Tyshell Jones is Bladen County’s new Human Resources Director. She begins her duties on Monday, August 17. Jones succeeds Shonteia Keaton who accepted a position at Fayetteville State University. As Human Resources Director, Jones is responsible for overseeing and providing services to full-time and part-time employees, including benefits, employee communications, pay and classification management, and much more.
Jones earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration and Management from Shaw University and a dual Master’s Degree in Human Resource Development and Leadership Management from Webster University. She began her career as a legal assistant working with a law firm in Fayetteville and later in Wilmington.
