Human Resources Manager — Voyager Industries | Brandon, MN
$65,000 – $90,000/year | Full-Time | Onsite
Who We Are
At Voyager Industries, we build adventure, Bear Track Trailers, Yetti Fish Houses, Titan Deck, Voyager Dock, Black Line Conversions, and Voyager Aluminum. Our four Minnesota campuses in Brandon, Evansville, Staples, and Pine River work together to design, engineer, and manufacture products built for the outdoors.
We’re a small-town company with a big mission: empower our employees, show up for our customers, and give back to our community. If you love Minnesota’s four seasons as much as we do, and you love showing up for people even more, keep reading.
The Role
We’re looking for a Human Resources Manager who sees HR as a partnership, not a policy desk.
This is a one-person HR department, which means you’ll have real ownership over the people side of the business, from hiring and onboarding to employee relations, benefits, PFML, FMLA administration, compliance, and everything in between. You’ll work closely with our leadership team and travel weekly to our other campus locations.
If you’re someone who genuinely cares about the people on the floor, not just the paperwork, this is the role for you.
Salary: $65,000 – $90,000 depending on experience
Location: Brandon, MN (onsite, with weekly travel to Evansville, Staples, and Pine River — mileage reimbursed)
Classification: Full-time, exempt/salaried
