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.

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.

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.

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.

  • Flexible Stat Holidays with the option to bank days for later use
