  • Partner with IT and internal teams to coordinate access, equipment, and systems
  • Ensure new hire data is accurate across HR and payroll systems

Compliance & Drug Testing Programs

  • Coordinate pre‑employment, random, post‑incident, and other testing events
  • Maintain compliance with regulatory standards and third‑party audit requirements

Recruiting Partnership

  • Support recruiting teams with onboarding coordination and high‑volume hiring efforts
  • Maintain headcount, staffing, and onboarding reports
  • Act as a go‑to resource for candidates and new hires during onboarding


What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of experience in HR, onboarding, or HR operations
  • Strong knowledge of employment laws and compliance best practices
  • Experience supporting high‑volume or distributed workforces
  • Hands‑on experience with HRIS systems (UKG strongly preferred)
  • Familiarity with DOT regulations and drug‑testing protocols is a big plus
  • Highly organized, detail‑oriented, and comfortable juggling multiple priorities
  • Excellent communication skills and strong follow‑through
  • Certifications such as SHRM‑CP/PHR are preferred (or in progress).
