Human Resources Generalist

Westchester County, NY | Full-Time | On-Site

Ready for an HR role where you can actually make an impact?

A well-established, mission-driven nonprofit organization in Westchester County is looking for an energetic, resourceful Human Resources Generalist to join its growing HR team.

This is not a sit-behind-the-scenes HR role. You’ll be a trusted resource for employees and managers, helping to recruit great people, solve problems, strengthen the employee experience, and keep a busy HR operation moving.

If you’re organized, approachable, comfortable juggling competing priorities, and genuinely enjoy working with people, we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Do

As an HR Generalist, you’ll have exposure to the full employee lifecycle, including:

• Supporting recruitment, interviewing, hiring, and onboarding
• Serving as a day-to-day HR resource for employees and managers
• Assisting with employee relations matters and workplace concerns
• Supporting performance management, coaching, and corrective action processes
• Coordinating leaves, benefits, and other employee programs
• Maintaining accurate employee records and HRIS data
• Helping ensure compliance with employment laws, policies, and organizational requirements
• Supporting HR initiatives, employee engagement, training, and special projects
• Partnering with the HR team to continuously improve processes and the employee experience

Who We’re Looking For

You’ll thrive here if you are:

• A strong communicator who builds relationships easily
• Highly organized and able to manage multiple priorities
• Comfortable handling sensitive information with professionalism and discretion
• Resourceful, solutions-oriented, and willing to jump in where needed
• Confident working in a fast-paced, people-centered environment
• Interested in growing your HR knowledge and taking on increasing responsibility

A bachelor’s degree and prior Human Resources experience are preferred. Experience in a nonprofit, healthcare, human services, or similarly regulated environment is a plus.

Why Join Us?

You’ll join a collaborative HR team at an organization where the work has real purpose and where HR plays an important role in supporting both employees and the people they serve.

We offer a competitive benefits package that includes generous employer contributions toward medical coverage, paid time off, sick time, a 403(b) retirement plan, Employee Assistance Program, tuition reimbursement, professional development opportunities, financial wellness resources, and opportunities for growth and advancement.

If you’re looking for a role where you can learn, contribute, build relationships, and make HR better every day, we want to hear from you.

Apply today and tell us what you’d bring to the team.

We are an equal opportunity employer committed to creating an inclusive workplace.
