Job Details

We are seeking a hands-on HR Generalist to help establish and support the HR function for our client's Albuquerque operations.

This position is ideal for someone with broad HR experience who enjoys solving problems and building processes. There is currently limited HR infrastructure, so we need someone who can look at the current environment, identify what is missing, prioritize needs, and take ownership of implementation.

You won't be expected to have every answer on day one, but you should know how to assess an HR problem, determine the appropriate solution, communicate your recommendation to leadership, and carry it through to completion.

Responsibilities include:

Support the development and implementation of HR policies and procedures
Review existing HR practices and identify process or compliance gaps
Help evaluate, select, and implement an HRIS
Coordinate employee onboarding and offboarding
Maintain accurate and compliant employee records
Manage I-9 documentation and employment eligibility requirements
Assist employees with benefits questions and enrollment
Support employee relations and workplace concerns
Coordinate recruiting and hiring activities as needed
Assist with performance management processes
Maintain HR documentation and reporting
Support development and maintenance of employee handbook and policies
Ensure HR practices align with applicable employment requirements
Partner closely with executive leadership on HR needs
Communicate policies and HR initiatives effectively to employees and managers
Take ownership of HR projects from identification through implementation
Serve as an approachable and dependable HR resource for employees

Qualifications

3+ years of broad Human Resources experience preferred
HR Generalist, Senior HR Coordinator, HR Specialist, HRBP, or similar background
Experience implementing or improving HR processes
HRIS implementation or system migration experience strongly preferred
Working knowledge of employment compliance and HR best practices
Experience with onboarding, I-9s, employee documentation, benefits, and employee relations
Strong organizational and project management skills
Ability to work independently and operate effectively without an established HR playbook
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Comfortable interacting directly with senior leadership
Ability to identify problems and take initiative rather than waiting for direction
Bachelor's degree preferred but not required
SHRM-CP or PHR certification is a plus
