We’re looking for an HR Generalist to join our team and support the full employee lifecycle. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys being hands‑on across HR operations, thrives in a fast‑paced environment, and takes pride in delivering a strong employee experience.
This is not a purely administrative role — you’ll partner closely with payroll, benefits, and HR leadership to keep HR operations running smoothly while serving as a trusted point of contact for employees.
What You’ll Do
- Support end‑to‑end HR operations, including onboarding, offboarding, employee changes, and HRIS data management
- Coordinate and support U.S. payroll processing by ensuring employee updates are accurate and submitted on time
- Administer employee benefits, support open enrollment, and serve as a liaison for benefits questions
- Maintain accurate electronic and physical employee records in compliance with employment laws and company policies
- Serve as a front‑line HR contact, responding to employee questions with professionalism, confidentiality, and a strong customer‑service mindset
- Support employee relations, performance management processes, and HR documentation
- Partner with HR leadership, Payroll, Benefits, Talent Acquisition, and HRIS teams on day‑to‑day operations and projects
- Assist with HR reporting, audits, and ad hoc analytics requests
- Support engagement and culture initiatives, internal communications, and employee experience efforts
- Contribute to process improvements and documentation to help scale HR operations
What We’re Looking For
- 2–5 years of experience in an HR Generalist, People Operations, HR Coordinator, or similar role
- Hands‑on experience supporting benefits administration and payroll coordination
- Strong HRIS experience
- Working knowledge of federal, state, and local employment laws
- Highly organized, detail‑oriented, and comfortable managing multiple priorities
- Strong communication skills and a service‑oriented approach
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office, particularly Excel
Why This Role
- Broad exposure across HR operations, benefits, payroll, and employee relations
- Opportunity to make a real impact on employee experience and HR processes
- Collaborative HR team with cross‑functional partnerships
- Fast‑paced environment with room to grow and take ownership
