About A&I Avenues 

A&I Avenues is a mission-driven organization committed to helping individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, physical disabilities and mental health conditions live meaningful, self-directed lives. We work with families, caregivers, and community partners to deliver services rooted in dignity, respect, and inclusion. 

Our employees are the core of this work. The HR team is essential in fostering a workplace where staff feel supported, valued, and empowered to do their best. 

The Opportunity 

We are seeking an HR Generalist who enjoys working across all aspects of Human Resources- from recruiting and onboarding to employee relations and compliance. 

This is an excellent opportunity for an HR professional seeking broad exposure to the full HR function within a mission-driven organization. You will partner closely with leadership and staff across the organization to help strengthen our culture, support managers, and ensure our people practices are consistent, compliant, and employee centered. 

This role operates as a department of one, responsible for managing the day-to-day Human Resources function across the organization. The HR Generalist will work independently while partnering closely with the CEO and Leadership Team.

This position is ideal for someone who is comfortable working autonomously, takes initiative, and enjoys owning the full scope of HR while leveraging external expertise when needed.
