The role includes coordinating background checks, connecting Talent and Operations so new employees are ready on day one, and helping run orientation sessions.

The assignment begins as a 6-month contract and may convert to a permanent role.

Key Responsibilities

• Run background checks from start to finish, including initiation, status tracking, candidate follow-up, and escalation of exceptions when needed.
• Act as the coordination point between Talent and Operations to ensure access, equipment, and first-day setup are completed before each new hire starts.
• Assist with planning and delivering new-hire orientation so each group receives the right introductions, information, and materials.
• Keep ATS and HRIS records accurate and current, monitor candidate and new-hire status, identify inconsistencies, and support clean reporting data.
• Administer benefits programs such as medical, dental, vision, life, disability, and 401(k), including enrollments, changes, and terminations.
• Respond to employee questions about benefits and route complex matters to carriers, vendors, or brokers as required.
• Support open enrollment planning and rollout through communications, employee decision-support content, and system setup.
• Work with Finance and Payroll to reconcile benefits invoices and submit carrier files on time.

Qualifications

• Background in HR operations, talent coordination, or recruiting support, with an understanding of how hiring processes function and where they can fail.

• Experience using ATS and HRIS systems and maintaining accurate records.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience handling both recruiting support and broader HR or operations work.
• Exposure to designing or facilitating new-hire orientation programs.
• Knowledge of multi-state or international benefits administration.
