The Employee Experience Specialist is an entry-level role within the Human Resources (HR) Department, embedded with our craft teams in the field and in the warehouse. The primary function of this role is to be a visible culture champion – building community, driving employee engagement, recognizing great work, and ensuring our craft employees are having the best possible experience, whether they are on the warehouse floor or at a construction site. The Specialist also serves as a trusted liaison between craft employees, Operations and Construction Management, and Human Resources. This role is home-based out of our Des Moines, Iowa warehouse, which provides two key advantages: constant visibility with the warehouse crews, and a central place to store and manage gear inventory for site visits. Because the role supports employees across multiple locations, this position requires significant travel (approximately 50–75%) to our warehouse locations in Brooks, Kentucky and Kosciusko, Mississippi, as well as to active construction sites.
