IN DEMAND Recruitment & Consulting Inc. is seeking a HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGER for a client in Proctor, WV.

An international specialty manufacturing organization is building a next-generation chemical and food ingredient production facility in West Virginia.

Are you an HR professional who loves both big-picture strategy and rolling up your sleeves? This is a high-impact role where you’ll own the full HR function for a fast-paced chemical manufacturing plant. You’ll be a trusted partner to leadership and a go-to resource for employees—shaping culture, ensuring compliance, and keeping day-to-day operations running smoothly.

If you thrive in an environment where no two days are the same and your work directly impacts people and performance, this role is for you.
