Talent Attraction & Engagement Partner

RISE Modular | Owatonna & Plymouth, Minnesota

Help us build the team — and the experience that keeps people here.

RISE Modular is changing the way buildings are built, and we're growing the team that makes it possible.

We're looking for a Recruiter & Employee Engagement Partner to join our People Operations team. This isn't a traditional recruiting role where you'll spend your entire day behind a computer filling requisitions.

Yes, you'll recruit — everything from skilled trades and production employees to supervisors, technical professionals and corporate positions. But you'll also play an important role in building the employee experience at RISE.

You'll spend time in our Owatonna manufacturing facility getting to know our employees, partnering with leaders and finding new ways to connect RISE with the communities where we live and work.

If you love recruiting but also believe the best People teams should be visible, approachable and connected to their employees, this could be a great fit.

What You'll Do

Recruit Great People

Own full-cycle recruiting for a diverse mix of hourly and salaried positions across RISE.

You'll

Recruit skilled trades, production and other non-exempt positions for our Owatonna manufacturing facility.
Recruit professional, technical, supervisory and other exempt positions supporting both Owatonna and our Plymouth corporate office.
Partner directly with hiring managers to understand their needs and develop practical recruiting strategies.
Source candidates through job boards, social media, networking, referrals, community partnerships and direct outreach.
Screen candidates, coordinate interviews, extend offers and help create a strong candidate experience from first contact through start date.
Build talent pipelines before positions become urgent.
Develop relationships with technical schools, colleges, workforce organizations and other community partners.
Participate in job fairs, hiring events and other creative recruiting initiatives.
Track recruiting activity and results and use data to continuously improve how we attract talent.

Build Community Connections

Help make RISE a recognized employer in the communities where we operate.

You'll

Build relationships with schools, trade programs, workforce development organizations and community groups.
Identify opportunities for RISE employees and leaders to participate in community events and volunteer activities.
Represent RISE at career fairs, community events and local partnerships.
Develop creative ways to introduce people to careers in modular manufacturing and construction.
Help strengthen RISE's employment brand throughout southern Minnesota and the Twin Cities.

Help Build the RISE Employee Experience

Recruiting people is only part of the job. We want them to feel connected once they're here.

You'll partner with the People Operations team and leaders to:

Develop employee engagement activities and events.
Help strengthen recognition programs and employee appreciation efforts.
Create opportunities for employees across departments and shifts to connect.
Gather employee feedback and help turn good ideas into action.
Support new-hire engagement and early-tenure retention initiatives.
Help communicate what's happening across the organization.
Be a visible and approachable People Operations presence for employees.
Bring new ideas for making RISE a place where people want to join, contribute and stay.

What We're Looking For

We're less interested in finding someone who checks every HR box and more interested in finding someone who knows how to connect with people and get things done.

You may be a great fit if you have

Experience recruiting both hourly/non-exempt and professional/exempt positions.
Experience recruiting in manufacturing, construction, skilled trades or another high-volume environment strongly preferred.
Strong sourcing skills and the ability to find candidates rather than simply wait for applications.
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
The confidence to work directly with everyone from production employees to senior leaders.
An interest in employee engagement, culture and community involvement.
Strong organization and the ability to manage multiple searches and priorities simultaneously.
A willingness to try new things, solve problems and jump in where needed.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who likes people.

Someone who enjoys walking the floor, talking with employees, attending a community event, calling a candidate, brainstorming a recruiting campaign and helping put together an employee event — sometimes all in the same week.

Where You'll Work

This role will have a strong presence at our Owatonna manufacturing facility and will also support recruiting and People initiatives at our Plymouth corporate office.

Regular presence in Owatonna is an important part of the role. Building relationships with our employees and leaders can't be done entirely from behind a screen.

Some travel between Owatonna, Plymouth and community events throughout the region should be expected.

Why RISE?

We're building something different.

RISE Modular combines construction with advanced manufacturing to build large-scale modular projects in a safer, more controlled and more efficient environment.

And as RISE grows, we're equally focused on building the organization behind the buildings.

You'll join a People Operations team with an opportunity to influence how we recruit, engage and connect with our employees — and you'll have plenty of room to bring your own ideas.

If you're looking for a highly structured recruiting job where every process has already been built, this probably isn't it.

If you like building, improving, experimenting and seeing the impact of your work firsthand, we'd like to meet you.

Come help us build the people side of RISE.

The salary range for this role is $75,000 – $90,000*(Annually). Actual salaries may vary based on several factors, including but not limited to external market data, internal equity, location, and candidate skill set and experience. Base pay is just one component of Rise Modular’s Total Rewards package for employees. Rise Modular provides a variety of benefits to eligible employees, including medical, dental and vision benefits, life and disability insurance, 401k participation, paid holidays, and paid time off.

Above all else, our team members should have a positive attitude and be flexible as to job responsibilities. We have a collaborative, team focused, and fast-paced environment and welcome team members who are interested in working for a progressive and innovative organization.
