Talent Acquisition Program Manager - Military / Veteran Programs

What You Will Do

Today, Clarios employs veterans throughout the company, and we would like to employ more. This position is new to the company so we are looking for a program manager who has experience developing and building programs to help a company become an employer of choice for veterans. In this role, you will bring your unique understanding and experience to develop and implement strategies to engage with the veteran community, support veteran employees, and foster long-term retention. This is more of a program building / management role than a traditional recruiting role although you will own some requisitions and recruiting savvy is important. In this role, you could work in Milwaukee and be in the office in our hybrid, three-days-a-week model. However, we would also welcome applicants from Chicago, the Toledo or Detroit area, or the St Joseph or Kansas City area.

How You Will Do It

• Build and manage a military recruitment and retention strategy including outreach, supplements to our new hire orientation, mentoring or buddy programs, and critical outside partnerships.
• Pipeline future employees for Clarios and build the support structure needed to aid in their long-term growth and success.
• Partner with our recruiters, plant locations, supervisors, HR, Total Rewards, Talent Management, Learning & Development to elevate our offerings to the unique needs of veterans and military personnel.
• Create a nationwide resource group for our veterans and military personnel.
• Elevate our brand as a military-friendly and military-ready place to work.
• Manage critical requisitions where prior military experience would be preferred.

What We Look For

• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field (or equivalent experience). 
• Some combination of full-cycle recruiting experience (4+), military service (2+) and years launching a corporate program (1+).
• In-depth knowledge of military culture, experience working with veterans, or personal military service.
• Strong understanding of federal and state laws related to veteran employment and benefits. 
• Commitment to promoting inclusion and diversity within the workplace.
• Strong understanding of manufacturing environments similar to ours
