Join Our Team
At Miro Manufacturing, we are proud of the culture we’ve built—one centered around great, hard-working people who show up for each other every day. We operate in a fast-paced manufacturing environment where there’s a shared sense of urgency, and everyone understands the importance of working together to get the job done.

We’re looking for a hands-on Human Resources Manager who thrives in that kind of environment—someone who values teamwork, flexibility, and being involved in every aspect of HR. This is a highly visible, solo HR role where you’ll partner closely with ownership and make a real impact on both the business and the employee experience.

This position is available due to an upcoming retirement, and we’re offering a unique opportunity for the right candidate to be mentored directly by the outgoing HR leader, ensuring a smooth transition and a deep understanding of our culture, processes, and people.

Successful Candidates Will Bring
  • A hands-on mindset, with the ability and desire to be involved in all areas of HR
  • Flexibility and adaptability – you’re comfortable with shifting priorities in a fast-moving environment
  • A collaborative approach and appreciation for working alongside hard-working, team-oriented people
  • High integrity with the ability to balance ownership expectations and employee needs
  • Strong organization, communication, and problem-solving skills

Qualifications
  • Associate’s degree in Human Resources Management, Business Administration, or a related field
  • 5+ years of progressive HR experience in a manufacturing environment (PHR/SPHR a plus)
  • Strong experience with OSHA, safety programs, and compliance is required
  • In-depth knowledge of benefit and retirement plans, including state and federal regulatory compliance
  • Operational knowledge of payroll policies, regulations, and procedures
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook; PowerPoint a plus)
  • Bilingual in Spanish and English is required

What You’ll Do
As the HR leader, you will oversee the full scope of human resources and serve as a trusted partner to both leadership and employees.

Leadership & Culture
  • Collaborate with owners and leadership on organizational planning and development
  • Help cultivate a positive, accountable, and high-energy workplace culture
  • Support a team environment where urgency and teamwork go hand-in-hand

  • Lead all OSHA and safety initiatives, including training, safety committees, and workers’ compensation
  • Ensure compliance with federal and state regulations
  • Update and maintain policies, procedures, and employee handbook

Payroll, Benefits & HR Operations
  • Process weekly payroll and maintain accurate records
  • Administer company 401(k) plan
  • Manage employee benefits, vendor relationships, and open enrollment

Engagement & Communication
  • Communicate effectively across all levels of the organization
  • Plan and execute employee events, including leadership meetings, appreciation days, and company gatherings
  • Build strong, trusted relationships internally and externally

Work Environment & Physical Requirements
  • Active role requiring movement between buildings (up to 8 miles walking weekly, indoors and outdoors year-round)
  • Ability to lift and carry up to 25 lbs

Why Miro Manufacturing?
  • Work with great people who take pride in what they do
