Are you an HR professional who likes variety, enjoys a challenge, and is ready and interested in taking on part-time projects?

 

If so, we want to talk to you. We are actively seeking to build our bench with part-time and fractional HR professionals.


Who We Are

At AustinPeopleWorks, we understand and embrace the gig economy. Our belief is that the future of work for many will involve working multiple jobs. Not just because many individuals need or even want to supplement their current incomes but also because working in various types of roles and industries provides variety and a chance to learn something new, meet new people, and make a meaningful difference by bringing experience and wisdom to a new role and company.


We are an Interim & Project HR staffing company. The businesses we support need our help to get the day-to-day HR activities done. There's an increasing demand for the services we provide, which is why our team of HR pros continues to grow in size and as a collective brain trust.


What We Need

We’re looking for experienced HR professionals with a flexible and humble work style who are interested in and comfortable with performing tactical and, yes, the administrative side of HR. It’s where our clients have the most needs – we’re being asked to keep the wheels on the bus and improve HR processes, and even departments, in the process.  


Although we have a few needs from time to time for those wanting to work evenings or weekends, most of our project needs require being available 5+ hours per week during typical business hours.


Skill sets we’re looking for:  HR system administration and migrations; vendor coordination; recruitment support & coordination; employee onboarding & offboarding; payroll and benefit administration; HR compliance & audit; and compensation & HR taxonomy administration.


We really need experienced HR pros reaching out to us who have 3+ years of experience, preferably 5+ years. As we continue to grow, there will be opportunities for HR professionals who are new to the industry. For individuals in this realm who are smart, resourceful, and even a bit scrappy by being resourceful doers and not interested in being delegators, we still want to know you, so feel free to apply. We’ll reach out to when we’re ready to talk with you.
