Join Evergen and Make an Impact

Evergen is a global leader in regenerative medicine and the only CDMO offering a differentiated portfolio of allograft and xenograft biomaterials at scale. Following the acquisitions of Cook Biotech and Collagen Solutions, we’re growing rapidly and looking for an experienced HR Business Partner who wants to be a trusted advisor to leaders and a key driver of organizational success.

If you thrive in a fast-paced manufacturing environment, enjoy solving complex people challenges, and want a highly visible role partnering directly with leaders, this opportunity is for you.

• Leading performance management conversations
• Driving engagement, retention, and culture initiatives
• Supporting organizational change and growth
• Recruiting top talent across functions
• Partnering with leaders on workforce planning and talent strategies
• Leading investigations and ensuring employment law compliance
• Delivering leadership training and development initiatives

This role is approximately 40% focused on manager coaching, employee relations, performance management, and leadership support.

Why This Role Is Different

You'll support:

• IT & Finance functions (~50 employees)
• Advisory support for our New Zealand site

You'll be a key member of the HR team with the opportunity to influence leaders, improve processes, and directly impact employee experience across the organization.

What We're Looking For

Required:

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
• 5+ years of progressive HR experience
• Experience supporting manufacturing, operations, or other business functions
• Strong employee relations and manager coaching expertise
• Recruiting and talent acquisition experience
• Knowledge of employment law and HR compliance
• Ability to work independently and influence without direct authority

Preferred:

• Up to 6% 401(k) company match
• Competitive medical, dental, and vision benefits
• Paid parental leave
• Generous PTO and paid holidays
• Short- and long-term disability coverage
• Annual bonus opportunity up to $8,000
