Human Resource Generalist

Preg O’Donnell & Gillett is a litigation firm with offices across the Pacific Northwest. We’re known not only for the quality of our legal work, but for the way we work together—collaboratively, respectfully, and with a shared commitment to succeeding together. We are looking for a high‑energy, intellectually curious HR professional who wants to play a meaningful role in shaping the employee experience at a law firm. This is not a traditional HR role—this is a hands‑on, highly visible position for someone who likes variety, ownership, and being in the middle of how a firm runs. This role touches multiple areas of the firm and blends HR, recruiting, operations, and culture-building. Human Resources Serve as a go‑to resource for employees on HR‑related questions and support. Help develop and implement HR policies, processes, and best practices. Support employee relations, feedback conversations, and performance processes. Own and manage the annual staff review process in collaboration with firm leadership, from planning and communication through completion and follow‑up. Maintain employee records and ensure compliance with applicable laws and firm policies. Assist with benefits administration and HR reporting. Recruiting & Onboarding Manage the full recruiting lifecycle, including job postings, screening, interview coordination, and offers. Create a thoughtful, organized, and engaging onboarding experience for new hires. Partner with leadership on hiring strategy. Culture & Events Plan and coordinate firm events, celebrations, and team gatherings. Support initiatives that strengthen engagement and connection across offices. Bring creativity and energy to how we celebrate wins and milestones. Marketing & Website Support Assist with recruiting‑related marketing, including job postings, employer branding, and LinkedIn presence. Help keep the firm website current, particularly attorney profiles, firm news updates, and careers content. Support internal and external communications tied to hiring and firm initiatives. Facilities & Office Coordination Help ensure our offices are functional, organized, and welcoming. Coordinate with vendors and internal teams on space, supplies, and general office needs. What We’re Looking For 2–4 years of experience in HR, recruiting, or a related role; professional services or law firm experience is a plus. Natural curiosity, a proactive approach, and comfort figuring things out. Strong organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities. Excellent communication skills and the ability to build relationships across all levels. A high level of discretion and professionalism when handling sensitive information. A “roll up your sleeves” mindset—you’re just as comfortable planning an event as you are updating a policy. Why Join Us Competitive compensation of $70,000–$90,000 and benefits. Opportunity to grow into a leadership‑oriented HR role. Direct access to firm leadership and decision‑making. A collaborative, team‑first environment that values initiative and follow‑through. The chance to meaningfully shape the employee experience at a respected regional firm. #J-18808-Ljbffr
