About the Role:

We are seeking an enthusiastic Administrative/Executive Assistant to join our dynamic team on a part time basis. This role offers a unique opportunity to be mentored in the HR and business fields, providing a solid foundation for your career while ensuring you have a great time doing it. Our company culture is truly second to none; we laugh all day and love celebrating our wins together.

As the VP of Partnerships (covering business development, client relations, business growth, and HR) at Purple Cow Recruiting, a woman-owned boutique staffing firm, I am looking for someone who thrives in a start-up environment. If you love variety and excitement in your workday, this position is perfect for you. The role offers a flexible schedule with the ability to work 90% remotely.

Preferred Location: We prefer candidates based in the South Fort Worth area, but we can accommodate day trips to Waco/Hillsboro if necessary. If you are outside the DFW/Waco area, please do not apply as we do not want to waste your time.

Key Qualities:

• Self-motivated and enjoys being part of a fun, hardworking team
• Resourceful and capable of thriving in sometimes vague environments
• Warm, communicative, and fun
• Ability to travel occasionally (5% of the time, 2-3 trips a year)

Success Factors:

• High attention to detail and organization
• Excellent communication skills with all levels of staff, clients, and colleagues. While primarily internal, the position involves some external communication for scheduling purposes.
• Proficiency in scheduling across various time zones

About Purple Cow Recruiting:

Founded in 2016 by our CEO, Fiona Rintoul, Purple Cow Recruiting is a white-glove search firm operating in the healthcare, oil & gas, technology, and defense industries. Fiona, originally from the British Isles, has worked all over Europe before becoming a US citizen in 2019. She relaunched Purple Cow in early 2024, earning WBE and WOSB distinctions and securing nearly $4M in partnerships within three months.

I head the healthcare division, leveraging my 10-year career in healthcare recruitment. With deep roots in People Ops/HR, I have a wealth of knowledge to share with someone eager to learn and grow with our incredible team. We operate with a no-frills approach, and there has never been a case of the "Sunday Scaries" at PCR.

Responsibilities:

• Handling administrative tasks such as creating HRIS/Microsoft accounts and writing contracting agreements
• Booking interviews and requesting updates on candidates in process with our clients
• Assisting with revenue data and monitoring the candidate submission process
• Serving as a liaison between the recruitment team and clients, managing high email traffic with detailed documentation
• Keeping track of candidates in credentialing/notice periods to ensure smooth transitions for our clients

Flexibility and Team Dynamics: At PCR, flexibility is key. While I work hard, I don't expect the same from everyone else. If you have 20-25 hours a week to spare and want to earn some extra money, this role is perfect for you. Most of your time will be remote, with occasional meet-ups every couple of weeks to collaborate in person. As I pivot towards new business growth, your extra eyes and hands will be invaluable.

How to Apply: If this opportunity excites you, send me a brief write-up of your skills and a fun fact about yourself. Share your favorite book, movie, or band, and whether you're Team Green or Team Black. Extra points if you love TikTok or 2000s alt-rock as much as we do.
