• Administer the performance review process, including scheduling, documentation, and manager support
• Provide coaching and guidance to managers handling disciplinary action situations, ensuring consistency and compliance
• Support day-to-day HR operations and act as a trusted resource for employees at all levels

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience as an HR Generalist, HR Coordinator, or similar role
• Experience in a small business, startup, or entrepreneurial/growth -stage environment strongly preferred
• Track record of successfully recruiting, screening, interviewing, and onboarding candidates on a consistent basis
• Working knowledge of workers' compensation processes and benefits administration
• Experience drafting job descriptions and building training/development content
• Comfortable coaching managers through performance and disciplinary conversations
• Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple priorities independently
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
• Having and HR degree or PHR/SHRM-CP certifications is a plus

What We Offer

• Competitive salary, based on experience
• Health insurance, SIMPLE IRA w/ match, PTO, etc.
• Opportunity to shape HR practices at a growing, locally owned company
• Direct access to leadership and a real seat at the table as the business scales

Join us to be part of an energetic team dedicated to fostering an inclusive workplace where every employee can thrive! We value proactive individuals who are passionate about shaping positive organizational cultures through strategic human resources practices.
