The Role

Reporting to the CEO, this role supports HR for about 60 employees across multiple locations (about 70%) and provides executive support to the CEO (about 30%). You'll work from the CEO's direction and standards to create and maintain our HR forms, policies, and documentation, using AI and Microsoft 365 as everyday tools.

Training for the first few months will be in Eagle River. Once trained, will move to Anchorage office.

What You'll Do – HR (about 70%)

  • Draft HR forms, policies, SOPs, and job descriptions using AI tools, following company format and standards

  • Document employee matters and gather information for managers, the Director of Operations, and the CEO
  • Coordinate recruiting, onboarding, and offboarding, including seasonal hires, new-hire email, and system access setup

  • Track licenses, certifications, and required training across locations
  • Maintain HR libraries and workflows in Microsoft Teams and SharePoint
  • Support payroll, benefits, and leave administration
  • Run employee surveys and exit interviews, and summarize the results
  • Keep an HR metrics report for the CEO (headcount, turnover, open positions, claims)
  • Maintain the company contact directory and emergency contact lists

What You'll Do – Executive Support (about 30%)

  • Manage the CEO's calendar, meeting scheduling, and travel arrangements
  • Prepare meeting agendas, take notes, and track action items to completion
  • Draft correspondence, reports, and presentations for the CEO using AI and Microsoft 365
  • Maintain a company compliance calendar: business and establishment license renewals, insurance renewals, required filings, and key contract dates
  • Track vendor contracts and renewal dates
  • Draft internal company announcements and employee communications
  • Coordinate company meetings, trainings, and employee recognition events
  • Administrative projects assigned by the CEO, such as document organization and workflow improvement

First-Year Projects

  • Organize approved documents in Microsoft Teams
  • Build manager checklists (onboarding, offboarding, documentation)

  • Standardize incident report and claims forms and filing
  • Document all HR processes as SOPs (onboarding, claims, incident reports, license tracking, hiring requests)
  • Build the company compliance calendar

What You Bring

  • 2–4 years of HR experience
  • Experience supporting an executive (calendar, correspondence, meeting follow-up)
  • Regular, hands-on use of AI tools (Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, or similar) to draft and edit documents
  • Strong Microsoft 365 skills: Teams, SharePoint, Word, Excel, Forms, and Outlook
  • Experience with workers' compensation and insurance claims; Alaska experience a plus
