Office Coordinator / Recruiting & HR Assistant

Pacifico Energy Group is seeking a tech-savvy, proactive, and highly organized Office Coordinator & Recruiting/HR Assistant to be the welcoming face at our front desk and the engine behind our growing office.

As Pacifico builds out its team, this role is central to both the day-to-day office experience and our hiring momentum. Success calls for a critical thinker with excellent attention to detail, the poise to stay cool under pressure, and the agility to juggle multiple priorities in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. If you thrive on building relationships, welcoming people warmly, sourcing great talent, and delivering service at a moment’s notice, we’d love to meet you. No travel required.

• Help plan and support celebrations, milestone events, team-building activities, and the annual holiday party for the office.

• Support People-team initiatives related to employee engagement, culture, and internal events as needed.

• Collect receipts and manage monthly expense reporting through our expense and accounts payable (AP) tools; ensure timely reimbursements.

• Book and coordinate travel arrangements—flights and hotels—for employees and leadership as needed.

• Serve as point of contact for local vendors and service providers; track contracts and service levels.

• Assist with corporate entity registrations, compliance filings, and document preparation for filings (e.g., CSLB and similar).

• Provide calendaring, document preparation, and ad-hoc project support to the People team.

• Keep HR documentation organized and up to date in SharePoint and Google Drive—managing folder structures, file permissions, and archives.

• Tackle additional office, administrative, or People-team tasks as they arise to keep Pacifico running efficiently.

• 2+ years in office coordination/management, people operations, recruiting support, or a similar administrative role.
