A growing company - a subsidiary of a large, household brand - is adding a  Spanish-speaking investigator  to their expanding legal team. This role will report to a senior investigator (placed by RH as well) and the AGC/director of litigation. This investigator will be responsible for working with HR and legal departments, conducting investigations related to employee relations: harassment, discrimination, etc. This is not an HR Generalist role. The company wants to hire someone whose work has focused on employee relations investigations.

Preference will be given to candidates local to Southern California. Candidates with plans for law school in the next 3 years need not apply.

Responsibilities of Role:

o reviewing complaints and corresponding docs (HR files, email correspondence, texts, employment records) and weeding through evidence

o interviewing witnesses (in various time zones - must be able to work odd hours occasionally)

o identifying trends within complaints

o partnering with HR to manage complaint files, building strong relationships with them

o drafting professional reports about incidents and findings

o note: this role does not require interpreting statutes/recommending discipline

· Software: EthicsPoint by Navex - would be a huge plus if someone has this!

Pay is contingent upon experience with the duties above.

Details of Role:

· Hours: Flexible, this person will work with people on east and west coasts and schedules may change week by week or day by day, but not much overtime is expected.

o Someone who has strong, professional, courteous communication skills (concise, factual, cut-and-dry, friendly but not fluffy)

o Someone with a strong sense of confidentiality and discretion

o Someone familiar with how to conduct an investigation (complaint handling, report writing)

Perks of Company:

· I placed this investigator’s boss, who is amazing at what she does, plus 2 jr. paralegals at here last year. They are all are doing fantastic. Everyone is given a ton of autonomy in their roles.

· Resources of a big company with the benefits of a smaller company (autonomy, not much bureaucracy, autonomy).

· Lots of ownership and growth. For someone who is a go-getter, this is a great place to be!

· Free gym membership (you get 9 options of local gyms!).

· Cell phone and laptop provided by company (for company work, even though it’s 100% in office)

· "We are very proud of the teams we are building. The culture is a thing I take very seriously!” - AGC

· Company is rolling out some aggressive ESG goals (100% landfill waste elimination by 2030!).

• Fluency in Spanish, with the ability to conduct interviews effectively.

• At least one year of experience in investigations, legal, or HR-related roles. Please do not apply if you are a private investigator, KYL/AML investigator, or law enforcement investigator. This is an employee relations role .
