People Operations Coordinator
Teachable’s mission is to empower creators to transform their knowledge into income. Founded in 2014, we’re a venture backed startup with offices in NYC and Durham, NC, and to date we’ve helped tens of thousands of instructors sell a combined $300m+ in courses to 18m students. We believe anyone can teach, and everything is teachable!
We’re growing quickly and looking for a People Operations Coordinator to join our NYC team. As a key member of both our People team and Team Teachable, you’ll lead office operations and planning for team culture engagement activities, and will help us foster a welcoming, collaborative environment.
Responsibilities
- Find creative ways to engage the Teachable team and build community and organizational citizenship. Own budget and lead planning for monthly company-wide events, team activities and volunteering, bring-your-child-to-work events, annual events like summer camp and holiday party, employee recognition, resource groups and more.
- Our office is managed by our coworking space, but you’ll work with our account manager and porter to help ensure our office is organized, functional, and a safe and welcoming space to work. You’ll set up and manage weekly orders and deliveries to the office including weekly lunches, snacks, drinks, and supplies.
- Champion cross-office and remote-team alignment and communication and make sure everyone feels included and part of the team wherever they’re located.
- Build relationships with stakeholders across the organization and stay in touch with both what’s working well and what isn’t.
- Work to improve onboarding, company communication, and other special projects including office space moves and build-outs and special events.
Who you are
- You have around 2 or more years of professional experience in people or office ops or equivalent, and experience planning events and managing budgets and vendors.
- Outstanding communication skills, both written and verbal, and strong interpersonal skills.
- You’re very organized and have the ability to manage multiple projects in flight.
- High integrity and the ability to build and keep trust and confidence.
- Alongside our People team you are comfortable seeking and taking on responsibility in ways big and small, to help build a world-class team.
Nice to have
- Experience on a People team, at a startup, or similar role
