  • Hands on recruiting or Talent Acquisition experience with the confidence and communication skills to conduct candidate screening interviews
  • Working knowledge of employee relations, onboarding, benefits, HR administration, compliance, and general HR practices
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills with the ability to build relationships with candidates, employees, managers, and senior leadership
  • A proactive, accountable approach with the ability to manage competing priorities and work with urgency in a growing, fast paced organization
  • Experience with Workday or another HRIS is a plus
  • Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field preferred
  • Ability to work onsite in Herndon, Virginia five days per week

What you will get in return

You will join a growing organization where you can gain broad HR exposure while helping shape processes and structure as the HR function develops. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys recruiting but wants to continue building their broader HR Generalist experience with long term growth potential.

  • Bonuses / company profit sharing
  • Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision
