Description

The Amenity Collective, recognized as a 2026 Top Workplace, is North America’s leading provider of single-source solutions across the aquatics, fitness, and recreation industries.

We are currently looking for a People Operations Generalist to join our growing team! The People Operations Generalist is a versatile and highly engaged member of The Amenity Collective's People team, providing day-to-day People Operations support across the organization. This role has direct responsibility for recruiting and onboarding assigned corporate positions while also supporting centralized People administration, team member needs, and special projects.

A key aspect of this position is flexibility. Priorities will shift based on business needs, seasonal demands, and team workload, and this individual must be comfortable jumping in wherever additional support is needed. Responsibilities may range from recruiting and onboarding to Workday administration, invoice reconciliation, reporting, compliance support, and special projects.

In this role, you will play an important role in bringing TAC's culture to life within our corporate office. We are looking for someone who is naturally enthusiastic, approachable, and energized by people—someone who builds relationships, creates positive energy, coordinates team events and recognition, and looks for creative ways to strengthen connections within the office and our local community.

This is a hands-on, primarily desk-based role that balances detailed administrative work with meaningful interaction across the organization.
