The Opportunity

Join a growing hospitality and events organization in a hands-on Bilingual Human Resource Generalist role supporting both field teams and leadership. You’ll help bring structure, consistency, and clarity to HR processes while working closely with an experienced HR leader in a fast-moving, multi-location environment.

This role blends systems work, employee support, and operational HR execution – ideal for someone who enjoys being both in the details and in direct connection with employees.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Competitive Base Salary of $64-71K, before bonus and commensurate with experience
  • Direct partnership with an experienced HR leader
  • High visibility across multiple operational locations
  • Opportunity to build structure in a scaling organization
  • Ownership of both systems and employee-facing HR work
  • Strong, engaged field teams and collaborative culture
  • Real influence over processes, workflows, and employee experience

Core Impact Areas

  • Manage full employee lifecycle including onboarding, changes, benefits, and offboarding
  • Maintain accurate employee data and workflows within HRIS (Paycom preferred)
  • Support day-to-day HR operations across multiple locations and teams
  • Serve as bilingual HR support for employees and managers (English/Spanish)
  • Assist with employee relations matters including documentation and resolution support
  • Support compliance activities including audits, policies, and handbook updates
  • Help ensure adherence to federal, state, and local employment regulations
  • Prepare HR reporting on headcount, turnover, and compliance metrics
  • Partner with leadership to improve HR processes and operational workflows
  • Support consistency of HR practices across all field locations

How You’ll Succeed Here

  • Fully fluent in English and Spanish (written and verbal)
  • Comfortable supporting hourly and field-based teams with professionalism and empathy
  • Strong balance of people skills and operational discipline
  • Highly organized with the ability to manage competing priorities
  • Trusted by employees and leadership alike for discretion and follow-through
  • Comfortable in evolving environments where structure is being built and refined
  • Skilled at navigating sensitive conversations with clarity and neutrality
  • Motivated by improving systems, not just maintaining them

Experience & Background

  • 5+ years of HR Generalist or HR Operations experience
  • Experience supporting employee lifecycle processes and compliance
  • HRIS experience required; Paycom experience strongly preferred
  • Working knowledge of employment law and HR compliance requirements
  • Experience in hospitality, restaurant, retail, or multi-site environments preferred
  • Strong communication, documentation, and organizational skills
  • Bachelor’s degree in HR, Business, or related field preferred
  • Ability to travel locally between operational sites as needed

Role Style

This is a hands-on, field-connected HR role—not a purely administrative or corporate HR function. You’ll be actively involved in both systems and people support while helping build structure in a growing organization.
