The Opportunity
This is a great opportunity for someone who loves bringing order, insight, and momentum to HR. You’ll be at the center of how we run our people operations e.g. owning HR data and systems, keeping policies and compliance tight as we grow, supporting benefits and payroll workflows, and partnering closely with finance, data, and the wider team. You’re comfortable owning your work end‑to‑end, tech‑savvy and curious about automation and AI, and happy to roll up your sleeves. You work well independently but value collaboration, communicate clearly in English, and bring strong judgment around compliance (US experience is a plus, but not required). Experience with BambooHR & Power BI (or other dashboarding tools) is a bonus. What We’re Looking For
You’re naturally detail‑oriented and genuinely care about getting things right
You’re organized and dependable, and you follow things through to the finish
You’re comfortable with tech and curious about better ways of working, especially around data, automation, and AI
You don’t wait for problems to land on your desk. You see a problem; you fix a problem.
You like owning your work and have experience in fast‑moving or growing environments
You’re open to jumping into different HR topics as new needs and projects come up
You work well independently in a remote setup, but collaborate thoughtfully and communicate clearly
Experience with BambooHR, Power BI, or dashboards is great, but not required
Any compliance or regulatory experience is valuable; US experience is a bonus, not a must
You have very strong English communication skills. Both written and verbal!
And most importantly: you bring good judgment, positive energy, and want to work collaboratively as part of a great People Team.
What Success Looks Like
People data is clean, reliable, and actually used, you’ve made it easy for the business to trust it and act on it
HR operations just work, things run smoothly, and when something comes up, you’re already on it
Compliance is never a scramble: policies, contracts, and processes stay current and in good shape as we grow
Benefits, payroll inputs, and core HR workflows happen seamlessly, without friction for the team
Our HR systems (especially BambooHR) are in great shape, well-managed, connected, and genuinely useful
You’re always looking for ways to make things better, simplifying processes, introducing automation, and turning good ideas into real improvements
Team members know they can count on you; you’re responsive, clear, and helpful when it matters
Working with you feels easy. Finance, Payroll, and Data teams see you as a reliable, thoughtful partner
As we grow, our people operations keep up. They are structured, scalable, and maintain quality
Requirements
Relevant experience in People Operations / HR Operations with ownership of core processes
Strong HR systems and data management experience (HRIS required; reporting/dashboarding creation is a plus)
Solid understanding of HR compliance and operational risk (US exposure is a plus)
Experience working cross-functionally with Finance, Payroll, or similar stakeholders
Proven ability to improve processes and operate effectively in fast-paced, evolving environments
Strong English communication skills (written and verbal)
At Sterlington, we believe that world-class talent has no boundaries. We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive environment where unique perspectives are valued and every individual has the opportunity to thrive. We encourage all qualified candidates to apply.
