About Us

We’re a fast-growing, values-driven organization seeking a hands-on, passionate HR & Talent Operations Manager to take ownership of recruiting, onboarding, and internal people operations. We believe in building a strong team from the inside out — and this role is foundational to shaping our future workforce and work culture.

What You’ll Do

You’ll be the go-to for all things people-related — from sourcing the right talent to setting the tone for our internal culture. This is not a siloed or administrative-only HR role. We’re looking for someone who takes initiative, owns outcomes, and thrives in a collaborative environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Full-cycle Recruiting:
  Own hiring from start to finish — job descriptions, sourcing, screening, interviewing, and hiring across all departments.

• Onboarding & Culture:
  Design and implement meaningful onboarding experiences that reflect our values and drive employee buy-in.

• HR Operations:
  Oversee HR compliance, employee records, benefits coordination, and assist in shaping internal policies and procedures.

• People Development:
  Track employee performance, help develop training pathways, and support managers in coaching team members.

• Problem-Solving & Fire-Fighting:
  You’re the calm in the storm — able to handle the occasional “one emergency a day” with clarity and positivity.

The Right Fit Has…

• HR experience, ideally with exposure to recruiting and internal people operations.

• Proven ability to take ownership and follow through — you don’t wait to be told what to do.

• Strong emotional intelligence , intuition about people, and a natural talent for building rapport.

• A positive, proactive attitude — focused on solutions, not blame.

• A track record of creating buy-in and engaging teams around shared goals.

• Experience in growing environments — bonus if you've worked with founders or execs closely.

• A passion for building culture and a belief that HR is more than policies — it's about people.

Why Join Us?

• You’ll work directly with leadership and have the autonomy to build and shape HR from the ground up.

• We move fast, value transparency, and encourage initiative.

• You’ll never be “just HR” here — you’re part of our growth story.
