You'll also partner with our Sr. Director of HR on organizational development and compensation reviews, building your generalist foundation while gaining exposure to the strategic side of HR. It's an exciting opportunity to contribute to a talented HR team in a creative, growth-mindset environment — for a collaborative team player who thrives in an agile setting.

  • Maintain HR data integrity in ADP and support compliance, compensation, and headcount reporting.
  • Support recruiting and onboarding, including job description review and new hire coordination.
  • Draft HR correspondence such as promotion letters and policy communications.
  • Participate in HR team meetings, trainings, and projects as needed.
What you bring:
  • 4–7 years of HR Generalist experience, ideally including employee relations, investigations, or corrective action.
  • Working knowledge of employment law fundamentals (FLSA, FMLA, ADA, EEO, state leave requirements).
  • Exposure to compensation processes, job evaluation, or organizational design.
  • A collaborative, team-first mindset — you thrive in an agile, fast-moving environment.
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Proficiency in MS Office 365 (especially Excel); ADP or similar HRIS experience helpful.
  • Adaptable and curious about AI tools, with a willingness to learn and apply them to streamline HR processes and improve efficiency.
  • Bachelor's degree in HR, Business, or a related field preferred, or equivalent experience.
