HR Generalist

Description

Our residents count on our employees, and our employees count on HR — we’re looking for someone who takes that responsibility to heart. If you thrive in a role where every day is full, purposeful, and people-centered, this might be your next great fit.

We’re a small, high-trust HR team supporting 500 employees who care for 700 residents across 10 senior living communities throughout the State of Maine. Our mission is simple and powerful: to make each day the best day possible for the residents we serve, while bringing peace of mind to the people who love them. This role plays a direct part in supporting the people who bring that mission to life.

We’re looking for an HR Generalist who brings energy, ownership, and genuine care to their work — someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, notices the details others miss, and takes full responsibility for the work they lead while still being ready to support the team when needed.
