HR/Recruitment
Do you love being the person who keeps everything running — hiring great people, solving the why won't this printer work mystery, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks? We're looking for a proactive, detail-loving Operations & HR Coordinator to join our small-but-mighty Scientific Adventures for Girls (SAfG) team. If you thrive on variety, love a good checklist, and want your work to directly support girls discovering a love of STEM, you're in the right place.
(No two days look the same in this role!)
The Operations & HR Coordinator position is part-time, hourly, non-exempt. This role reports directly to the Director of Operations and plays a central part in recruitment, HR, office support, and day-to-day operations across our organization.
COMMITMENT:- 25 - 28 hrs / week
- Monday - Friday; specific days and hours to be finalized
- Required in the office 3 days per week and 1 day remote (hybrid schedule)
- Based out of our Berkeley office, with occasional local errands (e.g., PO Box runs)
- Regular Position:
Job security as a regular employee, with room to learn and grow in your role. - Competitive Salary: $24.00 - $29.00 per hour (depending on experience)
- Meaningful Work:
Your organization and follow-through directly power a mission that gets girls excited about STEM. - Variety & Growth:
Recruitment one hour, IT troubleshooting the next, planning a team celebration after that — this role never gets stale. - Perks and Benefits:
We value our team and offer a range of benefits including health, dental, vision, professional development, and more. - Team Culture:
We're a small, supportive, collaborative team that loves to have fun and celebrate together.
As our Operations & HR Coordinator, you'll be the right hand to our Director of Operations and a go-to resource for the whole team. Your role includes:
- Supporting in Finance, HR, IT, Office and Operations
- Leading the front end of recruitment: posting open roles, screening applications, scheduling interviews, and conducting first-round candidate interviews.
- Drafting offer letters and job description agreements from established templates, and keeping recruitment and HR documents current and easy to find.
- Supporting to onboard new hires smoothly and HR ongoing work.
- Being the first person staff turn to — for a computer glitch, a jammed copier, or a where do I find... question.
- Keeping the office running behind the scenes: supplies, vendors, the PO Box, and the countless small things that make a workplace function.
- Renaming and organizing vendor receipts and supporting general expense documentation (no payroll or retirement account work involved).
- Planning and leading fun team-building activities and sending out our weekly staff email.
- Spotting opportunities to make our systems and processes more efficient — and speaking up about them.
A qualified candidate will possess a combination of the following education and/or equivalent experience:
- 2-4 years of experience in office administration, human resources, recruitment, or operations, or a related field.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
- Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and follow-through.
- Comfort troubleshooting basic technology issues (computers, printers, copiers) and knowing when to elevate.
- A proactive mindset — someone who anticipates needs and manages up effectively.
- Flexibility and the ability to pivot quickly as priorities shift.
- Comfort working in a small office where everyone wears many hats.
- Proficiency with HR Platforms, CRM Databases, Asana and Google Workspace.
Nonprofit experience is a plus, but not required.
