Regional Power+ Program Coordinator

Hitachi Energy is seeking a Regional Power+ Program Coordinator for the North America region, including the United States, Canada, and Mexico. In this role, you will report to a Global Power+ Program Manager and contribute to the Global Power+ Graduate Program, our flagship early career development program, by being responsible for regional program coordination of Power+ new graduates hired in countries of your scope in North America. As a program coordinator for Power+ new graduates you'll be responsible for ongoing oversight on managing participant data in the HR information system (Workday) and coaching support to participants and their rotation managers. You will be responsible for delivering a recruitment strategy, collaborating with local Talent Acquisition and Employer Branding teams, engaging with the business to hire candidates.
