Employment Type: Full-time, In-Office

Compensation: Top of market base salary + equity in a fast-growing company

Steadily is hiring a People Operations Manager to own and lead the internal people function at Steadily. This is a high-impact role for someone who can operate independently, build scalable systems, and confidently support a fast-growing business without requiring a lot of oversight or structure already in place.

This is not a traditional HR coordinator or support role. You will be the primary owner of day-to-day People Operations and will work closely with leadership to keep the company organized, compliant, and operating smoothly as we scale.

We move quickly, hire aggressively, and expect a high level of ownership. The right person is operationally sharp, highly resourceful, calm under pressure, and capable of balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution.

You’ll report directly to the Director of Talent and partner closely with the Chief Operating Officer and company leadership across every department.

Own the People Operations function – Run the day-to-day HR side of the business; employee relations, performance support, compliance, leave administration, accommodations, documentation, investigations, and employee lifecycle management.

Partner with leadership – Work closely with managers and executives to navigate employee situations, improve accountability, and help teams operate well as the company grows. Help maintain a high-performance culture where strong people enjoy working hard together.

Build scalable processes – Create structure where needed. Improve onboarding, workflows, documentation, policies, and internal processes so the company can scale without becoming chaotic.

Own benefits administration - Help employees get enrolled, answer questions, coordinate open enrollment, and support renewals with brokers and vendors.

Be the internal IT first line - Set up laptops, troubleshoot common issues, coordinate vendors when needed, and keep people productive.

Manage licensing and renewals - Own licensing for team members who need it. Build systems to track renewals, continuing education, and deadlines so nothing slips.

Run the office well - Keep the office stocked, organized, and functioning. Snacks, supplies, vendor coordination, catering, furniture, general upkeep; all the details that make the office work.

Support leadership - Be a trusted operator for founders and leaders. Spot issues early, keep things moving, and help create order.

Help scale the culture - Be a culture carrier. Help create a workplace where strong people enjoy showing up, working hard, and winning together.

Strong HR / People Ops experience – 5+ years in HR, People Operations, HRBP, or similar roles. Ideally in a fast-growing company where you had to move quickly and wear multiple hats.

High ownership – You can run the HR function with minimal oversight. You’re comfortable making judgment calls, solving problems, and building processes from scratch. You notice what needs attention and take care of it.

Operationally sharp – Highly organized, detail-oriented, and good at managing competing priorities. You handle sensitive situations with professionalism, maturity, and discretion.

Tech savvy - You’re highly comfortable with computers, software, and systems. Setting up laptops and troubleshooting common issues does not intimidate you.

Highly organized - You build systems, stay ahead of deadlines, and keep track of many moving parts without dropping balls.

Low ego, high hustle - You’re excited to join a growing company, work hard, and grow quickly with it.
