• Maintain accurate HR records and ensure all employee files are audit-ready
• Coordinate with staffing agencies to ensure labor quality, discipline, and accountability
• Support payroll, time tracking, and benefits coordination

• Experience working with staffing agencies / temporary labor models strongly preferred
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and responsive
• Payroll Regulations, Employee Laws, Workers Comp, Child Support, lawsuits experience

What We Expect from You

• You take ownership - you don't wait to be told what to do
• You enforce rules consistently, not selectively
• You are firm, direct, and fair - not overly soft or passive
• You can handle high-pressure situations without losing control
