People Operations Manager

Talent to Team is seeking a People Ops Manager to provide comprehensive fractional support, directly and indirectly, to clients in a wide range of industries. We are a small but growing team excited to bring on our next rockstar!

Who We Are:

The world of work is undergoing a massive transformation, and having a strong People Strategy, Employee Experience, and a set of modern HR practices is crucial to staying competitive. We are a team of experienced and empathetic People Ops & HR leaders who specialize in turning individual talent into high-performing teams.

We are hands-on and can embed ourselves as insourced members of our Client’s team. Think of us as culture chameleons. We work to understand our Clients’ values and create a scalable infrastructure to promote and engrain them in every People Experience, Process, and facet of their company. We bring the People Strategy thinking to the table and then execute.

We specialize in remote-first and hybrid companies who are building the workforces of tomorrow, today. We ourselves are fully remote and understand what it takes to build a functioning, engaged, and successful team in the new world of work.

We love what we do, but it’s not all that we do. We are parents, entrepreneurs, pilots, and outdoor enthusiasts. The Great Resignation was a time of our Great Awakening to needing more out of life than a turn-and-burn culture. We set the number of hours we want to work so when we are working, we can bring the best of ourselves to the table!

If this all resonates with you, we would love to meet you!

We welcome and encourage applications from people with these identities or members of other historically marginalized groups.
