The Kroger Co. SVP and Chief People Officer Tim Massa has been inducted as a fellow into the National Academy of Human Resources (NAHR).

NAHR fellows are recognized for their sustained achievements and contributions to their organizations, the HR profession and society at large.

“We are extremely fortunate to have Tim Massa leading our associates, ensuring our teams enjoy a culture of opportunity, growth and careers with purpose,” said Kroger CEO Rodney McMullen.

“Tim leads by example, bringing Kroger values to life everyday guided by the principle that our associates are the heart of our company, enabling us to serve customers and communities. It takes a remarkable HR professional to achieve the status of NAHR Fellow, and Tim is more than deserving of this distinction.”

Massa has held several positions since joining Kroger in 2010. In his current role, Massa leads all areas of HR and labor relations. His areas of responsibilities include human resources and labor relations, including total rewards, labor relations, diversity, business unit human resources, people operations, training and development. He also oversees hiring, retention and engagement, corporate affairs, associate communications, shared services and aviation.

He serves on the board of directors for the Society of Human Resources Management (SHRM) and the North American Human Resources Policy Association (HRPA). Massa is also a member of the Center for Executive Succession Advisory Board at the University of South Carolina’s Darla Moore School of Business.
