HR Manager Jobs in Milwaukee, WI

A Human Resources (HR) Manager plays a crucial role in overseeing and implementing the HR policies, procedures, and programs of a company. They are responsible for areas such as recruitment, compensation, benefits, training, employee relations, and maintaining the safety of the workforce. They ensure that the company operates within the legal framework and remains compliant with employment and labor laws. Furthermore, HR Managers contribute to the development of the company's strategic goals and ensure that human resources align with these objectives.

To excel as a HR Manager, one should possess excellent communication, decision-making, leadership, and problem-solving skills.

Certification from recognized bodies, such as the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) or the HR Certification Institute (HRCI), can enhance credibility and job prospects. Prior to becoming a HR Manager, individuals might have roles such as HR Assistant, HR Specialist, or HR Generalist to gain relevant experience and skills.
