## Job description

### Second Nature | Tel Aviv

We're looking for an HR & Operations Manager to step in for a maternity cover and own the full employee experience and operational heartbeat of our team. At Second Nature, we build conversational AI that transforms corporate training- our platform uses advanced speech processing and generative AI to create immersive, role-play-based learning for sales, customer service, and support teams at leading global organizations. This is a hands-on role where you'll touch every part of the employee lifecycle, from the moment someone accepts an offer to their last day, and everything in between- onboarding, payroll coordination, office management, employee celebrations, and the systems that keep it all running smoothly.

### What You'll Do

### Employee Lifecycle & HR Operations

- Own employee files, documentation, and HR record-keeping from hire to exit

- Administer HR systems and ensure data accuracy across platforms

- Coordinate with external payroll vendors and manage monthly payroll upload processes

- Manage preboarding: employee files, workspace setup, system access, welcome gifts, payroll updates, and required forms.

- Conduct onboarding: welcome new hires, give office tours, explain benefits and HR processes, and set up office and communication access.

- Manage offboarding: handle Jira setup, conduct exit interviews and extract actionable insights, support managers through the transition

### Office & Vendor Management

- Handle day-to-day office operations: supplies, equipment, vendor relationships, and facilities coordination

- Manage corporate credit cards and expense tracking via Mesh

- Coordinate with external vendors for payroll, benefits, and office services

### Employee Experience & Culture

- Own the employee experience: order pizzas, plan and order happy hours, arrange holiday gifts, organize birthday celebrations

- Plan and execute company events within the welfare budget

- Manage employee benefits and perks programs

- Accompany employees through lifecycle moments- birthdays, work anniversaries, births, weddings

### HR Support & Compliance

- Support managers on employment law questions and HR policy matters

- Manage employment contracts and HR documentation

- Produce HR reports and maintain compliance with Israeli employment law

### What You Bring

### Must-haves:

- 3+ years of hands-on experience in HR and/or operations roles

- Deep familiarity with HR operations and the full employee lifecycle- onboarding, offboarding, employee files, documentation

- Experience managing HR systems

- Proven ability to coordinate payroll processes with external vendors

- Office management experience: vendor coordination, supplies, facilities, and day-to-day operations

- Track record of managing employee experience programs- events, perks, celebrations, culture initiatives

- Comfort working with workplace tools like Slack, Jira, and expense management systems

- Knowledge of Israeli employment law and HR compliance

- Fluency in Hebrew and English (written and spoken)

- A detail-oriented, proactive approach with strong organizational skills

- Warmth and care- you genuinely enjoy making people feel welcomed and supported

### Nice-to-haves:

- Experience in a tech or startup environment

- Familiarity with budget management for welfare or benefits programs

- Comfort managing multiple projects and priorities simultaneously

### What We Offer

- A defined-term role (maternity cover), with the potential for a full-time extension based on company needs.

- The chance to shape the employee experience for a team building cutting-edge AI technology

- A collaborative, warm team culture where your work directly affects how people feel at work every day

- Exposure to the full scope of HR and operations in a fast-growing tech company

*Second Nature is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome candidates of all backgrounds and are committed to building an inclusive team.*

**Live in Secondnature’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
