HR Administrator Jobs in Princeton, NJ

A HR Administrator is a crucial figure in the human resources industry, responsible for undertaking a range of administrative duties that support the smooth running of a HR department. Their tasks typically include maintaining employee records, managing HR documents such as employment contracts and recruitment documents, processing payroll, and carrying out initial screening of job applicants. They may also be asked to assist with disciplinary procedures, employee training, and benefits administration. They are often the first point of contact for HR-related queries from employees and external partners.

Key skills for a HR Administrator include strong organizational abilities, excellent attention-to-detail, and good communication skills. Proficiency in various HR software (HRIS or HRMS) as well as MS Office is also desirable. In terms of qualifications, a degree in human resources or business administration is often required, and certification such as PHR (Professional in Human Resources) or SHRM-CP (Society for Human Resource Management Certified Professional) can further enhance job prospects. Prior to becoming a HR Administrator, a person may have roles as a HR Assistant, Office Administrator or Payroll Clerk.
