Who We’re Looking For We are seeking a hands-on, execution-focused Human Resources Manager who thrives in an operational environment. This role is not purely administrative or advisory—this person will build, run, and continuously improve the HR function while supporting day-to-day business operations. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, process-driven, and comfortable operating with a high level of ownership. You are equally comfortable handling transactional HR work as you are improving systems, enforcing standards, and driving accountability across the organization. Job Responsibilities

Run day-to-day HR operations, ensuring consistency, accuracy, and timeliness across all processes
Administer benefits programs and actively manage relationships with brokers and providers

Maintain and enforce job descriptions, policies, and standard operating procedures
Address employee issues directly and work with managers to drive timely resolution
Maintain accurate, audit-ready personnel records and documentation
Manage Safety Consortium participation and track DOT driver eligibility status
Support implementation and enforcement of DOT, Safety, and Environmental Health policies
Drive the performance review process and ensure completion across all departments
Own HRIS (Paylocity) administration, data integrity, and reporting
Implement and track required training programs, ensuring completion and compliance
Partner with Accounting to ensure payroll changes and updates are accurate and timely
Build, document, and continuously improve SOPs across all HR functions
Conduct compensation benchmarking and provide practical, data-driven recommendations
Monitor multi-state employment law requirements and ensure policies remain aligned
Support leadership in executing HR initiatives tied directly to operational and financial performance
Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business, or related field (or equivalent experience)
Minimum of 3 years of hands-on HR experience in an operational environment

Experience with DOT regulatory compliance strongly preferred
Strong working knowledge of multi-state employment laws
Excellent communication skills with the ability to be direct, clear, and solution-oriented
High level of accountability, ownership, and follow-through
