Senior Human Resources Generalist

About the Role

As Senior HR Generalist, you'll own the full employee lifecycle for TBGA — recruiting, onboarding, benefits, employee relations, compliance, and HR data — with the autonomy of a small firm and the resources of a well-established one. No two days look the same, and that's the point: you'll move fluidly between strategic projects (compensation benchmarking, ESOP administration, policy development) and hands-on execution (onboarding a new hire, answering a benefits question, running payroll data). This role reports into a collaborative team but rewards a genuine self-starter.

Talent Acquisition & Onboarding

  • Serve as the go-to resource for employee benefits questions and vendor coordination

  • Support open enrollment and annual plan reviews

  • Ensure ACA compliance and reporting

Employee Relations & Compliance

  • Guide employees and managers through policy questions, performance concerns, and workplace matters

  • Maintain working knowledge of federal and multi-state employment law (with ADP support); escalate as needed

HR Operations & Systems

  • Maintain accurate employee records in Deltek Vantagepoint and ensure data integrity across HR/payroll systems

What You Bring

  • 6–10+ years of progressive HR generalist experience

  • Working knowledge of multi-state employment law compliance

  • Experience with benefits administration, including self-insured or HRA-based health plans

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable handling sensitive matters with discretion

  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to juggle multiple priorities

  • U.S. Citizen (no dual citizenship) required for this role

Nice to Haves

  • Experience supporting an ESOP or 401(k) plan

  • Familiarity with ICHRA or HRA benefit structures
