Role Overview
Based in Commerce, CA, you’ll be the connective tissue of HR operations—keeping payroll accurate, records compliant, and employees supported in both Spanish and English.

A day in the life
At 7:00 AM, you open your dashboard and scan the attendance point system, flagging trends and preparing any needed disciplinary notices for supervisor review. Before lunch, you’ve issued a couple of new security badges, answered a handful of employee questions at the HR window, and wrapped a new-hire orientation alongside the HR Generalist. The afternoon shifts to precision work—auditing employee files for federal and state compliance, completing I-9s, updating ADP for weekly and bi-weekly payroll, and assembling reports for leadership. You close the day by prepping new hire files, coordinating interviews for tomorrow, and calendaring next week’s benefits fair.
