Job description

Corporate Tools in Post Falls, Idaho is adding another Human Resources Business Partner to our team. You will join a team of other HR Partners and start off supporting a client group of about 300 employees and leaders. Expect for this number to continue to grow. Our vision is to create and foster a workplace that is better and more fulfilling for our employees than anywhere else. The work we do creates organizational structure to allow employees the freedom to achieve their highest potential in an environment where they are valued, respected, and challenged to do amazing stuff every day.

We’re not looking for just any HR Partner, more of an HR rebel. For you, common sense rules over unnecessary processes and policies. We do what makes sense, while being legally compliant, but not getting tangled up in the corporate HR mumbo jumbo. What exactly is HR mumbo jumbo? How about those 500 page employee manuals that outline every single rule for every single possible situation that could occur. Yeah, that’s not us. HR rebels… read on.

Training and onboarding takes place in office. But after the first 60 days or so, you will have the flexibility to work 2-ish days from home.

Wage:

$90,000/year

• 100% employer-paid medical, dental and vision for employees
• Annual review with raise option
• 22 days Paid Time Off accrued annually, and 4 holidays
  • After 3 years, PTO increases to 29 days. Employees transition to flexible time off after 5 years with the company—not accrued, not capped, take time off when you want
  • The 4 holidays are: New Year’s Day, Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, and Christmas Day
• Up to 6% company matching 401(k) with no vesting period
• Quarterly allowance
  • Use to make your remote work set up more comfortable, for continuing education classes, a plant for your desk, coffee for your coworker, a massage for yourself... really, whatever
• Open concept office with friendly coworkers
• Creative environment where you can make a difference
• No dumb benefits like free dog walking on the weekends that snobby hipster places have to make you feel cool, but mathematically won't cost the company much money because you won't use it
• Trail Mix Bar --- oh yeah

Responsibilities:

• Primary focus is our employees. Connect and collaborate daily with employees both remote and in-person. Be a resource and an advocate
• Handle employment-related inquiries from employees, candidates, leadership and external personnel
• Lead new hire on-boarding by administering paperwork, conducting training and collecting employment documents and other information as needed
• Stay up-to-date with federal, state and local employment laws and recommend best practices as they relate to policies and procedures
• Provide support to employees and leadership in various HR-related topics such as leaves, performance management, conflict resolution and other situations as they arise
• Work on special projects related to benefit offerings, compliance and other areas
• Champion the culture of the company - ensuring that their unique voices, perspectives, and challenges are heard

Requirements:

• 8+ years of progressive human resources experience
• Comprehensive knowledge and skills in compensation strategies and practices, organization assessment, planning, design and development.
• Experience maintaining compliance with state employment law for multiple states and building out policy, process, and best practices that help others do so.
• Experience providing HR support to employees during periods of organizational change. This may involve helping employees adapt to new ways of thinking.
• Ability to effectively work independently but can also collaborate with a team when needed. Takes initiative to complete tasks and improve processes.
• SHRM-CP or SHRM-SCP preferred
• Our company operates in a Product Organized structure with two week sprint cycles, stand ups and sprint planning. Previous experience working in sprints, breaking down projects into actionable steps with milestones and using Confluence and Jira preferred but not required. If you don't have experience working in this structure, we'll teach you, but we are looking for someone who is open and willing to work within this methodology.
• Demonstrated experience building relationships with employees, managers and stakeholders to collaborate across multiple teams in multiple locations
• Experience establishing programs and leading them end-to-end while scaling for growth
• A master multi-tasker and enjoy wearing all the HR hats
• Proven ability to conduct employee relations investigations and provide appropriate recommendations and administer/manage all employee leaves

You’re a strategic HR Business Partner that enjoys thinking big picture while connecting it to the day to day variety of duties coming at you. You function well in a busy environment that varies from operational HR to meaty, interesting projects. As we grow we recognize what worked for us last year may not work well for us this year. You’ll need to have the ability to evolve not just yourself, but the way we do things, for better efficiency, compliance and productivity. You want to work for a company that puts employees first and operates in a “do what makes sense” mentality to make your job more enjoyable and less like policing.
