The posting

Gaggle is seeking an experienced HR Generalist to oversee key areas of our people operations, including benefits administration, payroll accuracy, HR systems, and multi-state compliance across both employees and contractors. This is a role with real ownership for someone who works independently, takes initiative, and enjoys solving problems. The ideal candidate is comfortable balancing day-to-day HR administration with process improvement and is eager to identify opportunities to make our HR operations more effective and scalable. You will have a hand in shaping how HR operates at Gaggle, while supporting a positive employee experience.

Key Responsibilities

Benefits Administration

  • Own new-hire benefits enrollment and annual open enrollment administration, serving as the point of contact with our benefits broker.
  • Reconcile benefit enrollment and carrier billing and resolve discrepancies with brokers, carriers, employees, and Finance.
  • Troubleshoot benefit questions and exceptions as they come up, and catch discrepancies before they become employee-facing problems.
  • Manage COBRA notices and continuation coverage enrollment for departing employees, coordinating with our broker and carriers.
  • Manage supplemental employee engagement and perks programs.

Payroll

  • Maintain a complete, audit-ready log of every payroll-impacting change (hires, terminations, compensation, benefits, leave pay, etc.) and provide it to Finance ahead of each payroll cycle (Finance owns payroll processing, funding, reconciliation, and GL booking).
  • Partner with Finance to verify data accuracy before each payroll run and troubleshoot discrepancies as they come up.
  • Support Finance in opening new payroll tax accounts when hiring into a new state.
  • Maintain compensation reporting tools to support salary and job title analysis, flagging pay equity concerns for HR leadership.
  • Cross-train in payroll processing and procedures to provide reliable backup payroll support as needed.

HR Systems & Administrative Support

  • Maintain accurate, audit-ready employee and personnel data across Paychex, Flock, Breezy, and related systems.
  • Serve as the internal point of contact for employee questions on HR systems, and support ATS administration.
  • Build and run custom reports in Paychex, and look for ways to optimize HR processes.
  • Keep relevant HR playbooks and documentation current.
  • Oversee annual performance reviews and workforce surveys.
  • Help transition and train new HR team members as needed.
  • Cross-train on core processes as needed to maintain continuity across the team.

Compliance

  • Manage employment compliance filings (ACA, EEO-1, Form 5500, etc.), reviewing and validating vendor-prepared filings before submission.
  • Lead the annual handbook review process and Gaggle Compliance Month.
  • Build and maintain our multi-state contractor classification framework, keeping an eye on higher-risk states.
  • Take point on responding to any contractor classification challenges.

Employee Relations

  • Serve as the primary point of contact for employee relations concerns, coaching managers through routine performance and conduct conversations and looping in HR leadership on anything complex or sensitive.
  • Support workplace investigations in partnership with HR leadership, documenting findings thoroughly.
  • Help managers understand and apply HR policy consistently as people issues come up.

Qualifications

Required

  • 4+ years in an HR generalist or HR operations role that included benefits administration and payroll data management.
  • PHR (HRCI) or SHRM-CP certification.
  • Bachelor's degree in HR, business, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Hands-on experience with a full-service payroll/HRIS platform, and experience with Paychex Flex.
  • Working knowledge of multi-state compliance for employee and contractor workforces.
  • Comfortable building and pulling custom reports from a complex HRIS platform.

Preferred

  • Experience with Flock, Breezy, or a similar HRIS/ATS platform.
  • Prior experience supporting a remote or distributed team.
  • Notary Public commission, or willingness to obtain one.

Core Competencies

  • You work independently and take full ownership of your tasks without needing close supervision.
  • You're detail-oriented, taking a “measure twice, hammer once” approach to ensure accuracy.
  • You look for what needs to get done or could be improved rather than waiting to be told.
  • You work through tasks quickly and consistently, rather than letting things pile up.
  • You're a self-directed learner who enjoys figuring out new systems and processes.
  • You care about people even when they never know what you did for them.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
