Join Our Team as an Employee Relations Analyst — Be the Bridge Between People and Policy

Are you passionate about creating thriving workplace cultures where people feel heard, respected, and empowered? We’re looking for an Employee Relations Analyst who will serve as a trusted advisor to our leaders, guiding them on employee relations best practices and helping us cultivate an environment of fairness, accountability, and growth for all coworkers.

Note: This role is primarily conducted over the phone, supporting leaders and coworkers across multiple locations with empathy, clarity, and professionalism.

What You’ll Be Doing:

As an Employee Relations Analyst, you’ll support employee relations across the organization—intaking concerns, documenting cases, assisting investigations, and helping leaders apply policies fairly and consistently. You’ll play a critical role in strengthening our workplace culture while minimizing risk and ensuring compliance. Your day-to-day will include:

• Coaching leaders across the organization to ensure employment decisions align with our mission, values, and all relevant employment laws
• Leading or supporting thorough, objective workplace investigations involving employee complaints, policy violations, or other workplace concerns—including documentation, analysis, and well-reasoned resolution recommendations
• Providing thoughtful coaching and guidance to leaders and coworkers to navigate performance issues, interpersonal conflict, and workplace challenges
• Designing and implementing fair, effective, and consistent employee relations strategies
• Ensuring consistent application of company policies and full adherence to local, state, and federal regulations (e.g., FMLA, ADA, EEO, Title VII, etc.)

You’ll be part of a collaborative, forward-thinking team that values both autonomy and support—where your voice matters and your work drives meaningful change.

What We’re Looking For:

• A Bachelor's degree in HR, Sociology, Psychology, or equivalent experience
• At least 1 year of general HR, social work, or leadership experience (2+ years with direct employee relations preferred)
• Strong working knowledge of employment laws (EEO, FMLA, ADA, FLSA, NLRA, etc.)
• Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills—confident with sensitive conversations and able to build trust
• Proven ability to handle confidential information with discretion
• Customer-first mindset and high emotional intelligence
• Solid judgment and time management skills, with the ability to stay organized in a fast-paced environment
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office and a sharp eye for detail

Why You’ll Love It Here:

We’re not just filling a role—we’re building a team of passionate, values-driven professionals who care about people as much as performance. Here, your work has purpose. You’ll be empowered to grow, supported to lead, and inspired to make a difference every day.
