Tanja Bendixon

Payroll & Benefits Specialist II

Tanja joined GMRI's Human Resources team in October 2026 as Payroll & Benefits Specialist II. She supports GMRI's mission by taking care of its employees and making sure every staff member gets attentive, reliable service, whether that's a payroll question or help with benefits.

Before joining GMRI, Tanja worked at two other nonprofits. There she handled payroll processing, benefits administration, accounts payable, bank reconciliations, and general accounting support. She holds a B.S. in Business Studies from Southern New Hampshire University.

Outside of work, Tanja loves spending time with family and friends, especially over a good board game. She also enjoys swimming, tennis, hiking, and exploring all that New England has to offer, often with her two dogs, Blitz and Astrid, along for the adventure.
