Part-Time Contract | Potential to Convert to Full-Time

About the Opportunity

We’re looking for an experienced Senior People Operations Generalist to help build and strengthen the People infrastructure needed to support a rapidly scaling organization.

This is not a traditional HR administrative role. You’ll take ownership of critical People Operations processes, Workday systems, employee data, reporting, compliance, and programs, while serving as a trusted escalation point for complex employee matters.

You’ll have the opportunity to identify gaps, build better processes, influence cross-functional partners, and create scalable solutions that directly impact employees and leadership.

This position will begin part-time on a contract basis, with strong potential to convert to full-time based on business needs and performance.

What You’ll Own

  • Develop and execute the roadmap for People data, analytics, and reporting, ensuring strong data integrity and actionable insights for leadership.
  • Build and maintain Workday reporting, dashboards, and People data infrastructure used to support business decisions.
  • Serve as an escalation point for complex employee matters involving benefits, leaves, time off, rotations, and other People programs.
  • Independently navigate sensitive, ambiguous, and high-impact employee situations using sound judgment.
  • Lead cross-functional People Operations initiatives focused on improving and scaling processes, policies, systems, and programs.
  • Ensure compliance with federal, state, and local employment requirements, proactively identifying potential risks.
  • Partner across the organization to improve operational effectiveness and strengthen the employee experience.
  • Act as a team lead on People Operations projects by establishing priorities, coordinating work, and mentoring junior team members without formal reporting authority.
  • Proactively identify operational gaps and drive solutions before they become larger problems.
  • Maintain clear documentation of People processes, system configurations, workflows, and key decisions.

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of progressive People Operations or HR Operations experience, including ownership of programs and processes.
  • Hands-on Workday experience is required, with strong fluency in reporting, data, and system-driven People Operations.
  • Demonstrated experience building or improving People analytics, reporting, and dashboards.
  • Strong understanding of employee lifecycle processes, including benefits, leaves, time off, and related programs.
  • Experience navigating employment compliance requirements and identifying operational risk.
  • Proven ability to lead initiatives and influence stakeholders without formal authority.
  • Strong analytical mindset with the ability to translate People data into meaningful business insights.
  • Excellent judgment when handling confidential, sensitive, or ambiguous employee matters.
  • A proactive ownership mentality—you identify what needs to be improved and drive it forward rather than waiting for direction.

Benefits

Why This Role Stands Out

You’ll join during an important period of growth and have the opportunity to shape how People Operations scales with the business. Rather than inheriting processes and simply maintaining them, you’ll help determine how they should work, where they can improve, and what infrastructure needs to be built next.

For someone who enjoys combining People Operations, Workday, analytics, problem-solving, and cross-functional leadership, this is an opportunity to make a highly visible impact while positioning yourself for potential long-term growth with the organization.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
