Are you the person others turn to when they need answers, support, or help navigating a process? Do you enjoy creating order, solving problems, and helping people succeed?

We're looking for a Senior HR Coordinator who thrives on being a trusted resource for employees and leaders. This role is at the center of our HR team and plays a key part in supporting employees throughout their journey with Lanter—from onboarding and benefits administration to leave management, compliance, HR systems, and day-to-day employee support.

Success in this role requires strong attention to detail, sound judgment, and a passion for helping others. You'll thrive here if you enjoy being the person people turn to for answers, can manage multiple priorities, and take pride in providing exceptional employee support.

• Supporting employee lifecycle activities, including onboarding, new hire orientation, employment documentation, and Form I-9 compliance


• Administering benefits processes, including enrollments, qualifying life events, status changes, terminations, and open enrollment support


• Coordinating leave administration, including FMLA, ADA accommodations, personal leaves of absence, workers' compensation coordination, and applicable state leave requirements


• Assisting with workers' compensation claims and partnering with employees, supervisors, carriers, and vendors throughout the process


• Maintaining employee records, HR documentation, and HRIS data while supporting audits, reporting, and compliance efforts


• Providing payroll backup support and assisting with employee data validation and payroll-related documentation


• Managing HR-related invoices and supporting timely processing and approvals


• Monitoring HR inboxes and responding to employee inquiries in a timely and professional manner


• Supporting LMS administration, training compliance, and HR-related reporting


• Maintaining HR policies, procedures, forms, handbook materials, and compliance documentation


• Identifying opportunities to improve processes, increase efficiency, and enhance the employee experience


• Partnering with leaders and cross-functional teams on HR initiatives, employee engagement activities, and special projects


• Staying current on HR best practices, employment law updates, and industry trends

Why You'll Love This Role

• You'll play a hands-on role across nearly every area of HR, including benefits, leave administration, compliance, employee support, payroll backup, HR systems, and onboarding.


• You'll be a trusted resource for employees and leaders across the organization.


• You'll have opportunities to improve processes and help shape how HR supports the business.


• You'll collaborate with team members across multiple locations and departments.


• You'll be part of a team that values service, accountability, continuous improvement, and doing things the right way.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business, Organizational Development, or a related field preferred; equivalent experience may be considered


• 3 years of HR or HR operations experience preferred


• Working knowledge of HR administration, employee records, benefits, leave administration, onboarding, I-9 compliance, workers' compensation coordination, HR systems, payroll support, and employment compliance requirements


• Ability to interpret and apply policies, procedures, and regulatory requirements with consistency and sound judgment


• Strong communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to build positive relationships at all levels of the organization


• Ability to maintain confidentiality and handle sensitive information with discretion


• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines
