• Ensure performance management is timely, fair, consistently documented, and completed in accordance with applicable company and Human Resources policies, including development plans, corrective action, and termination recommendations
• Partner with Human Resources and other appropriate functions on employee concerns, attendance, punctuality, timekeeping, overtime validation, workplace investigations, dispute-resolution matters, and other employee-relations issues
• Use regular team, leader, skip-level, focus-group, and new-hire interactions to promote two-way communication and connect individual performance to organizational strategy and customer outcomes
• Review employee-engagement results, communicate findings, establish meaningful action plans, and monitor progress throughout the year
• Promote a collaborative, respectful, inclusive, and high-performing environment and model company culture, values, allyship, inclusive leadership, and customer orientation
• Ensure accurate account documentation, compliance with state and federal collection requirements, information privacy, secure handling of company-sensitive information, and adherence to applicable policies and controls
