Description

Arcadis is the world's leading company delivering sustainable design, engineering, and consultancy solutions for natural and built assets. We are more than 36,000 people, in over 70 countries, dedicated to improving quality of life. Everyone has an important role to play. With the power of many curious minds, together we can solve the world's most complex challenges and deliver more impact together. Role Description: Arcadis is seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior Project Human Resources Business Partner to support one of the most iconic and consequential infrastructure initiatives in the United States — the Gateway Hudson Tunnel Project (HTP). Unlike a traditional corporate HR role, this position is dedicated specifically to a major client project and will focus on recruiting efforts by partnering with managers to attract, source, and hire top talent, while also overseeing onboarding and orientation on this once-in-a-generation infrastructure effort. NOTE: This is a Project related Senior Human Resources Business Partner role supporting the Gateway Hudson Tunnel Project (HTP). It is not a corporate HR position. We are working in partnership with our JV Partners as part of the MPA Delivery Partner team, selected by the Gateway Development Commission to deliver this transformative project. The HTP is a critical component of the broader Gateway Program — one of the most ambitious and impactful transportation initiatives in the nation — and is designed to strengthen mobility, enhance resiliency, and ensure the long-term reliability of the Northeast Corridor. The project encompasses the construction of a new, two-track rail tunnel beneath the Hudson River, along with the full rehabilitation of the existing 113-year-old North River Tunnel. This vital infrastructure supports more than 200,000 daily passengers via Amtrak and NJ TRANSIT and serves as a backbone for economic activity and connectivity between New York and New Jersey. This is more than just a job — it's a rare opportunity to directly influence the success of a nationally significant infrastructure program. As part of this high-performing, multidisciplinary team, you will be responsible for supporting the people and HR needs of the project team — not corporate headquarters — and ensuring excellence in all human resources functions across the delivery partnership. Role Accountabilities: Serve as a lead full-cycle recruiter, coordinating with hiring managers, sourcing candidates, supporting recruitment efforts by posting job openings, screening resumes, conducting interviews, and facilitating the hiring process, maintaining records. Manage employee onboarding and orientation programs to ensure a smooth transition for new hires into the organization. Assist in the development and implementation of HR policies and procedures to ensure compliance with legal requirements and alignment with company goals. Provide guidance and support to employees and managers on HR-related matters, including performance management, employee relations, and disciplinary actions. Administer employee benefits programs, including enrollment, changes, and inquiries, and serve as the primary point of contact for benefits-related issues. Maintain accurate and up-to-date employee records in the HRIS system and ensure data integrity and confidentiality. Assist in the coordination of employee training and development initiatives to enhance individual and organizational performance. Support HR projects and initiatives, such as employee engagement surveys, diversity and inclusion programs, and wellness initiatives. Attend job fairs and community outreach events Perform all other duties as assigned to cover additional HR responsibilities and support departmental needs Required Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Business, Human Resources, or a related field, or equivalent combination of education and experience. 10+ years experience in full-cycle recruiting, training, employee engagement, onboarding and orientation. Proven experience consulting with managers and leaders across multidisciplinary project teams. Key Skills and Abilities: Proficiency in HRIS systems and Microsoft Office Suite; experience with ATS platforms preferred. Experience developing and implementing HR policies, programs, and procedures. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a data-driven mindset. Ability to handle confidential information with professionalism and discretion. Preferred Qualifications: PHR/SPHR certification desired. Why Arcadis?
