Jason joined MidPen in 2025 as Senior Director of HR Strategy. He will focus on partnering with teams to develop and implement HR strategies that support overall business goals. Jason will aim to transform traditional HR functions into strategic business partnerships, fostering organizational growth, cultural development, and talent optimization.
Prior to joining MidPen, Jason worked at See’s Candy, where he drove strategic functions for the HR organization and oversaw critical areas such as EEO compliance, labor relations, benefits and compensation, and the HCM launch stabilization. He managed HR operations for a dynamic workforce that fluctuated from 2,500 to 9,500 employees due to seasonal demands across six unions for retail and plant operations.
