The HR Administrator is a key member of our People team, supporting the employees who keep our communities running every day. In this role, you’ll help deliver a seamless employee experience across our portfolio—handling employee changes, payroll support, benefits administration, and offboarding.

You’ll partner closely with Community Managers and on-site teams to ensure HR processes are accurate, timely, and service-focused. Your work behind the scenes plays a direct role in supporting our teams and enhancing the resident experience.

We’re looking for someone who is detail-oriented, highly organized, and thrives in a fast-paced environment. If you enjoy problem-solving, communicating with care, and being part of a collaborative, people-first culture, this is a great opportunity to grow your HR career while making a meaningful impact.

• Support day-to-day HR and payroll operations, including employee updates (PAFs, benefits changes, terminations, and more)

• Manage employee leave tracking and pay coordination in UKG

• Partner with Community Managers to ensure smooth, timely offboarding experiences (final pay, bonuses, documentation)

• Help administer employee benefits, including enrollments, life events, reconciliations, and Open Enrollment support

• Respond to employee questions through the HR Help Desk – be a go-to resource for benefits and HR support

• Assist with unemployment claims and benefits-related processes

• Prepare and maintain key workforce and payroll reports (headcount, turnover, anniversaries, bonuses)

• Collaborate with Accounting on financial processes like check requests and transfers

• Support engaging HR programs such as loyalty increases and housing initiatives

• Help maintain and optimize HR systems like UKG, iCIMS, Awardco, and Calm

• Ensure accurate data management and compliance with company policies

Why You’ll Love This Role:

• Variety in your day – no two days are the same

• Opportunity to collaborate across teams and make a real impact

• Be part of a people-first team that values support, accuracy, and growth

• Demonstrated proficiency with HRIS/HR software (experience with UKG, iCIMS, Awardco, or Calm is a plus).
• Strong analytical and organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail and accuracy in data entry and reporting.
• Intermediate to advanced proficiency in spreadsheet software (e.g., Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel) for report preparation (e.g., bonus spreadsheets, turnover, and payroll reports).
• Foundational knowledge of core HR practices, including benefits administration, payroll support, and regulatory compliance.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience preferred.
• Minimum of 1-3 years of administrative experience, preferably in a Human Resources environment.

The compensation range for this role is $35.00 - $45.00 / hour.

What we’ll do for you:

• Provide a great place to work – you’ll want to show up and give your best self everyday, we promise
• Allow you to crush it – by providing you the best training programs in the industry
• Make sure you’re covered – superior health, dental, and vision insurance and a 401(k) program with matching contributions that keeps you on track for your future
• Give you a break – paid time off for vacation, sick days, holidays, and your birthday
