• Prepare orientation and new-hire paperwork, enter information into the HRIS, and create and maintain accurate electronic employment files.
• Monitor multiple onboarding cases and deadlines, proactively resolve missing information or potential delays, and ensure compliance with organizational policies and applicable regulations.

Minimal Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources or a related field, or an equivalent combination of relevant education and experience.
• One to two years of recent experience in high-volume recruiting, onboarding, or a similar Human Resources role.

• Exceptional attention to detail, accountability, follow-through, and customer service, with the ability to communicate effectively with providers and organizational leaders.
