Woodlands Senior Living LLC
Augusta, ME Full Time
POSTED ON 4/22/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/22/2026
Description:

Our residents count on our employees, and our employees count on HR — we’re looking for someone who takes that responsibility to heart. If you thrive in a role where every day is full, purposeful, and people-centered, this might be your next great fit.

We’re a small, high-trust HR team supporting 500 employees who care for 700 residents across 10 senior living communities throughout the State of Maine. Our mission is simple and powerful: to make each day the best day possible for the residents we service, while bringing peace of mind to the people who love them. This role plays a direct part in supporting the people who bring that mission to life.

We’re looking for an HR Generalist who brings energy, ownership, and genuine care to their work — someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, notices the details others miss, and takes full responsibility for the work they lead while still being ready to support the team when needed.

What You’ll Own

  • Candidate sourcing, outreach, and communication — reviewing applications, connecting with candidates, gathering needed information, and ensuring they feel supported throughout the hiring process
  • Application flow management — sending completed applications to hiring leaders through the ATS and keeping the process moving
  • Hiring process support — partnering with leaders during interview selection, scheduling, and communication
  • Wage offer coordination — reviewing wage bands, developing pay rate recommendations, and responding to wage offer requests
  • Offer extension & pre-boarding — extending offers, sending required documents, and following up to ensure timely completion
  • Onboarding coordination — preparing new hire files, tracking completion of onboarding tasks, and ensuring a smooth transition into orientation
  • Bi-weekly orientation facilitation — co-leading new hire orientation to create a welcoming, mission-aligned experience
  • Employee relations & HR operations — supporting employees and leaders while maintaining accurate records, and assisting with day-to-day HR needs
  • Leave administration — managing leave requests with accuracy, compliance, and compassionate communication
  • You’ll partner closely with another HR Generalist who leads reporting and analytics — together, you’ll keep our HR engine running strong.

Who You Are

  • Energized by a full, meaningful workload
  • Detail-driven and proud of producing accurate, high-quality work
  • A natural relationship-builder who earns trust quickly
  • Autonomous and accountable — you take full ownership of your work and follow it through with care
  • Clear, warm, and professional in your communication
  • Motivated by mission-driven work that directly supports resident care

What You’ll Love Here

  • A small, supportive HR team that collaborates and celebrates wins
  • A role with variety — no two days look the same
  • Opportunities to grow your HR skills across multiple areas
  • Work that directly impacts the employee and resident experience

Benefits Built to Support You:

  • Health, dental, vision and supplemental benefits to support your health.
  • Vacation and holiday pay because you deserve time to relax and recharge.
  • Tuition assistance because we believe in the investment of your growth and success.
  • 401(k) savings and investment plan to prepare for your future.
Requirements:
  • Bachelor’s degree in human resources, business administration or related field and/or relevant experience preferred
  • PHR, SPHR, SHRM-SCP or SHRM-CP certification preferred
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills with working knowledge of HR policies, state and federal laws and regulations
  • Proficient with Microsoft Office products preferred
  • A current, valid license to operate a vehicle in the state of Maine and a driving record that is satisfactory to the company
  • Must complete a criminal history record check to the satisfaction of the company
