  • Demonstrated ability to work independently while contributing to a small, collaborative HR team
  • Strong understanding of employment law, employee relations, leave management, and compliance practices
  • Sound recruiting judgment with the ability to assess candidate fit beyond technical qualifications
  • Technology-savvy with comfort learning and optimizing HR systems (UKG experience a plus, not required)
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred
  • SHRM-CP certification preferred or willingness to obtain within the first year
  • Professional presence, strong work ethic, initiative, and a hands-on approach to problem-solving

Work Environment

This role is primarily onsite in Northwest New Jersey, with typical hours of 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM and flexibility to extend the workday when needed to support business needs.
