Human Resources Coordinator

We’re hiring an HR Coordinator in Downtown Chicago

This is a hands‑on, execution‑led HR role for someone who actually enjoys keeping the wheels turning. Not strategy decks. Not recruiting‑only. Real HR operations that matter day to day.

You’d be joining the central team of an investment‑backed organization that supports multiple operating businesses. HR here is practical, visible, and close to the business — onboarding people, supporting payroll and benefits, maintaining clean systems, and being a reliable point of contact for employees.

If you like being in the details, this role will suit you. If you prefer purely advisory or senior HR work, it won’t.

• You’re embedded in day‑to‑day operations, not removed from them
• Exposure to multiple teams and business entities
• Clear ownership over onboarding, HR systems, payroll & benefits support
• A fast‑moving environment where follow‑through actually gets noticed
• Room to grow as the organization scales

• 1–3 years in HR coordination or HR operations
• Comfortable juggling multiple workflows without dropping the ball
• Organized, dependable, and calm under pressure
• Enjoys supporting employees while keeping processes clean and consistent
• Wants to build a strong HR foundation, not skip steps
