Who We're Looking For

We're hiring a part-time HR Generalist to own core operational and compliance tasks across several client accounts. We are looking for someone who has meticulous attention to detail, excels at using the tools at your disposal to tackle unfamiliar problems, and enjoys a variety of tasks in your day to day work. While you will collaborate with a supportive team, you should be comfortable working independently, and demonstrate initiative, ownership, and responsibility. You'll be expected to own your workflows and flag issues before they become problems.

What You'll Do

The primary focus of this role will be routine HR Maintenance work. This includes:

• Onboarding - execute routine tasks related to drafting letters and compliance documents, supporting benefit enrollment, scheduling meetings, adding new hires to systems, and coordinating with clients' internal team members to complete onboarding tasks.
• Payroll - ensure all work hours, PTO, reimbursements, and other requests are complete, accurate, and final. Communicate with client teams and our internal client manager to finalize and submit payroll. Troubleshoot and fix issues before submission.
• Compliance support - generate documents, issue annual notices, and ensure reports that support ongoing federal and state compliance are completed. Conduct basic research and audits (e.g., employee file audits, handbook reviews).
• Offboarding - support employee termination tasks including drafting offboarding emails, completing federal and state notice requirements, and processing final paychecks.

From time to time, this role will also support the team with other tasks. These include:

• Recruiting support - post new roles, screen resumes, and manage candidate communication & coordination, etc.
• State registrations and insurance - research and collect information on behalf of clients, file and respond to notices, etc.
• Documentation - update and maintain SOPs and compliance calendars for core administrative and compliance tasks for each client account.
• Project management - track tasks and timelines to support client managers, proactively managing up to ensure alignment and drive progress.

What We're Looking For

We're open to a range of backgrounds and experiences, but success in this role might look like:

• Prior experience with HR, office management, or administrative responsibilities
• Proven ability to self-manage and thrive in an environment that requires rapid context switching and daily changes to deadlines and priorities
• Clear, professional communication (written and verbal)
• Organized and detail-oriented with a strong sense of follow-through
• Strong project management skills with proven success managing up
• A flexible, proactive mindset - someone who likes figuring things out
• Comfort working independently in a remote environment
• Curiosity about business and strong ability to grasp how organizations work

Nice to Have (but Not Required):

• Background working in a consultative, B2B environment
• Experience working for small business and/or early-stage companies
• Experience with G-Suite, Notion, or similar tools
• Familiarity with HR systems or PEOs (i.e. Justworks, Gusto, Rippling, etc)
• Previous exposure to employment laws or HR compliance topics

Who This Is Perfect For

• An HR, operations, or administrative professional looking to re-enter or stay in the workforce on a part-time basis
• Someone who wants meaningful work without full-time hours while they pursue personal goals
• Someone who takes pride in doing things the right way, even when no one's watching

Details & Logistics

• 15--30 hours/week to start
• 100% remote, flexible hours
• W-2 or contractor arrangement possible, depending on your preference
• (W-2 only: paid sick leave, pro-rated holiday pay, and 401k with 3% match)
• $40-$50/hour based on experience
