Job description

Seven Research is a quantitative research and technology company bringing together exceptional people, rigorous systems, and state-of-the-art resources to solve complex problems in global markets. Our systematic approach emphasizes technical rigor, creativity, and long-term performance.
Our people are our core advantage, and as we continue to grow, we are building the operational foundation needed to hire, support, and develop an outstanding team.
About the Role
We are hiring a People Operations Associate to support the day-to-day execution of our people, recruiting, office, and employee experience functions. This is a hands-on, detail-oriented role for someone who is highly organized, proactive, and excited to help build a thoughtful, high-performing workplace.
You will work closely with our operations team to support recruiting coordination, candidate communications, onboarding and offboarding workflows, HR recordkeeping, office operations, vendor coordination, team events, and people-related reporting. You will also help ensure that candidates, employees, visitors, and vendors have a polished, responsive, and professional experience with Seven Research.
This is a strong opportunity for someone who wants broad exposure across HR, recruiting, employee experience, and business operations in a fast-paced environment.
What You'll Do
Recruiting Coordination & Candidate Experience
  • Support recruiting across technical, research, engineering, and business roles.
  • Represent Seven Research at career fairs, recruiting events, and talent initiatives.
  • Coordinate interviews, candidate communications, scheduling, feedback collection, and follow-ups.
  • Maintain accurate candidate pipeline data in the applicant tracking system.
  • Support recruiting-related communications, including outreach materials, social media posts, and event preparation.
Onboarding, Offboarding & HR Operations
  • Support onboarding logistics, including scheduling, documentation, systems access, workspace readiness, and first-day coordination.
  • Coordinate offboarding workflows, including documentation, access removal, equipment collection, and internal checklists.
  • Maintain accurate employee records, trackers, templates, and people operations documentation.
  • Support benefits administration, compliance documentation, policy updates, HR systems maintenance, and routine reporting.
  • Handle confidential employee, candidate, and business information with discretion.
Office Operations & Employee Experience
  • Support the day-to-day operations of the New York office.
  • Manage office supplies, snacks, equipment, mail, meeting room readiness, and general office organization.
  • Coordinate with vendors, building management, service providers, and internal stakeholders.
  • Assist with logistics for internal meetings, team lunches, celebrations, recruiting events, and company programming.
  • Serve as a reliable point of contact for office-related questions, requests, and logistics.
People Data, Systems & Process Support
  • Maintain people, recruiting, onboarding, and office operations trackers.
  • Help prepare basic reports related to recruiting activity, headcount, onboarding, events, and office operations.
  • Support process documentation, checklists, templates, workflow improvements, and data quality across HR, recruiting, and office systems.
Who You Are
You are highly organized, reliable, and detail-oriented. You enjoy creating order, following through, and making sure people have what they need. You are comfortable juggling multiple priorities, communicating clearly, and keeping processes running smoothly.
You are energized by a role that blends people-facing work with operational execution. You are professional, discreet, service-oriented, and proactive enough to notice what needs to be done and take ownership.
What We're Looking For
  • 3+ years of experience in people operations, recruiting coordination, HR, office administration, operations, events, or a related role.
  • Strong organizational skills and excellent attention to detail.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple workflows, deadlines, calendars, and stakeholders.
  • Sound judgment and discretion when handling confidential information.
  • Strong follow-through and ownership from start to finish.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office tools, especially Excel for data analysis and PowerPoint for presentations.
  • Comfort with spreadsheets, trackers, reporting, and structured data.
  • Interest in recruiting, HR operations, employee experience, and workplace operations.
  • Professional, polished, and responsive approach to candidates, employees, vendors, and visitors.
  • Experience with Greenhouse, HR systems, events, office logistics, or campus recruiting is a plus.
Compensation
The expected base salary range for this role is $90,000-$130,000, plus discretionary bonus and benefits. Compensation will be determined based on experience, qualifications, and scope of responsibility.
