Human Resources Generalist

As the Human Resources Generalist with the Town of Olds, you’ll help make HR easier for employees and more efficient for the people delivering it.

You’ll be part of a three-person HR team with the Manager of Human Resources and Payroll and Benefits Coordinator. Your work will touch nearly every part of the employee experience — recruitment, onboarding, employee relations, performance, benefits, records, payroll support, reporting, and process improvement.

Every day will look a little different. You might help a manager prepare for a performance conversation, coordinate interviews, answer an employee’s HR question, update records in Avanti, and then turn your attention to an HR process that could work better.

What you’ll do
• Help people navigate HR questions. You’ll provide practical guidance on policies, attendance, performance, workplace conduct, accommodations, respectful workplace matters, and other day-to-day employee concerns.
• Keep recruitment and onboarding moving. You’ll coordinate job postings, screening, interviews, references, offers, orientations, onboarding documentation, and recruitment records.
• Manage the details behind the employee lifecycle. You’ll maintain confidential employee records, process changes, support benefits administration, track attendance and leaves, and prepare HR correspondence.
• Step into payroll when needed. You’ll act as backup for monthly and biweekly payroll during approved absences, with guidance available as you learn the Town’s payroll
