People & Culture, Coordinator

Atlas Restaurant Group • Baltimore, MD

1d • Onsite

About The Position

People are at the heart of what we do. At Atlas Restaurant Group, hospitality isn’t just what we serve our guests. It’s how we show up for our people, too. We’re looking for a People + Culture, Coordinator team member who brings that same spirit of hospitality to every employee interaction. This role is an important part of creating a consistent, thoughtful, and people-centered experience across Atlas — from a new hire’s very first day to the many moments that make up their journey with us. You’ll be a trusted resource for employees and restaurant leaders, helping navigate People + Culture processes while keeping the details accurate, the communication clear, and the experience feeling distinctly Atlas. If you’re organized, approachable, naturally curious, and someone who genuinely enjoys helping people, we’d love to meet you.

Requirements

• A genuine people-first, service-minded approach. You understand that how we support our employees matters just as much as what we do.
• Strong organizational and time-management skills, with an eye for the details that keep things running smoothly.
• Clear, friendly, and professional communication skills and the ability to connect with people at all levels of the organization.
• The ability to manage multiple priorities, meet deadlines, and stay calm when things get busy.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the curiosity to investigate a discrepancy rather than simply pass it along.
• Working knowledge of Workers’ Compensation, unemployment processes, employment standards, or HR operations.
• Comfort working with confidential information and exercising good judgment.
• A team-first mindset and willingness to roll up your sleeves. Hospitality is a team sport.
• 1+ year of experience in Human Resources, People + Culture, employee experience, or administrative support.
• Post-secondary education in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.

Nice To Haves

• Familiarity with HRIS, payroll, and timekeeping systems commonly used in hospitality, such as ADP Workforce Now, Toast, or Payday Portal, is a plus.
• Restaurant or hospitality experience is a plus.
• Familiarity with HRIS and People + Culture tools is preferred, but we’ll teach you the Atlas way.
• Basic understanding of employment standards, payroll fundamentals, or employee lifecycle processes is an asset.
• Co-op, internship, volunteer, or other hands-on experience in HR or People + Culture is welcome.

Responsibilities

• Serve as a responsive, approachable resource for employees and leaders, providing internal hospitality and helping answer People + Culture questions.
• Partner with People + Culture Partners and restaurant leadership to support our teams and create a consistent employee experience across our locations.
• Coordinate and execute onboarding processes from offer acceptance through a new hire’s first days with Atlas.
• Partner with field leadership to ensure new hires have what they need to feel welcomed, prepared, and connected.

• Maintain the integrity and accuracy of our HRIS by processing hires, terminations, transfers, promotions, pay changes, and other employee updates.

• Support payroll-related processes and deadlines by identifying discrepancies, following up on missing information, and helping resolve issues quickly.
• Help keep our People + Culture systems, processes, and records organized, accurate, and up to date.
• Support employee engagement initiatives, internal communications, and People + Culture programs.
• Coordinate Workers’ Compensation and unemployment processes, including claims, documentation, follow-up, and communication with employees, managers, and third-party partners.
• Maintain required labor law postings across all Atlas locations.
• Support People + Culture projects and initiatives that make our processes more efficient, consistent, and people-centered.
• Model Atlas values and our hospitality mindset in every interaction.
• Handle employee information with discretion, confidentiality, and care.
• Stay current on applicable federal, state, and local employment requirements and help support compliance with company policies and best practices.
• Jump in where needed, bring a solutions-oriented mindset, and be someone our restaurants can count on.
