Manager Notes-
Experience with Office platforms, so Excel, PowerPoint, Sharepoint, ADP, and Asana are preferred.
This is a very compliance-heavy role, so the role will be more tech-heavy - creating reports, presenting information, project tracking, data analytics, etc., and the people-aspect would just be presenting these findings and serving as the knowledge expert for this project's related questions.
From a Strategy Perspective, this role will require creating/changing HR projects for organizations + legal/compliance work. This is not an HR Generalist Role.
