The Role
We're looking for an HR Coordinator to partner with our HR Director and take independent ownership of core HR functions across the employee lifecycle. This is a hands-on role in a lean, high-trust HR function. You'll handle day-to-day HR operations with real autonomy, not just administrative support, freeing the HR Director to focus on strategic priorities like multi-state compliance, workplace investigations, and expansion work.

Manage full-cycle hiring for assigned roles, from posting through offer, including candidate screening and interview coordination
Onboarding:
Run new hire onboarding end-to-end (paperwork, I-9s, systems, first-week experience) with minimal oversight
Benefits administration:
Serve as the primary point of contact for employee benefits questions, enrollment, and life events; support open enrollment logistics
Leave administration:
Independently manage FMLA, Colorado FAMLI, and other leave requests, including tracking and employee communication
HRIS and records:
Own data integrity in the HRIS, generate reports, and maintain compliant employee files
Employee relations support:
Assist with documentation, note-taking, and follow-through on employee relations matters and investigations
Compliance tracking:
Monitor deadlines for required trainings, postings, and filings across jurisdictions
Point of contact:
Be a trusted, approachable resource for warehouse and office staff on HR questions
What You Bring
2-4 years of HR experience with demonstrated ownership of at least one core function (recruiting, benefits, or leave admin)
Working knowledge of employment law fundamentals (FMLA, state leave laws); Colorado experience a plus
Comfort operating independently and making judgment calls without heavy oversight
Strong organizational skills and ability to manage competing deadlines
Discretion with confidential and sensitive information
Clear, professional communication with employees at all levels
Comfort working in or around a warehouse/operations environment
Proficiency with HRIS platforms and Google Workspace
Nice to Have
Bilingual in English and Spanish, written and verbal
Experience in a PE-backed or high-growth startup environment
Exposure to multi-state or cross-border HR (Canada a plus, given upcoming expansion)

Base salary: $65,000–$75,000, commensurate with experience
