@josuecheco-caballero
Human resources professional fluent in Spanish, experienced in payroll, employee relations, and onboarding.
What I'm looking for
I am a human resources professional with hands-on experience in payroll processing, employee relations, and benefits administration across university and private-sector settings. I have processed weekly and bi-weekly payroll for multi-state operations, handled time-sensitive unemployment and verification documentation, and administered disability, paid family leave, and workers' compensation inquiries.
I have served as a frontline HR/Payroll Shared Services Specialist for a large university population, supporting 27,000 employees, managing high-volume casework, and providing Spanish-English translation to ensure clear employee communication. I also led mentoring and teaching programs—welcoming over 500 scholars, supervising 25+ ambassadors, creating lesson plans, and training new mentors in best practices.
I bring confidentiality, strong communication, and organizational skills to HR roles, plus technical familiarity with Microsoft Outlook, Excel, PowerPoint, and basic video/audio editing tools. I seek opportunities where I can continue improving HR operations, support diverse communities, and contribute to employee-focused programs.
