Director or broker as needed.
โ€ข Assist with workers' compensation, leave of absence, and unemployment claim documentation and
tracking.
โ€ข Support vendor relationships with benefits brokers and insurance carriers.

Talent Acquisition Support:
โ€ข Assist with drafting job descriptions, posting open roles, screening applicants, and coordinating
interview scheduling.

โ€ข Support a positive candidate experience from first contact through offer.
โ€ข Help maintain recruiting documentation and ensure consistent, equitable hiring practices.

โ€ข Execute pre-employment tasks including background checks, I-9 verification, and new hire paperwork.
โ€ข Coordinate onboarding logistics and help new employees get set up with systems, tools, and
information.

โ€ข Support offboarding processes including documentation, system access removal, and final pay
coordination.

Employee Experience & Engagement:
โ€ข Help coordinate employee engagement initiatives, recognition programs, and milestone celebrations.
โ€ข Serve as an approachable, trusted resource for employees with questions about HR policies, benefits,
or processes.

โ€ข Maintain the shared HR folder on the network drive and ensure employees have access to current
policies and resources.

HR Operations & Compliance:
โ€ข Maintain accurate digital personnel files and ensure documentation standards are met.
โ€ข Support compliance with federal, state, and local employment laws through accurate record-keeping
and timely filings.

โ€ข Assist the Director with policy updates, handbook maintenance, and HR program rollouts.
โ€ข Contribute to a culture rooted in respect, trust, teamwork, accountability, and purpose.

โ€ข Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field.
โ€ข 2-3 years of HR experience, with exposure to HRIS, benefits, and/or recruiting.
