The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Cigna is hiring a Employee Relations Manager in Aberdeen, SD.

• Role description

  Cigna pays around $85,000 - $136,000 for an Employee Relations Manager, but what we really offer is room to push Continuous Learning as far as it'll go in Aberdeen. Plainly put, Cigna wants 7 years of Coaching, will pay $85,000 - $136,000, and expects you to own the result.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Bridge Team Leadership and Goal Setting so neither team works in the dark
  • Keep Aberdeen, SD momentum when the manager pipeline runs thin
  • Carry the Professionalism thread across three time zones and two tools
  • Champion a positive, collaborative culture throughout the Aberdeen, SD office
  • Trim Team Leadership processes that have quietly outlived their purpose
  • Spot where Team Leadership breaks before it shows up in a dashboard

  What You'll Bring

  • Proven track record delivering results as an Employee Relations Manager
  • A SD sensibility, or genuine curiosity about this market
  • Familiarity with Work-Life Balance and related tools or frameworks
  • An Aberdeen grounding, or the adaptability to plant roots quickly
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities
  • A team player who lifts up colleagues and shares credit
  • Hands-on general experience that holds up to follow-up questions

  Cigna earns its keep by making general predictable, a scrappy promise it has quietly kept across SD. Ownership runs deep here: you'll own outcomes, not just tasks, from your first week as an Employee Relations Manager.

  Joining us means $85,000 - $136,000, a clear promotion ladder, paid family leave, and mentors invested in your success.
