Join Step Up, a dynamic non-profit organization dedicated to empowering individuals and families experiencing homelessness through innovative housing, mental health, and support services. As the Human Resources Coordinator, you will play a pivotal role in building a compassionate and efficient workforce, ensuring our team is equipped to deliver life-changing impact across Southern California communities. Your contributions will directly support our mission by maintaining high standards of employee engagement and operational excellence in a mission-driven environment. In this key position, you will handle a variety of daily tasks including screening resumes, scheduling interviews, and coordinating onboarding for new hires and volunteers. Weekly, you will update employee records in HR systems, process payroll changes, and facilitate training sessions on company policies. Monthly responsibilities encompass preparing compliance reports for labor laws, organizing team-building events, and conducting exit interviews to gather insights for retention strategies. You will collaborate closely with department managers, program directors, and executive leadership to align HR initiatives with organizational goals, manage benefits enrollment periods, track performance metrics like turnover rates, and support diversity hiring initiatives. Additionally, you will assist in developing volunteer programs, ensuring all participants receive proper orientation and ongoing support to maximize their contributions to our programs. Candidates must possess a Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field, along with at least 2-3 years of HR coordination experience, preferably in the non-profit sector. Proficiency in HR software such as BambooHR or ADP, Microsoft Office Suite, and Google Workspace is essential. Familiarity with California employment laws, including wage and hour regulations, is required, as is experience with volunteer management systems. HR certifications like PHR or SHRM-CP are highly desirable, along with a strong understanding of compliance standards for non-profits receiving grants and public funding. Success in this role demands exceptional organizational skills, meticulous attention to detail, and outstanding communication abilities to interact with diverse stakeholders. You should exhibit empathy and cultural sensitivity, crucial for supporting our vulnerable populations and staff. Proficiency in data analysis for HR metrics, problem-solving in fast-paced settings, and a proactive approach to process improvements will set you apart. Strong interpersonal skills for conflict resolution and team collaboration are vital in our collaborative, values-driven culture. Step Up is a trailblazing non-profit founded to provide permanent supportive housing and comprehensive services to end homelessness. Our mission emphasizes dignity, hope, and self-sufficiency, guided by core values of innovation, integrity, and inclusivity. With a team of over 200 dedicated professionals and volunteers, we foster a supportive work environment that promotes work-life balance, professional growth, and community impact. What makes us unique is our holistic approach, blending housing solutions with mental health and employment services in a vibrant, coastal Santa Monica hub.
