Amanda Sarjeant
@amandasarjeant
Business-aligned HR leader and HRBP driving workforce strategy, labor relations, and Workday transformations in regulated environments.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven HR leader who partners with leadership across regulated manufacturing, municipal, and union environments. I focus on aligning human capital strategy with corporate goals in both on-site and remote/multi-state settings, especially when change, compliance, and stakeholder alignment are high-stakes.
In my recent Acting HRBP role at Edgewell Personal Care, I architected a full-cycle recruitment strategy that filled 60 critical roles and cut average time-to-fill by 34%. I also helped modernize onboarding by partnering with distributed teams to launch an SSO digital onboarding portal, improving completion rates by 28%, and I supported site governance through three SOX audits with zero deficiencies.
Previously, as a City of Port Orange HR Specialist, I served as Key Management Representative through multi-year collective bargaining, supporting seven ratified labor contracts across multiple bargaining units. I led a cross-departmental Workday HRIS rollout (including configuration mapping, UAT, change communications, and training for 100+ staff globally), and I strengthened retention by championing a 401(k) vesting policy change that reduced vesting from 10 to 6 years.
