Department Overview

The HR Employee Relations team supports the organization by serving as the initial point of advice, problem resolution (including, e.g., workplace concerns and/or investigations), and facilitation in the areas of employee relations, performance management, and employee discipline; provides interpretation of related policies, procedures and practices. The team identifies, responds, and analyzes specific employee relations concerns and makes recommendations to management.

Position Summary

As a Senior HR Consultant, you will play a critical role within our HR team. You will be part of a team of skilled professionals responsible for advising leadership, monitoring and addressing performance management, employee discipline, and employee relations (including, e.g., employee concerns and/or workplace investigations). Additionally, you will provide interpretation of policies and employment law, and will also serve as an employee advocate. 

This role works closely with other HR and Company stakeholders in order to address, support and/or provide guidance regarding addressing misconduct. This can include conducting workplace investigations and/or supporting leaders with conducting workplace investigations. You will act as a liaison between departments/divisions that impact the employee employment experience including Recruiting, Worker’s Compensation, Leave of Absences, Leadership Development, Diversity and Inclusion, Ethics and Compliance, Labor Relations, Payroll, and Compensation. 

The strongest candidates will possess a broad foundation in HR with a specialty in Employee Relations, including workplace investigations.

The assigned headquarter location will be within the PG&E service territory and agreed upon by the successful candidate and hiring leader.

PG&E is providing the salary range that the company in good faith believes it might pay for this position at the time of the job posting. This compensation range is specific to the locality of the job. The actual salary paid to an individual will be based on multiple factors, including, but not limited to, specific skills, education, licenses or certifications, experience, market value, geographic location, and internal equity.  Although we estimate the successful candidate hired into this role will be placed between the entry point and the middle of the range, the decision will be made on a case-by-case basis related to these factors.​  This job is also eligible to participate in PG&E’s discretionary incentive compensation programs.
