Meet Imagine!'s Human Resources Team

 

Jeff Tucker

Director of Human Resources

For most of my career I have worked in not-for-profit organizations.  I came to Imagine! in 2021, drawn to the organization’s mission. I love working in HR, because I get to work with so many dedicated, creative, and talented employees.  I enjoy improving communication, and fostering a positive, inclusive workplace culture where people can bring their “whole selves” to work each day.

Job Duties

  • Collaborate with Directors, Managers, and my team to set HR goals, strategize, and stay focused on our ultimate goal of service to and empowerment of those accepting services.
  • Oversee and support training and staff development, volunteers and students.
  • Policies and procedures that set guidelines for fairness, safety, quality, training and promotions, and work environment – remote work options, flexible hours, etc.
  • Set total compensation – pay and pay increases and benefits such as health, vision, and dental insurance, on-the-job training paid time off (wellbeing, vacation, sick days), EAP, EcoPass, and others.  Ensuring employees know and make the most of these benefits offered.
  • Provide and administer customer service – internal and external customers – a role of each HR team member is “problem solver” – collaborating with supervisors and employees to find options and solutions to challenging situations.

Outside of work, I enjoy get-togethers with family and friends; playing basketball, biking, disc golf; going to music concerts; volunteering with a community organization; my brewing hobby; and reading mostly non-fiction/listening to history podcasts.  My favorite TV viewing is comedy – standup, sitcom, improv.

Outside of work I enjoy time with my kids and husband, playing with my doggies and time with our friends. I love to go boating and travel - the best place I have traveled to is Australia. I even got to hold a Koala and pet a Kangaroo!

Kim Loiselle

HR Generalist

Hello everyone, I'm Kim Loiselle. I have been in non-profit Human Resources for a little over 5 years. I do a little bit of everything in HR, but my primary focus is onboarding new employees, including running new hire orientations and creating initial Dayforce setups for employees. I also work on streamlining procedures, and assist with large-scale employee pay changes and transitions.

Job Duties

  • New Hire Orientation information, and initial employee setups in Dayforce.
  • Dayforce issues, including, but not limited to, troubleshooting pay and assignment issue/hour and timeclock issues.
  • Employee Transitions: transfers, FLSA status changes, cost center changes, & supervisor status changes involving direct reports.
  • HRIS custom reports.
  • Large-scale hiring or employee transitions (Ex: Summer Camp hiring).
  • I also speak finance, IT, payroll, and benefits and provide backup for my HR teammates on their areas of expertise.

I welcome conversations about gardening or fur babies. My hobbies include kayaking, gardening, and wrangling my two corgis.
