The posting
A2G International is a growing aviation and government contracting company with a close-knit team where every employee has a meaningful impact on the business. As a small organization, we value people who are comfortable taking ownership, working across functions, improving processes, and solving problems without waiting for a large support structure.
We're looking for an experienced Human Resources & Operations Generalist who is an organized, polished, and dependable professional to own our recruiting and HR administration while keeping day-to-day operations running smoothly and helping establish scalable processes for A2G’s continued growth.
This is a hands-on role for someone who understands that HR in a small company is not narrowly defined. The right person will be equally comfortable recruiting a hard-to-fill position, onboarding a new employee, working with payroll and benefits providers, maintaining personnel records, coordinating travel, improving an internal process, and helping leadership keep the organization running smoothly.
The Human Resources & Operations Generalist will serve as A2G's primary day-to-day resource for recruiting, employee administration, and HR operations. This position will manage the employee lifecycle from recruiting through offboarding, coordinate with outside payroll and benefit providers, maintain HR systems and records, support company travel and administrative operations, and help develop the processes and infrastructure needed as A2G grows. The role works closely with company leadership, finance, managers, and A2G's parent-company resources while progressively transitioning appropriate day-to-day activities to A2G.

• Help maintain HR processes in compliance with labor laws and company policies, and document and standardize procedures as the company grows
Administrative & Operations Support
• Support calendars and scheduling for leadership and the team as needed
• Coordinate employee and contractor travel arrangements (flights, hotels, itineraries) in accordance with company policy and approved budgets
• Maintain HR and administrative records, correspondence, recurring documentation, and other business support items
• Review expense documentation for completeness and follow up on missing support before submission to Finance
• Keep shared documents, templates, and trackers organized and up to date
