What are the responsibilities and job description for the Human Resources Generalist position at Platinum Recruiting Group?
We are a leading Midwest-based recruiting firm partnering with our client, a dynamic and growing organization in Carmel, Indiana, to find a dedicated and high-energy Human Resources Generalist to join their team.
Why This Role?
If you are an HR professional looking for a true generalist experience, this is the perfect career move. Unlike roles where you are siloed into one function, this position offers you a seat at the table across the entire HR lifecycle. This role is designed for a self-starter who wants to be the "go-to" person for employees while working out of a brand-new, state-of-the-art office building in the heart of Carmel.
The Work Environment & Culture
Our client operates with an Operations-led HR model. This means HR is viewed as a vital support function that enables the business to thrive. Rather than focusing on rigid policy-making, you will be part of a team that prioritizes "boots on the ground" support, agility, and employee advocacy.
- Team Structure: You will work closely with the HR leadership (supporting the HR Director) to streamline processes and maintain a positive workplace culture.
- Technology: You will utilize UKG for HRIS and payroll functions, alongside the Microsoft Office Suite to manage documentation and communications.
- Vibe: The office is fast-paced and collaborative. It is a fully in-office environment, fostering real-time problem-solving and strong interpersonal connections.
Key Responsibilities
- Investigations Lead: Serve as the primary point of contact for workplace investigations, ensuring they are handled with discretion, objectivity, and timely resolution.
- Employee Advocacy: Act as a helpful resource for employees, connecting them with the tools and information they need to succeed.
- Compliance & Leaves: Manage FMLA and leave of absence requests while ensuring the company stays up-to-date with city, state, and federal labor laws.
- Operational Support: Maintain meticulous records and provide administrative support that keeps the HR function running smoothly.
What You’ll Bring (Qualifications)
- Experience: 1–3 years of progressive HR experience. This is an ideal role for someone "junior" looking to level up.
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources or a related field; SHRM-CP or PHR is a plus.
- Skillset: A foundational understanding of HR compliance and a strong desire to master the investigations process.
- Personality: You are outgoing, approachable, and energetic. You thrive in a "support-first" environment and enjoy interacting with people at all levels of an organization.
