Strengthening HR for Building, Construction Companies

Amid the need for strategic HR management, a building- and construction-focused PE firm sought a seasoned HR generalist to steer vital initiatives and oversee a distributed workforce for multiple portfolio companies. With the departure of the HR leader, the company required immediate support to uphold employee relations and operational excellence.

The building and construction firm, encompassing 13 locations, encountered the challenge of nurturing a large and diverse workforce spanning multiple states. As they worked to strengthen HR functions and initiate key projects, the absence of a dedicated HR leader prompted the need for a temporary HR generalist capable of driving transformation in this dynamic environment.

This accomplished professional not only managed key HR projects but also played a crucial role in employee relations, ensuring seamless communication and support during the transitional phase.

Through this partnership, the manufacturing firm achieved strategic milestones in HR management. The HR generalist’s expertise guided projects such as benefits enrollment, handbook rollout and employee onboarding. Furthermore, the focus on employee relations led to enhanced communication channels, fostering a positive and engaging workplace environment.
