Job Description
We’re looking for a person-centered, collaborative direct service provider to join the Ground Up team as a full-time resource for our training program. This is not your traditional HR position; this is a rather unconventional role for an unconventional company. You will be responsible for some traditional HR duties such as hiring and onboarding, as well as providing our employees (womxn overcoming adversity) with support and resources to help them overcome whatever obstacles they are facing. This is a unique role for a social service worker to apply their skills at a small and fast-growing social enterprise. At Ground Up, our team is our #1 priority, so this is a crucial role.
About Us:
Ground Up PDX is a small-batch nut butter company that employs womxn overcoming adversity to provide them with job skills and training to get back on their feet. Through our 6-9 month training program, womxn gain the confidence and skills to move on to their next phase of life. We produce peanut-free, honey-sweetened nut butters in flavors such as Cinnamon Snickerdoodle. Our products are sold in New Seasons, Whole Foods, Fred Meyer, and other PNW retailers.
As our Employee Support Manager, you will be a leader who is a key part in cultivating team culture at Ground Up and builds trust with the womxn on our team. You will be working closely with Ground Up’s co-founders, Operations Manager and Production Manager to ensure all of Ground Up’s personnel are equipped to do their job to the best of their ability. This is a full-time, salaried (exempt) role based in Portland, Oregon.
