  • Collect and review required new-hire documentation, including tax forms, direct deposit information, employment agreements, policies, acknowledgments, and other required documents.

  • Coordinate and track background checks, drug screenings, employment verification, and other pre-employment requirements as applicable.

  • Enter and maintain accurate employee information within HRIS, payroll, onboarding, and other internal systems.

  • Review onboarding documentation for accuracy and completeness before employees are cleared to begin work.

  • Follow up with employees regarding missing or incomplete information to prevent delays in start dates.

  • Coordinate with internal HR, payroll, benefits, recruiting, operations, and client teams to ensure successful employee onboarding.

  • Assist employees with questions regarding onboarding paperwork, payroll setup, benefits enrollment, company policies, and employment procedures.

  • Maintain accurate employee records and ensure confidential information is handled appropriately.

  • Track onboarding progress across a large volume of simultaneous new hires and proactively identify potential issues or delays.

  • Ensure onboarding activities comply with company procedures and applicable federal, state, and local employment requirements.

  • Support employee changes, rehires, transfers, terminations, and other employment-related administrative processes as needed.

  • Identify opportunities to improve onboarding processes, workflows, communication, and overall employee experience.
Qualifications

  • 2+ years of employee onboarding, HR administration, HR operations, payroll/EOR, staffing, or related experience preferred.

  • Previous experience managing high-volume onboarding strongly preferred.

  • Experience within a PEO, EOR, staffing, payroll, or multi-client HR environment is highly desirable.

  • Working knowledge of new-hire documentation and employment onboarding requirements.

  • Experience with I-9 verification and employment eligibility documentation.

  • Experience using HRIS, payroll, ATS, or employee onboarding platforms.

  • Strong data-entry skills with exceptional attention to detail and accuracy.

  • Ability to manage a large number of employees and onboarding tasks simultaneously without sacrificing quality.

  • Strong organizational and time-management skills.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

  • Comfortable communicating directly with employees, clients, and internal departments.

  • Ability to prioritize urgent issues and meet strict onboarding and start-date deadlines.

  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to identify and resolve onboarding issues quickly.

  • Ability to handle confidential employee information professionally.

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office, including Outlook, Word, and Excel.
What We're Looking For
The successful candidate will be someone who is organized, responsive, detail-oriented, and comfortable working at a fast pace. This role requires someone who can take ownership of the onboarding process, stay ahead of deadlines, and ensure new employees receive a professional and efficient onboarding experience.

Experience handling dozens of onboarding activities at the same time and working in an environment where priorities can change quickly will be particularly valuable.
