Job description

Description
Senior HRIS and Benefits Specialist
Fred Finch Youth & Family Services | Oakland, CA or San Diego, CA (Hybrid) | Full-Time, Exempt
Make Your HR Expertise Matter
For over a century, Fred Finch Youth & Family Services has been changing the trajectory of young lives - providing behavioral health, education, and family support services to some of California's most vulnerable youth and families. None of that work happens without the people behind the people: an HR team that takes care of the employees who take care of our community.
We're looking for a Senior HRIS & Benefits Specialist who wants their technical skills to serve something bigger than a system upgrade. You'll be the architect behind the benefits, data, and workflows that let our direct-care staff focus on what they do best - showing up for kids and families every day.
This isn't just a system administration role. It's a chance to build something from the ground up: our UKG implementation still has meaningful configuration and workflow work left from launch, and you'll be the one who takes it from functional to fully optimized - with real autonomy and real visibility to leadership.
What You'll Do
  • Serve as primary system administrator for UKG - configurations, security roles, user access, upgrades
  • Audit the current UKG implementation and build a prioritized optimization roadmap with the VP of HR
  • Design and deploy automated workflows that reduce manual effort across HR
  • Administer all employee benefit plans (health, dental, vision, life) and lead annual Open Enrollment
  • Serve as primary liaison to carriers, the 401(k) provider, and third-party administrators.
  • Manage EDI feeds between UKG and benefit carriers, ensuring accurate, timely, HIPAA-compliant data exchange
  • Ensure compliance with ERISA, COBRA, FMLA, ADA, Section 125, and ACA, including required filings
  • Build HR reports, dashboards, and analytics; support EEO-1, ACA, and other regulatory reporting
  • Train HR staff and end users on HRIS functionality and best practices

What You Bring
  • Minimum 5 years of progressive HRIS experience, including hands-on system administration, configuration, and workflow development
  • Demonstrated experience managing EDI integrations between an HRIS and benefit carriers or TPAs
  • Experience conducting HRIS audits and implementing system improvements
  • Direct experience with UKG Pro or UKG Ready
  • Bachelor's degree in HR, Information Systems, Business Administration, or related field (equivalent experience considered)
  • Strong Excel and data management skills
  • Experience implementing or optimizing an HRIS system

Preferred
  • Direct experience UKG Ready
  • UKG Pro/Ready certification
  • SHRM-CP/SCP, PHR/SPHR
  • Experience in a nonprofit, healthcare, or human services setting

Location Requirement
Must reside in Alameda County, San Diego County, or an adjacent California county.
If you're an HR technology professional who wants your work to mean something beyond the system itself, we'd love to hear from you!
Compensation: $93,330 - $119,115.36 annually
Schedule: Monday-Friday, 8:00 am-5:00 pm, hybrid at management's discretion. No fully remote positions at FF.
Join our team as: Senior HRIS and Benefits Specialist
