@ruthierichard
HR and operations associate who supports onboarding, compliance, and benefits while also driving engaging social media content and analytics.
What I'm looking for
I’m an HR & Operations Associate with experience supporting employees, benefits administration, and the onboarding process. I handle new hire paperwork (including I-9 verification and background checks), maintain organized personnel files, and support audits by keeping accurate records.
Previously, I served as Director of Agent Services at Keller Williams, where I became the go-to person for agent onboarding, weekly orientations, and one-on-one meetings. I maintained the monthly training calendar, helped coordinate market center events to improve retention, and managed the office’s social media accounts.
Earlier in my career, I led teams in retail and client services roles at Sephora and Nordstrom, focusing on customer experience, appointment coordination, and performance against goals. Today, I also work as a freelance Social Media Manager—creating content, managing a content calendar, analyzing performance metrics, and running paid social campaigns to maximize ROI.
