  • Manage reports and other HR-related documentation
  • Provide excellent customer service

Here’s what we're looking for:

  • HR experience as a People Operations Specialist  and/or HR Generalist across various industries and scales.
  • Excellent communication skills, capable of clearly and concisely conveying information to employees at all levels.
  • Proficiency with HR software, Google Suite, and modern productivity tools (Slack, Asana, Zoom, etc.)
  • Ability to manage multiple stakeholders and competing priorities, demonstrating urgency and adaptability to changing business needs.
  • Significant experience with workforce analytics, using data and reporting to drive strategic decisions.

Our cash compensation amount for this role is between $94,000 - $110,000/year in Denver and between $114,000 - $130,000/year for New York/San Francisco. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate location, experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.


Gusto has physical office spaces in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role). The same office expectations apply to all Symmetry roles, Gusto's subsidiary, whose physical office is in Scottsdale.

Note: The San Francisco office expectations encompass both the San Francisco and San Jose metro areas. 

When approved to work from a location other than a Gusto office, a secure, reliable, and consistent internet connection is required.
