You'll also review monthly benefits invoices to initiate the accounting reconciliation, update the employee handbook, and refresh our safety plan.

You should be comfortable navigating systems and looking for ways to automate or streamline workflows. The Right Mindset: You are early enough in your career to love the day-to-day variety of a Generalist role, but experienced enough to be trusted alone at the wheel when needed. Experience with California and Federal wage & hour laws Your Core Traits: Curiosity & Learning: You want to know the "why" behind the "what." Adaptability: You can pivot quickly from a deep-dive compliance review to an enthusiastic candidate screening call.
