with applicant tracking systems, HRIS platforms, Microsoft Office applications, and other business software
• The ability to maintain strict confidentiality while providing exceptional service to candidates and employees
• Benefits administration experience is a plus
