interpretation with people-focused support.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced manufacturing

production floor activities.

• Translate written materials including training documents, financial documents, engineering

living needs.

• Help coordinate employee activities and cultural events that support a positive and inclusive

company culture.

• Assist Human Resources with special projects and employee support initiatives.

Qualifications:
