Job description

We are 100% employee owned. Our commitment to excellence in engineering, manufacturing, integration and on-site installation is unmatched. Since 1965, VFP has earned a worldwide reputation for quality workmanship and superior customer service.

Our shelters protect critical equipment in all 50 states, all seven continents, and over 80 countries internationally. From the Sahara Desert and the Australian Outback to the South Pole, VFP buildings have withstood hurricanes, earthquakes and the full spectrum of environmental extremes.

VFP's manufacturing facilities in Duffield, Virginia allow all construction and equipment integration to be performed under one roof, which provides for timely completion & consistent quality. The Corporate Headquarters Office is located in the heart of Roanoke, Virginia.

About the Role

This is not a typical desk job. As our HR Administrator, you will spend a large part of your day out in our production buildings getting to know our employees, answering their questions, and helping them understand the benefits that make VFP a great place to work, including our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). You will also keep our workforce informed by managing our building screens, emails, and Paycom announcements. Another unique piece to this position is that you will be a welcoming face and take the lead on preparing for customers and business partners who visit our Duffield facility. That includes coordinating schedules, arranging catering, getting meeting spaces ready, and making sure every visit runs smoothly from arrival to departure.

This role is a great fit if you:

• Enjoy being on your feet and out among people more than sitting at a desk
• Are comfortable starting conversations with anyone, from the production floor to the front office
• Can explain things like benefits and retirement plans in plain, simple terms
• Like creating clear, engaging communications and keeping information current
• Are organized enough to balance floor time with administrative work

Responsibilities

The Human Resources Administrator will be responsible for providing day-to-day HR administrative support while serving as a professional point of contact for external customers, vendors, and business partners. This role requires excellent communication, attention to detail, and the ability to deliver a consistent and positive customer service experience.

• Provide timely, professional, and courteous service to external customers and business partners.
• Maintain a professional working relationship with corporate sales and other members of management.
• Coordinate catering and notifications of customer visits/ meetings, ensuring adequate supplies.
• Assist with onboarding, recruitment activities, employment documentation and other day-to-day HR duties.
• Participate in employee engagement activities and follow-ups throughout all facilities.
• Support HR policies, procedures, compliance requirements, and departmental projects.
• Help develop FAQ’s, knowledge resources, communication materials, and self-service solutions for employees.
• Assist in employee communications and postings via live streaming formats.
