Reporting directly to the SVP of Finance & Accounting, the Human Resources Manager will support a wide range of people operations and compliance activities that keep the business moving forward. This role is well-suited for an HR professional who thrives in an evolving environment, and knows when to lean in, ask questions, or offer a thoughtful counterpoint.

You’ll play a key role in ensuring HR processes run smoothly, priorities stay on track, and employees have a reliable, steady partner as the company continues to grow. Ideal for someone with several years of hands-on experience who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, navigating competing demands, and being a trusted driver behind the scenes.

· Employee Lifecycle Management: Oversee recruiting logistics in coordination with managers and external recruiters; support new hire onboarding, orientation, and offboarding processes to ensure a positive employee experience.

· Employee Relations: Serve as a point of contact for employees regarding HR policies, procedures, and programs; address general inquiries and assist with conflict resolution, escalating complex issues as needed.

· Compliance & Recordkeeping: Maintain accurate and up-to-date employee files and HR records in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations, and company policies; assist with ongoing compliance initiatives (e.g., safety training, HR audits, documentation).

· Performance Management & Development: Support the performance review process and assist managers with coaching and development plans to ensure a high-performing, engaged workforce.

· Policy Implementation: Help develop, communicate, and enforce HR-related policies, procedures, and best practices that foster a respectful, inclusive, and productive workplace.

· Payroll Processing: Manage semi-monthly payroll processing for hourly and salaried employees, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance with federal, state, and local regulations.

· Time & Attendance Management: Oversee timekeeping systems; verify and reconcile time records to ensure proper calculation of wages and overtime.

· Benefit Administration: Assist with annual benefits enrollment, reconcile monthly benefit invoices, and address employee questions regarding health, dental, vision, retirement, and other benefit programs.

· Leave & Compensation Tracking: Support administration of leave programs (FMLA, state-specific leaves, vacation) and maintain accurate compensation records.
