HR and Operations Specialist

The role

We are looking for an organised, people-first HR and Operations Specialist to run the day-to-day people, culture and operations side of the studio.

You will wear several hats: hiring creatives, running onboarding, coordinating payroll and keeping studio operations smooth. You are the backbone that keeps the creative engine running. Freshers and interns are welcome.

What you will do

• Own recruitment end to end: sourcing, screening, interviewing and onboarding across departments.
• Manage HR operations: attendance, leave, payroll coordination, contracts and employee records.
• Drive engagement and culture, and keep the environment positive and high-performance.
• Handle studio operations: vendors, assets, supplies and inventory.
• Create SOPs, HR policies and operational workflows that scale.
• Work with the founders on manpower planning, performance reviews and training.
• Keep us compliant on basic labour law and documentation, and employee data confidential.

What you will need

• Organised and people-oriented, with strong communication and interpersonal skills.
• Comfort with HR tools, Google Workspace, Sheets, Notion and payroll software.
• Good understanding of HR fundamentals: recruitment, onboarding, the employee lifecycle and operations.
• Ability to multitask, prioritise and handle sensitive information professionally.
• A problem-solving mindset and high attention to detail.
• Preferably your own two-wheeler for occasional vendor visits, with a fuel allowance.
• A degree in HR, Business Administration or a related field is preferred.
