Human Resources Generalist -Employee Relations

Are you someone who finds fulfillment in helping others navigate workplace challenges with empathy, clarity, and fairness? Do you enjoy solving problems, analyzing patterns, and creating processes that make work better for everyone? If you're looking for a role where your contributions truly matter—and where you’ll be part of a mission-driven team making a difference in the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities—this might be the opportunity for you.

What You’ll Do:

As our HR Generalist II, you’ll spend most of your time in employee relations—coaching managers, guiding employees, resolving conflicts, and conducting investigations.

You’ll also support broader HR functions like benefits, compliance, and engagement initiatives.

Who You Are:

• A solution-oriented listener who can adapt your approach to meet people where they are.
• Analytical and organized, with a knack for spotting trends and improving processes.
• Personable and professional, able to build trust across all levels of the organization.
• Motivated by impact over income—you care more about making a difference than chasing a high salary.
• Comfortable working independently, but collaborative when it counts.

What You Bring:

• Bachelor’s degree in HR, Business Administration, or related field.
• 2+ years of hands-on experience in employee relations and HR program administration.
• Strong knowledge of employment law and experience conducting investigations.
• Intermediate to advanced skills in MS Office and HRIS systems (Dayforce experience a plus).
• Spanish fluency is a big plus!

Why Join Us:

• At The Arc of San Diego, we’re more than just a workplace—we’re a community. We value compassion, integrity, and inclusion. You’ll be part of a team that supports each other and celebrates the wins, big and small. While the compensation may not be industry-leading, the sense of purpose and belonging is unmatched.

Pay:
