Position Summary
The Associate Director of Human Resources for the Provost's Administrative Services Team (PAST) will join a newly formed shared services team in the Office of the Provosts (OtP). In this position, you will provide HR leadership to the 10-plus units and more than 1500 employees the PAST Shared Services portfolio supports.
In your first year in this position, you will build and lead a team to learn the unique needs of your customers, develop policies, practices, and workflows to meet those needs, while working closely with University Human Resources to implement HR best practices across the PAST portfolio. Reporting to the Director of Shared Services for PAST, and as a member of the PAST leadership team, you will participate in strategic planning, including recruiting and hiring, employee engagement, workforce planning, helping shape the experience of administrators, faculty, staff, and students throughout the employee life cycle.
You will lead recruitment efforts by writing engaging position descriptions and job advertisements while incorporating strategies to build robust and diverse pools of applicants. You will coach and train supervisors and leadership on best practices for running searches, including proactively removing roadblocks for applicants and building diverse and inclusive active recruitment strategies. Your team will be the first point of contact for new employees as you onboard them to their units and the university. You will build out and refine onboarding processes that set up new employees for success and begin the process of retaining them.
You will work with division leaders and University HR on employee engagement strategies, performance evaluation and professional development, supervisor training and coaching, and employee and labor relations (ELR) needs. Your team will also manage the employee exit process including exit interviews and surveys, collecting data, identify trends, and proposing initiatives to better engage, develop, and retain our faculty and staff.
As the leader for Human Resources in PAST, you will work closely with university leaders, administrators, supervisors, search chairs, and hiring managers, providing strategic consultation and excellent customer service to help them meet their HR goals. Using knowledge and creativity, you will also help guide them to solutions that align with UO policies and practices. You'll keep your finger on the pulse of emerging trends, issues, concerns, and best practices, sharing your assessments with leadership, and adjusting priorities and strategic approaches accordingly.
As the ADHR, you will also be responsible for overseeing executive recruitment for the Office of the Provost (OtP), working with executive search firms, project managers, and stakeholders from across campus to ensure a seamless, inclusive, equitable search process for all executive searches. You must be able to build a strong relationship with University HR and maintain solid knowledge of the policies and procedures surrounding executive searches and their individually negotiated contracts.
While there is room for a lot of innovation and creativity in this role, there is also a high level of support. This position will be part of a team of HR professionals across campus and will work closely with University Human Resources professionals who can provide guidance, consultation, subject-matter expertise, and a sounding board for new ideas.
