As an Industrial Relations Representative, I worked with the employees and the union in honoring the union contract, negotiating grievances, coaching supervisors, and resolving employee issues. I also participated in three union negotiations as the person in charge of language development for the Company and preparing proposals during the process and getting the contract books printed once an agreement was reached. I was well respected by union leadership and was told by several stewards and shop committee persons that they appreciated my integrity and even missed me when I left.

I oversaw the recruiting and onboarding of professional salaried positions for all domestic US Pratt & Whitney locations. My team hired over 2000 people per year and 500 interns. My group also ran the leadership development program and worked with other organizations across UTC to standardize practices such as developing a behavior based interview guide, telephone interview guide and hiring process that is still being utilized today. After leaving that position, I routinely was called to help out in process improvements and the standard work that I created was utilized to help offshore some routine, non-value added staffing and onboarding work such as offer letters and interview travel request processing. I was flown to the offshore location to help implement even though I was in a new position. In that position, I had anywhere from 9 to 18 direct reports and developed relationships with HR Client Managers across the US to help them with their staffing needs.
