Associate Human Resources - Temecula

The Associate Human Resources Manager position is a developmental opportunity that could lead to a position as a Human Resources Manager in an 18 month timeframe.  The emphasis is to hire someone with proven Human Resources Manager skills and teach them about Milgard and our business.  The four essential components a successful Associate HR Manager must learn are: Milgard?s pace; Milgard Performance System; Philosophy; and affinity for people development. During the eighteen-month timeframe, the Associate HR Manager may fill any number of job roles.  Here in Tacoma at our Corporate Campus, we have six different locations within which the Associate HR Manager can hone his/her skills to prepare for possible future Management opportunities.  We will employ a rotational program so as to expose the Associate HRM to as many opportunities and learning experiences within the six different Milgard Human Resources offices as possible.  An 18-month developmental plan will be developed to ensure the Associate HR Manager has the opportunity to develop the skills and attributes needed to be successful at Milgard.  Upon successful completion of training, the Associate HR Manager may be placed at a location.  Flexibility to relocate is preferred.
