  • Candidates should have a Bachelor's degree in Human Resources or a related field, along with 2+ years of HR Generalist experience, preferably in a multi-site environment.
  • The role requires knowledge of federal and Nebraska employment law, strong communication skills, and proficiency with HRIS/ATS platforms.

  • Applicants must possess a valid driver's license and be willing to travel extensively across Nebraska.

At Frontier Cooperative, we believe agriculture is more than a business, it's a way of life. As an agricultural leader serving Nebraska's farming communities, we provide a comprehensive range of grain, agronomy, feed, and energy products and services. But what sets us apart is how we do it: with integrity, with quality, and with a deep commitment to the communities we're proud to call home. We're looking for people who share those values and want to grow with us.


What you'll do: 

Talent Acquisition

  • Own the full-cycle talent acquisition process — job postings, candidate screening, interviewing, selection, and offer coordination.
  • Coordinate pre-employment steps (background checks, drug screens, onboarding paperwork) to ensure new hires start smoothly and on time.

Employee Relations

  • Serve as a secondary point of contact for managers and employees, providing coverage and continuity when the VP of HR is unavailable.
  • Conduct rotating site visits to build relationships, surface concerns early, and maintain visibility across all supported locations.
  • Ensure consistent application of company policy and compliance with federal and Nebraska employment law across every site.

Payroll Backup

  • Serve as the designated backup payroll administrator, able to accurately run payroll on time when the primary administrator is out.
  • Review timekeeping data, resolve discrepancies, and process new hire, termination, and pay-change entries.
  • Support payroll compliance, including garnishments, tax withholdings, and multi-location wage and hour requirements.


What we are looking for: 

  • Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • 2+ years of HR Generalist experience; multi-site or field HR experience strongly preferred.
  • Working knowledge of federal and Nebraska employment law (wage and hour, EEO, leave laws, etc.).
  • Experience with high-volume or full-cycle recruiting.
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to build trust quickly across locations.
  • Highly organized, with the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-moving environment.
  • Proficiency with HRIS/ATS platforms (BambooHR or similar) and Microsoft Office.
  • Exposure to or hands-on experience with payroll processing; comfortable learning our payroll system as a backup administrator.
  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation; willingness to travel extensively across Nebraska.


Why join us? Full-time employees receive a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your health, finances, and future.

  • Paycheck for life: Cooperative pension plan, plus 401(k) with traditional and Roth options
  • Comprehensive health coverage: Medical, dental, and vision insurance, supplemental plans, and FSA/HSA spending accounts
  • Paid time off: Vacation and sick leave to rest and recharge
  • Uniform & boot allowances: Annual allowances so you're always equipped and ready
  • 360 Wellness Program: Whole-person wellness with real incentives
  • Sign-on & referral bonuses: Get rewarded for joining and for bringing great people with you
