Human Resources Director

These include assessing staffing needs, establishing wage levels, designing training programs, devising ways to enhance employee satisfaction for talent retention and developing competitive benefit and compensation plans, among others.

Labor Relations Specialist

Labor relations specialists manage the relationship between management and employees. Their functions include representing the organization in the collective bargaining process, communicating with trade unions and mediating in employee disputes, among others.

HR Business Partner

A HR business partner works within a business unit creating strategies to ensure that procedural, resourcing and organizational goals are met through an organization’s human resources policy.

Human Resources Consultant

These professionals are typically contracted for specific projects such as benefit packages, the detection of talent within an organization, reward programs, integration after mergers and acquisitions, training and recruitment. A human resources consultant will analyze an organization’s current situation and needs and present project proposals to management for approval.
