@jomarpena
I advise leaders on employee relations, benefits strategy, compliance, and people operations across complex multi-state workforces.
What I'm looking for
At ADP TotalSource, I advise more than 50 client organizations representing approximately 3,500 employees on benefits strategy, compliance, employee experience, and workforce initiatives.
I partner with executives to align benefit programs, service strategy, and employee communications with retention and organizational goals. My work includes ACA, COBRA, ERISA, disability plans, HSA/FSA administration, open enrollment, and multi-state compliance.
As a Client Human Resources Business Partner, I served as the primary HR advisor to 20+ organizations and led investigations involving harassment, discrimination, workplace conduct, performance, and policy violations. I helped reduce employee issue-resolution timelines by approximately 30% through stronger collaboration across HR, payroll, benefits, and operations.
Previously, at Manhattan Beer Distributors, I led a four-person HR team supporting a unionized workforce of more than 500 employees. I bring 12+ years of experience building practical HR processes, coaching managers, mitigating risk, and improving employee experiences.
