HR Generalist/Recruiter

Overview

KW Corporation, INC doubled in size last year (both in revenue and in people)! We are looking for a dedicated HR Generalist to work closely with the Controller, as this is a new role that is currently handled by the Controller, who can’t keep up! This position is full-time, but flexibility in hours is a real possibility. Once fully trained, this role can be mostly remote, but will still require onsite presence (in Fowlerville) when a new employee is onboarded, typically a few times a month. It is important that this person can be physically present on the few days it is needed, and will be encouraged to work from the office once per week to connect with staff. The rest of the week, remote work will be suitable.

Hours: M-F 8 am- 5pm (flexible)

Exemption Status: Non-Exempt. Hourly, Overtime if applicable

Core Duties: Maintaining employee records, supporting the recruitment process, answering employee benefits questions, assisting with training logistics, coordinating employee recognition activities, and generally providing administrative support to the Controller. Above all of that, this HR Generalist will be the FUN, organized and energetic face that KW wants all of their employees to know and trust. This role will make the important first impression that sets the tone and will continue to be the person who can be counted on to be an advocate for the employees (just safely and professionally!).

Core Competencies: 2 years HR experience is desired, but we are after the personality fit, so you are encouraged to apply if you: Enjoy being busy! Work well with deadlines and can self-pace. Geek out over an organized inbox and a checklist that you can tackle. Love to interact with people. Are motivated to learn a lot and have a desire to help improve processes. And have experience in Quickbooks Online, Microsoft products and/or Employee Navigator. Our ideal candidate has a sense of humor and is approachable.
