This is not a permanent employed position, and there is no guaranteed minimum number of hours.

If you're looking for:

• A permanent HR position
• Employee benefits
• Guaranteed weekly hours

Please do not apply.

This opportunity is for experienced People and HR professionals who enjoy variety, take ownership and want to join a growing consultancy supporting ambitious organisations across the US and internationally.

Rosie's People is an award-winning HR/People Operations and organisational consultancy supporting founders, leadership teams and growing organisations across the UK and internationally.

We provide strategic People advisory, organisational consulting, operational HR support, leadership and management development, talent solutions and executive recruitment.

As our international client portfolio continues to grow, we are expanding our network of experienced independent HR and People consultants across the United States.

We are particularly interested in consultants who can support clients in and around New York City, Washington DC and San Francisco, although applications from experienced consultants elsewhere in the US are also welcome.

Please submit your resume/CV together with a cover letter explaining why you believe you would be a strong addition to the Rosie's People consultant network.

Within your cover letter, please answer the following six mandatory questions.

Applications that do not answer all six questions will not be considered.

Successful applicants may be added to Rosie's People's approved consultant network and considered for client assignments as requirements arise.

Assignments may include:

• Day-to-day and strategic HR support
• Employee relations and manager advisory
• Performance management
• HR policies, processes and compliance
• Organisational design and change
• M&A and post-acquisition integration
• Workforce planning and restructuring
• Recruitment, onboarding and offboarding
• HR audits and People-practice reviews
• Supporting international and distributed workforces
• Manager capability and organisational-development projects

Whilst you will manage your day-to-day workload independently, assignments will form part of Rosie's People's managed consultancy service and operate within agreed client scope, reporting, escalation and quality standards.

We're looking for people who:

• Have at least five years' substantive HR/People experience
• Have strong practical knowledge of employment requirements applicable to the jurisdictions they support
• Can confidently manage employee relations matters
• Communicate credibly with managers, executives and founders
• Are commercially minded, pragmatic and solutions-focused
• Can enter a client environment and add value quickly
• Understand the difference between independence and disappearing
• Know when to take ownership, collaborate and escalate
• Are comfortable with modern HR systems, AI tools and collaborative technology
• Can represent the Rosie's People brand professionally

Relevant SHRM, HRCI or equivalent professional qualifications are desirable, although substantial practical experience will also be considered.

Joining the Rosie's People consultant network does not constitute an offer or guarantee of work.

Client assignments are offered according to business requirements, expertise, location, availability, cultural/client fit and agreed commercial terms.

Where you are considered for a specific assignment, the scope, expected hours or days, duration, rate, travel requirements and other relevant terms will be agreed before any work commences.

Rosie's People is a remote-first, inclusive and equal opportunities consultancy. If you require reasonable adjustments during our selection process, please include a Reasonable Adjustment Request section within your cover letter.
