Human Resources Coordinator

Full-Time | Anchorage, Alaska
Monday–Friday | 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM
$27.00+/hour DOE

At BrightStar Care of Anchorage, we believe great care starts with great people.

We are looking for a Human Resources Coordinator who wants to build meaningful HR experience, make a real impact, and be part of a team where their work matters. This role is ideal for someone with at least one year of direct HR experience who is ready for more ownership, more variety, and the opportunity to continue building their skills.

This is not a “sit quietly behind a desk” HR role.

This position is highly visible, people-facing, and varied. You will support recruiting, onboarding, payroll, employee relations, compliance, and day-to-day HR operations for a busy healthcare team. You will work closely with leadership, build relationships with employees, and help create a workplace where people feel supported and set up for success.

If you enjoy being the person people come to for answers, love staying organized, can manage multiple priorities, and want to contribute to a team where there is room to learn, improve, and grow with us over time, we would love to meet you.

Recruitment, Onboarding, and Employee Support

• Coordinate recruiting efforts including job postings, candidate communication, interview scheduling, and follow-up


• Support outreach to recruitment sources, schools, vendors, and community partners


• Help create a positive candidate experience from first contact through onboarding


• Complete background checks, new hire paperwork, HRIS set-up, and orientation tasks


• Process employee status changes including hires, transfers, promotions, and terminations


• Serve as a point of contact for routine employee questions regarding payroll, policies, benefits, and employment matters


• Maintain I-9 documentation and employee records in compliance with applicable laws

Payroll and HR Administration

• Assist with payroll processing and review timekeeping, deductions, and wage calculations for accuracy


• Help resolve employee payroll questions and discrepancies


• Maintain confidential employee files and HR records


• Support audits, reporting, compliance efforts, and HR process improvements


• Assist with performance review processes and employee communications


• Partner with leadership on special projects and day-to-day operational support

What We're Looking For

• At least 1 year of direct HR experience required


• Experience in HR, office administration, healthcare, staffing, recruiting, or employee support preferred


• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities at once


• Strong written and verbal communication skills


• Ability to handle sensitive and confidential information with professionalism and discretion


• Comfortable working independently while also being a strong team player


• Proficiency with Microsoft Office and HRIS systems preferred


• Someone who is proactive, detail-oriented, dependable, and genuinely enjoys helping people

Why This Role Is Different

At BrightStar Care of Anchorage, you will have the opportunity to do more than simply support HR. You will be a trusted part of the team and have the ability to make a meaningful contribution.

The right person for this role is motivated, resourceful, eager to learn, and excited by the opportunity to take ownership and continue developing professionally. There is meaningful variety in the work and the chance to build broad experience across multiple areas of HR.

You will be part of a supportive leadership team that values collaboration, initiative, reliability, and continuous improvement.

This is a great fit for someone who:

• Enjoys variety and likes no two days looking exactly the same


• Takes initiative and enjoys figuring things out


• Wants to work for a company where their ideas and contributions matter


• Likes building relationships and supporting employees


• Is motivated, dependable, and excited to continue learning

We know great candidates do not always check every box.
