AWC is a leading provider of automation, controls, and valve solutions across the Gulf Coast and beyond. As a 100% employee-owned company (ESOP), our success is driven by people who take ownership, solve problems, build strong relationships, and continuously improve the way we serve our customers. Our culture is built on Safety, Family, Mutual Respect, Quality, Service, Partnerships, and Rewarding Results. We believe strong organizations are built through trust, accountability, and leaders who create environments where employees can learn, contribute, grow, and perform at a high level together.

As our organization continues to grow, we are seeking an experienced Senior HR Business Partner who can influence leaders, strengthen organizational effectiveness, and foster our culture where high performance and mutual respect coexist.

The Senior HR Business Partner will serve as a trusted advisor to leaders across the organization, helping them navigate employee relations, performance management, workforce planning, and organizational structure. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in the real-world complexity of leadership - someone who builds trust quickly, helps employee co-owners realize their potential, coaches through difficult situations, and partners with leaders to build effective teams through clarity, accountability, and practical problem-solving. The successful candidate will be viewed not simply as “HR support,” but as a credible business partner who helps leaders solve problems, strengthen teams, improve organizational effectiveness, and build long-term success across the business.
