We are looking for a Human Resources Operations Specialist. This role will play a key role in keeping Britebound’s People & Culture operations running smoothly.

What You’ll Do:
Administer all employee benefit programs, including health, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, and retirement plans.
Manage benefit enrollments, changes, and terminations within UKG and with vendors.
Coordinate annual open enrollment, prepare communications, and assist employees with benefit selections.
Reconcile benefit invoices and resolve discrepancies promptly.
Serve as the primary contact for benefits inquiries and ensure compliance with COBRA, HIPAA, ACA, and ERISA.
Liaise between HR and Payroll to ensure all employee changes (new hires, terminations, pay adjustments, deductions) are accurately processed.
Audit payroll-related data and partner with Finance on reporting and process improvements.
Support year-end payroll and benefits processes (W-2, ACA, 1095-C).
Partner with the HRIS Lead to maintain and update data within UKG, including employee records, job changes, and organizational structure.
Troubleshoot, test, and generate reports within UKG modules such as Core HR, Benefits, and Timekeeping.
Run standard and ad hoc reports to support HR, Payroll, and compliance activities.
Support HRIS projects, enhancements, and user testing to continuously improve system performance.
Ensure accurate data flow between HR, Payroll, and Benefits systems.
About You:
Preferred:

Experience in a mid-sized organization (50–500 employees).
Demonstrated ability to streamline HR processes through technology and collaboration
Hourly Rate: $40.00 - $50.00/hr
