HR Performance Specialist/Admin Assistant (Metrics & Evaluations)
About The Position
Emerging Tech is a growing organization focused on innovation, accountability, and operational excellence. As we scale, we are building a more structured, data-driven approach to employee performance and evaluation. We are seeking a true operational backbone for our headquarters office: an Administrative Assistant / HR & Compliance Specialist with a minimum of 2 years of full-time experience who is highly detail-oriented, compliance-minded at all times, and comfortable quality-checking the work of others. This role blends HR and talent acquisition with accounting, payroll, and bookkeeping support, plus light marketing and general administrative coordination. The ideal candidate treats accuracy and follow-through as non-negotiable, catches errors before they become problems, and is equally comfortable reconciling an invoice, coordinating a background check, or reviewing a colleague's report for quality before it goes out the door.
