Sr. HR Strategic Partner / Consultant (Part-time - Client facing)

Description

First things first…

This position is client facing position working directly with our clients in a fractional model. This is a 100% remote, part-time hourly position with approximately 0–10% travel. Hours will vary week to week and are estimated at 25 hours per week to start and the compensation is estimated to be between $40-48/hour. As we continue to grow, there will be an opportunity for this role to grow into a full-time position in the near future — but it can also remain part-time if that’s what you prefer.

Does working with multiple clients across different industries — and rarely having the same day twice — sound exciting to you? Does getting exposure to every aspect of the employee lifecycle make you giddy inside? Us too… that’s why we started Atomus Partners!

We’re a young, quickly growing company looking for our next Sr. HR Strategic Partner to join the team. Our HR Strategic Partners work directly with small business clients to provide customized, hands-on HR support and strategic guidance. One client may need an extra set of experienced HR hands, while another may partner with us to build their HR function from the ground up.

While this is a part-time role, it does require consistent availability during regular business hours to support client needs, meetings, and time-sensitive HR matters. Because of that, this role is best suited for someone who has flexibility within their daytime schedule and is looking to become an integrated part of the Atomus team. It is not a fit for someone working around another full-time position or independent/another consulting practice.

  • On any given day, you could be creating, enhancing, or executing on any of the below:
  • Strategy for HR functional areas (compliance, benefits, talent management, systems, recruiting, culture)
  • Organizational planning
  • HR Audit(s)
  • Employee handbook and policy development
  • Benefit implementation
  • HRIS implementation & automation
  • Recruiting (job descriptions/posting, sourcing, resume collection & review, pre-screen interviews, scheduling interviews with hiring manager(s), job offer)
  • Employee onboarding & off-boarding
  • Culture programs
  • Employee relations, including investigations, disciplinary actions and coaching
  • Internal company marketing collateral such as culture events, benefits summary documents, onboarding presentations
  • Payroll

Requirements

  • What will make you successful in this role (skills):
  • Excellent communication, written and verbal skills, required.
  • 7+ years of relevant HR experience in a generalist/manager role at a small-mid-sized company ( <300 ee’s).
  • 3+ years of HR experience in a PE/VC backed company and/or start-up, a plus
  • PHR and/or SHRM-CP Certifications, a plus
  • Proven track record of building and improving operational processes and procedures.
  • Solid understanding of HR systems and ability to learn new systems.
  • Thorough knowledge of employment law, compensation best practices, organizational planning and development, and employee relations. Experience with multi-state employment laws, including California employment laws, a plus.
  • Extreme Attention to Detail: Attention to detail is so important in what we do every day. So much, that we want to make sure you read this posting in its entirety. Please include your favorite color when we ask you "Please include any additional information that you feel has not been previously covered."
