HR Operations Analyst

Location: Fenton

Build Your Future with MBGMBG is more than a place to work. It’s a place to build a career you’re proud of. We focus on long‑term growth, not quick wins, and we invest in people who want to take ownership and make an impact. Here, your voice is heard, your contributions matter, and your work helps shape meaningful projects and lasting relationships.

If you’re looking for a career built on trust, opportunity, and purpose, you’ll find it  is growing and looking for an HR Operations Analyst ready to take ownership of the systems and processes our Team Members rely on every day.

The HR Operations Analyst sits at the center of our people operation, connecting Team Members, leadership and the external partners who support our Workday environment. The best fit for this role pairs real payroll discipline and systems instinct with patience for people, clear communication and the judgment to know when something needs to be escalated.

WHAT YOU WILL OWNThe HR Operations Analyst owns the operating rhythm of our people systems. You are accountable for payroll running on time and accurately, for maintaining Workday as our HCM system of record, and for Team Members getting clear answers when they need them.

Payroll Ownership and Pay Compliance Prepare, verify and complete payroll.

Submit garnishments and withholding orders.

Manage union fringe reporting.

Workday Operations and External Partners Serve as the end-user point of contact for Workday.

Collaborate with the external partners who support the environment.

Team Member Service and Inquiries Respond to Team Member questions on pay, benefits and time off.

Resolve issues at the source rather than routing them onward.

Benefits and Leave Administration Coordinate enrollment, life events and carrier accuracy with external partners.

Manage leave of absence and FMLA tracking.

Lifecycle Transactions and Onboarding Process hires, changes and departures with accurate data and timing.

Ensure new hire compliance.

Compliance and Reporting Maintain EEO-1, OSHA 300A and other required filings.

Support performance and employee relations processes with clean documentation.

HOW THIS ROLE WORKS WITH LEADERSHIP The HR Operations Analyst partners closely with accounting, talent acquisition and project teams to keep our people operation accurate and responsive. In this role, candor matters. Raising an issue early, flagging a risk in the data and bringing a recommendation rather than just a problem is what keeps small things from becoming payroll corrections.

Regular interaction is focused on:

Aligning on the payroll calendar, upcoming deadlines and anything that could move them.

Reviewing data accuracy, open Workday items and the status of work sitting with external partners.

Escalating compliance questions, complex pay situations and anything requiring a second review before it is finalized.

Coordinating onboarding handoffs with talent acquisition so new Team Members have a positive experience.

Clearing obstacles quickly through direct communication and shared accountability.

The expectation is professional, transparent communication, especially when something looks off.

EXPERIENCE EXPECTATIONS This role is a strong fit for someone with three to five years in HR operations who has personally owned a payroll cycle, start to finish, not just supported one. Hands-on Workday experience is required, and experience in multiple modules (Core HCM, Payroll, Benefits and Absence) will serve you well here.

You should be able to submit garnishments and withholding orders correctly, work effectively through external providers without losing ownership of the outcome, and maintain deadlines.

Multi-state and multi-entity payroll experience is preferred, as is exposure to construction or project based work.…
