• Navigate internal systems, shared drives, and employee files to locate and verify required documentation.
• Review and validate I-9 records for accuracy and completion while maintaining strict confidentiality.
• Organize, track, and manage large volumes of employee documentation with a high degree of accuracy and follow-through.
• Support compliance efforts related to Hire Right and E-Verify processes.
• Partner with internal teams to communicate documentation gaps and ensure audit completion timelines are met.

• Extremely organized with exceptional attention to detail and the ability to manage high volumes of sensitive information.
• Ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and maintain accuracy in a deadline-driven environment.
• Demonstrated professionalism and experience handling confidential employee records.
