People Operations Assistant Jobs in Romeoville, IL

BigTime is looking for a full-time People Operations Coordinator to support our Chicago office and partner with our People team. This role blends People Operations coordination with hands-on ownership of the office experience, making it ideal for someone who enjoys both employee-facing work and creating a well-run, welcoming workplace. This is a great opportunity for someone early in their career who is interested in learning more about HR, recruiting, and talent development, while also gaining hands-on experience in office operations.

In this role, you’ll split your time between supporting day-to-day People Operations work and owning the day-to-day experience of our Chicago office. You’ll play a key role in both employee lifecycle processes and ensuring our workplace runs smoothly and efficiently. This is a hybrid role based at our Chicago headquarters.

People Operations Support

• Support new hire IT onboarding and office setup
• Oversee office equipment maintenance and troubleshoot issues
• Maintain a clean, professional, and welcoming office environment
• Assist with space planning, seating arrangements, and office layouts
• Support team-building activities and culture initiatives

Why this role is a great fit:

• Hands-on exposure to HR, recruiting, and talent development
• Opportunity to learn People Operations in a growing SaaS company
• Supportive team environment with room to grow
• Ideal stepping stone into a future People Ops, HR, or Recruiting role

• Strong organizational skills and willingness to learn
• Friendly, professional communication style
