About The Position

Our residents count on our employees, and our employees count on HR — we’re looking for someone who takes that responsibility to heart.

This role plays a direct part in supporting the people who bring that mission to life. We’re looking for an HR Generalist who brings energy, ownership, and genuine care to their work — someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, notices the details others miss, and takes full responsibility for the work they lead while still being ready to support the team when needed.
