Your HR Business Partners
The HR Business Partners are committed to creating a healthy organizational climate in which employees are valued stakeholders with the power to affect outcomes. We are your partners.
The HR Business Partners are the one stop shop for employees. GVSU employees are assigned, based on their department/area, to a specific HR Business Partner. They can be contacted for any HR needs, from benefits to employment. Business Partners engage with the campus community to support hiring efforts, employee and departmental misconduct, and more. Please contact your HR Business Partner based on the sections below.
In addition to our office in Allendale, we are now available (by appointment) on Pew Campus in DEV 315.1C, Monday and Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
While your HR Strategic Business Partner is your primary point of contact, HR Administration continues to manage many of your transactional and processing needs.
