The City of Clayton is looking for a Human Resources Generalist to join our team and help support employees throughout the organization. This is a broad, hands-on HR role with opportunities to work across recruiting, benefits, employee relations, HRIS, payroll, compliance, onboarding, employee engagement and training.
 
You should be comfortable talking with employees and supervisors, asking questions, listening carefully, explaining policies and helping people work through workplace issues. At the same time, you'll spend plenty of time working independently-researching, organizing information, maintaining records and making sure the details are right. You don't have to know everything about municipal HR when you walk through the door. We can teach you our systems and processes. What matters most is that you're someone people can trust, who enjoys helping others, exercises good judgment and takes pride in getting the details right.

Typical hours for this position are Monday - Friday, 8:00am - 5:00pm with occasional early mornings and late evenings to support employee events.

This is an exempt position with a starting salary of $67,394.78.
