POSTED ON 9/30/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 10/29/2025

Join a dynamic Human Resources team at a leading research institution and gain hands-on experience across multiple HR functions. This role is perfect for someone with strong administrative or human resource experience who is looking to launch or grow their career in HR.

As an HR Assistant, you’ll support a wide range of areas including staffing, benefits, employee relations, and classification. You’ll process personnel actions, maintain electronic personnel files, assist with recruitment and onboarding, help with visa documentation, and support employee programs such as awards, summer hires, and volunteers. You’ll also play a key role in employee orientation and provide guidance on HR procedures, policies, and benefits.

We’re looking for a detail-oriented, organized, and collaborative professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment. If you don't have true HR experience but do have administrative experience and the passion to break into HR, this is an excellent opportunity to gain valuable exposure to both Federal and Trust Fund HR systems while working with a supportive team.
