Vantaggio HR's client, ERG Aerospace, is looking for a HR Manager.

This role can be based out of our Sparks, NV headquarters or our Oakland, CA facility.

CEO

Are you an HR professional who loves being in the thick of it? ERG Aerospace is looking for a Hands-On HR Manager to lead our daily people operations. Reporting directly to the CEO, you won’t just be sitting in a boardroom - you’ll be on the floor, in the files, and across our Nevada and California facilities ensuring our team is supported and our compliance is airtight.

We are a growing, family-owned manufacturing leader in the aerospace and defense sectors founded in 1967 and a pioneer in the industry, manufacturing materials that literally power the semiconductor, defense, and biomedical sectors.

We need a "doer" who can manage everything from payroll and benefits to employee relations and multi-state compliance with precision and a positive attitude. This position is 5 days a week on-site job, but we are open to the individual having their base location at either one of our facilities in Oakland or Sparks with bi-weekly travel between the two.

• The Pulse of the Company: Manage the full employee lifecycle, including recruitment, onboarding, and offboarding for our technical and manufacturing teams.
• Compliance Lead: Keep us ahead of the curve on Nevada and California employment laws. You’ll be the one ensuring our handbooks, policies, and practices are 100% up to date.
• Benefits & Payroll Support: Act as the primary point of contact for benefits administration, open enrollment, and coordinating with payroll to ensure total accuracy.
• Employee Relations: Be the trusted face of HR. You’ll handle conflict resolution, coaching for supervisors, and maintaining our "supportive entrepreneurial" culture.
• HRIS Master: Take ownership of our HR systems, ensuring data integrity and pulling the reports needed to help us manage "smart goals" and KPIs.

• The "Do-er" Mindset: You aren't afraid to roll up your sleeves. Whether it's filing a report or helping a manager with a tough conversation, you jump in.
• Multi-State Expertise: You have a solid grasp of California and Nevada labor laws (leave laws, wage and hour, etc.).
• Manufacturing Roots: You enjoy the fast-paced, "common sense" environment of a manufacturing plant.
• Experience: 5+ years of HR management experience.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in HR or Business. SHRM-CP or SCP is a huge plus.
• Tech Savvy: You are proficient in Microsoft Office and experienced with HRIS platforms.

• Stability & Growth: Join a company founded in 1967 that is still innovating for NASA, Boeing, and the semiconductor industry.
• Direct Access: Work directly with the CEO and executive team—no layers of middle management to navigate.
• Compensation: $100,000 – $110,000 base salary and 20% target bonus
• The Essentials: 401k with match, Health, Dental, and Vision insurance.
• Travel: Bi-weekly visits of a couple of days each time to the alternative location.
