Charm Offensive: Your emails, posts, and messages are so friendly that people often confuse you with a Care Bear. You’re awesome at phone calls – confident, personable, and easy going. And you’re more organized than Martha Stewart’s spice rack.
If that sounds like you AND you love a fun, collaborative workday where you get to help gazillions of people transform their lives; let’s talk!
AlgaeCal is looking for an Admin Assistant (HR) to bring their awesomeness to our fun-loving People & Culture team.
Small print here ⇒ Every year our dynamic company receives applications, resumes, and cover letters from some amazing people – and we need YOU to help us find the very best among them.
Still here? Okay then…
This job will give you ALL the feels:
At AlgaeCal, we’re driven by a single idea. To end the fear of bone loss. In the United States, an estimated 54 million people have low bone density.
The good news? AlgaeCal has the world’s only clinically-backed natural solution to this problem. We give hope to everyone worried about bone loss. If that excites you, you’ll find no better place to continue your career than at AlgaeCal.
You’ll love it here:
- You’ll be working with a great team. The People & Culture team at AlgaeCal have been there, done that, and got the t-shirt. They’ve created more magical hiring experiences than Disney. They sent more friendly emails than the Mdme Charming School Of Etiquette. They’ve spent more time on the phone than a pair of lovesick teenagers. And the best part? They’re friendly, funny, and easy to work with.
- You’ll use your powers for good. This isn’t one of those jobs that crush your soul with mindless tasks. On the contrary! You’ll be finding top talent to help spread a powerful message – bone loss is beatable.
- You won’t be micromanaged. We’ll give you a simple set of KPIs with crystal clear expectations.
- We don’t have mattresses at the office (Seriously Elon, what’s up with that?!?). You’ll be relieved to know this isn’t one of those awful jobs that expects you to work ridiculously long hours and frowns upon family time. We’re not like that! We enjoy our life, and we want you to enjoy yours too.
This job might be for you if you’ve got…
- A resume that wows us. We expect you’ll have proven yourself as a top-notch admin assistant in a recruitment environment. You’ve got experience that includes screening resumes, analyzing cover letters, and scheduling phone interviews.
- An in-depth knowledge of spreadsheets, and ATS.
- Brilliant writing chops. You can write emails that create a good first impression for prospective new hires.
- The knowhow to support onboarding, off-boarding, internal communications, and employee engagement activities.
- Super-sleuth skills. You’ve got a knack for identifying the top candidates from a mountain of cover letters.
- A background that demonstrates experience in recruitment.
- Next level time management skills. In fact, you’re so good at managing time you should probably be applying for a job on Gallifrey.
If you’re reading this and thinking, “Wow, that sounds exactly like me!” We would love to hear from you. If it doesn’t, no worries! We’re only seeking candidates who will immediately light up this role.
What Will You Earn?
Let’s agree on salary and vacation once we know what you offer, but our goal is to pay above the market rate for your unique skills.
Other Goodies
- Annual team trip (most recently, Los Cabos, Mexico!) which you are eligible for after one year of employment. This amounts to another week of paid vacation, plus we cover hotel, food, flights and entertainment.
- A generous health benefits package
- Monthly team events and activities
- Flexible Stat Holidays with the option to bank days for later use
- Weekly team lunches
- Casual dress code
