Reports to: Sr. HR Manager, HQ

Location: Brownsburg, Indiana (On-site)

Sur La Table's Brownsburg Distribution Center (~120 employees year-round, scaling to ~375 during peak) needs a dedicated HR leader who can own recruiting, workforce administration, and employee relations across 396,000 square feet of operation. As HR Manager, Distribution Center, you will be the single HR point person managers rely on for answers, candidates count on to move quickly, and leadership looks to when workforce decisions need to be grounded in data.

In your first six months, success means having a seasonal hiring pipeline built and producing results, a hiring dashboard that leadership trusts, attendance and timekeeping running cleanly, and a new hire experience that surfaces actionable trends through structured check-ins.

Own full-cycle recruiting for all BDC roles — posting, screening, interviewing, offers, and Day 1 clearance — with volume increasing during peak and seasonal windows.

Build a direct seasonal hiring pipeline through career fairs, community outreach, and local sourcing, starting with a sourcing plan in your first week.

Track hiring progress and share it with leadership through regular check-ins and a hiring dashboard you own.

Manage temp staffing operations, including agency relationships, onboarding/offboarding, and hours submission.

Manage attendance tracking, timecard edits, call-off documentation, and policy enforcement consistently, accurately, and with care.

Own the new hire experience end to end — facilitate orientation, ensure every system and document is ready before Day 1, and run structured 15/45/90-day check-ins that surface trends for leadership.
