HR Generalist

About the role

The HR Generalist is an experienced, independent HR professional within Ren’s Center of Excellence for Total Rewards, Onboarding & Culture. This role owns the design and execution of Ren’s onboarding program and leads culture and employee engagement programming that creates lasting connections for new hires and drives organizational belonging.

Responsibilities

• Support the design and launch of Ren’s end-to-end onboarding program — from pre-boarding through 90 days — including Day 1 experience, structured integration touchpoints, and role-specific tracks, under the guidance of the VP and with the opportunity to shape how the program comes to life.
• Help build scalable onboarding frameworks that serve employees across functions, levels, and work arrangements (in-person, hybrid, remote), applying learned best practices and adapting approaches as needs evolve.
• Collaborate with hiring managers and cross-functional partners to understand new hire needs and organizational context, leading the development of tailored onboarding tracks and exercising independent judgment on program design decisions.
• Career development and enablement
• Support the establishment of 30/60/90-day integration frameworks, buddy programs, and cross-functional introduction structures that help new hires get up to speed quickly and feel connected to the organization.
• Participate in the operating rhythm — cross-center syncs, the People Ops initiative calendar, and touchpoints with HR Business Partners — contributing to a connected employee lifecycle experience.

Qualifications

• Demonstrated ownership of program design and launch — direct experience leading the end-to-end development of onboarding, engagement, or culture initiatives, with accountability for outcomes.
• Skilled at influencing and advising managers and internal stakeholders — builds credible working relationships, navigates complex interpersonal dynamics, and drives program alignment across diverse audiences.
• Expertise in integrating adjacent HR disciplines — designs cohesive employee experiences that connect onboarding, culture, and engagement, and applies cross-functional knowledge to shape program strategy.
• Proven ability to develop and own manager-facing resources and cross-functional coordination frameworks; creates polished, strategically calibrated content for people-leader audiences with minimal direction.
• Demonstrated AI fluency: willingness and ability to use AI tools (e.g., generative AI, automation platforms) to improve onboarding content, engagement programming, and workflow efficiency; practical, curious approach to technology adoption.
• Strong project leadership and organizational capability — manages complex, concurrent workstreams independently, sets priorities across competing demands, and drives cross-functional initiatives to completion.
• Strong written and verbal communication — drafts manager guides, new hire communications, and program documentation with clarity and warmth; able to adapt style for different audiences.
• Proficiency with HRIS and onboarding platforms (e.g., Workday, Rippling, BambooHR, or equivalent); experience configuring workflows, running reports, and optimizing platform use to support program delivery.
