HR Manager

Job Title: HR Manager

Location: Middletown, PA

Type: Direct Hire

Contractor Work Model: Onsite

Overview

We’re looking for a hands-on, high-impact HR Professional to support our clients distribution center. This is not a desk-only HR role. This person will be embedded in the operation, working directly on the production floor, building relationships, solving problems in real time, and driving a strong employee experience.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, high-volume environment, enjoys wearing multiple hats, and isn’t afraid to roll up their sleeves. You’ll act as a true partner to leadership—balancing strategic thinking with day-to-day execution to support business goals.

Important: This is a fully onsite role requiring flexibility, including one evening shift per week.

Responsibilities

Own and execute the full HR lifecycle for the distribution center, including:

• Full-cycle recruiting in a high-volume environment (sourcing, interviewing, hiring)

• New hire onboarding and orientation

• Employee relations, including investigations and terminations

• Coaching and advising managers on performance, engagement, and policy application

• Training and development initiatives

• Driving employee engagement and retention efforts

• Managing leaves of absence (FMLA, ADA, Workers’ Compensation, etc.)

• Supporting safety initiatives in partnership with operations

• Handling unemployment claims and case management

• Auditing timekeeping and ensuring compliance

• Leading HR presence on the production floor—building trust and accessibility with employees

Requirements

• 6+ years of HR experience in a distribution, warehouse, or manufacturing environment

• Proven experience in full-cycle HR within a high-volume setting

• Strong working knowledge of federal and state employment laws

• Hands-on experience managing complex leave cases (FMLA, ADA, Workers’ Comp)

• Comfortable working directly on the production floor and engaging with employees at all levels

• Demonstrated ability to handle sensitive situations with professionalism and sound judgment

• A proactive, approachable, and solution-oriented mindset

• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment

• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills

Additional Requirements

• Willingness to work flexible hours, including one evening per week

• Ability to work onsite full-time

• Bachelor’s degree preferred

• Experience with timekeeping systems preferred

• Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook)

• Bilingual skills are a plus

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a true business partner role, not just transactional HR. You’ll have the opportunity to influence culture, drive change, and make a visible impact on both employees and operations every day.
