Kruse selected for Chief Human Resources Officer position at PTC

Pine Technical College announces Amy Kruse will assume the post of Chief Human Resources Officer/Director of Human Resources.

 

“We are very pleased to have Amy; she will drive our human resource activities going forward as we continue to grow and expand,” says PTC President Robert Musgrove, Ph.D. “Her experience and background in human resources, combined with her knowledge of our organization and the broader higher education landscape in Minnesota will support our commitment in serving all our varied constituents. We know Amy will be an excellent hallmark for service and responsibility,” Musgrove adds.

 

Kruse will oversee recruitment and hiring, employee onboarding, performance management, affirmative action, benefits management, and shared services initiatives. Kruse transitions into the new role from her current position at PTC as Human Resources Generalist, a position she has held since 2010. Previously, Kruse worked for nearly six years in Human Resources at Advantage Management Corporation in Eagan, Minn. Kruse holds a B.A. in communications from the Univ. of Minnesota and is active in the Society for Human Resource Management. Throughout these roles, Kruse has lived and worked throughout the state, covering a broad spectrum of business- and human resource-related activity at both strategic and operational levels.

 

“I am excited and proud to have been selected for this leadership position,” Kruse says. Having been at PTC for a few years, I am impressed with the way we operate, and I’m delighted to help further recruit and advance the workforce at PTC. After all, it’s the people within PTC who are at the very core of our college’s success, and everyone employed at the college — all our faculty and staff — touches the lives of students who will be the next leaders of our generation,” Kruse adds.
