  • Plan and manage organizational events, including coworker recognition and appreciation initiatives.
  • Coordinate pre-employment processes such as reference checks, background screenings, and drug testing; prepare workspaces and lead onboarding efforts with a focus on continuous improvement.
  • Maintain strict confidentiality of coworker records and HR information.
  • Contribute to team and departmental goals, objectives, and initiatives.
  • Develop, generate, and analyze HR reports to support decision-making.
  • Respond to internal and external inquiries in a professional and timely manner, both in person and via phone.
  • Serve as a strong employee advocate, promoting a positive and inclusive company culture.

The Ideal Candidate Will Have

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and SharePoint; experience with HRIS systems (Dayforce preferred).
  • Excellent verbal, written, and interpersonal communication skills.
  • Working knowledge of human resources principles, practices, and procedures.

Additional qualifications that will help you be successful in this role:

  • Bachelor’s degree in human resource management or a related field preferred.
  • 2–5 years of human resources experience with demonstrated success managing full-cycle recruiting, partnering with hiring managers, and sourcing candidates in a fast-paced environment.

  • Experience with onboarding or early coworker lifecycle support.
  • PHR certification preferred.
  • Bilingual a PLUS
