HR Coordinator

Founded in 1997, STAR Physical Therapy has grown from a single clinic to over 70 locations across Tennessee, Arkansas, and Missouri. Our mission remains unchanged: To Serve. While we have grown, one thing that has not changed is our commitment to our patients, communities, and employees.

 We are committed to:

• Delivering industry-leading physical therapy, sports medicine, and industrial rehabilitation care
• Developing "Great Mechanics Of The Human Body" through our top-notch clinical education program
• Supporting clinicians with comprehensive mentorship and professional development opportunities

Our Mission:

At STAR Physical Therapy, we exist to serve. We strive to make a difference in the health and well-being of our patients through clinical excellence and personalized care. Through servant leadership and intentional relationships, we commit to creating a family culture where we use our time, talents, and resources to care for our patients, our communities, and one another.

STAR Physical Therapy is seeking a motivated, detail-oriented, and forward-thinking individual to join our team as a Full-Time HR Coordinator supporting our Franklin, TN Business Office. We are looking for someone who not only thrives in administrative and coordination functions, but also has the desire to grow and develop within the Human Resources field.

This is a hybrid position that offers the ability to work remotely at least two days per week, with in-person work at our Franklin Business Office required for team meetings, new hire orientations, and other business needs as determined by the organization. The specific hybrid schedule and in-office expectations will be discussed during the interview process. The successful candidate must be comfortable working in a shared office environment and collaborating with team members in person.
