People Operations (HR) Specialist

People Operations Specialist - Part-Time Contract Role at PeopleHive

About Us

At PeopleHive, we're buzzing with excitement about finding our next part-time People Operations Specialist! We're a boutique HR consultancy that helps companies build healthy, thriving workplaces through practical people solutions. Our team is growing, and we need someone special to help keep our operations running smoothly.

The Role in a Nutshell

You'll be the talented professional who makes calendars work to your advantage, keeps inboxes organized, handles invoices with precision, and answers employee questions with the perfect blend of knowledge and personality. Part executive assistant, part HR support, all valuable.

What You'll Be Doing

• Executive Assistant Responsibilities:
• Manage and organize executive email to ensure nothing important gets lost in the digital shuffle
• Master the art of calendar management (including finding those elusive meeting times when everyone is free)
• Schedule appointments with attention to time zones, availability, and the occasional miracle
• Create and send invoices with accuracy and timeliness
• Prepare documents that are both professional and reader-friendly

• HR Support:
• Answer employee questions with the right mix of helpfulness, accuracy, and personality
• Interface with clients professionally while building genuine connections
• Help maintain our HR systems with careful attention to detail
• Assist with onboarding processes that make new hires feel welcome and prepared
• Support other HR initiatives with your organizational prowess and people skills

What Makes You Perfect for This Role

• You genuinely enjoy working with people and solving their problems
• You're more organized than most people think is reasonable
• You can manage multiple priorities without dropping the ball
• Your proactivity is exceptional—you solve problems before others even notice them
• You take accountability seriously, owning both your successes and the occasional misstep
• Your attention to detail catches things others might miss
• You communicate effectively in writing, on the phone, and in person
• You're comfortable with technology and adapt quickly to new systems
• You handle confidential information with absolute discretion
• You approach challenges with resourcefulness and a can-do attitude
• 2-5 years of experience in administrative, executive support, or HR roles

The Benefits of Joining Our Hive

• Flexible, part-time hours (up to 20 hours per week with the potential of increased hours in the future)
• Remote work with occasional in-person gatherings for those in the LA area
• Competitive hourly rate that recognizes your valuable skills
• A supportive team that appreciates good humor and the occasional workplace meme
• Opportunities to learn about HR consulting from industry experts
• The satisfaction of contributing to meaningful work in the HR field

While this role lets you work from your favorite cozy nook most days, we also believe in the magic of in-person connection. We are looking for someone who is based in Southern California who can soak up the sunshine along with the rest of our team (when we're not busy conquering the world from our home offices, of course!).

How to Apply

Send your resume and a brief note explaining why you're the specialist we're looking for to [email protected]. Feel free to share what makes you uniquely qualified for this role!

PeopleHive is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees and contractors.
