Find & Apply For Human Resources / Labor Relations Specialist Jobs in Silver Spring, Maryland

FYI - For Your Information, Inc. is seeking a motivated, tech-savvy Talent Operations Specialist to join our team. This is a dynamic, hands-on role for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of people, operations, projects, data, AI, and technology. This is not a traditional HR position. The Talent Operations Specialist will support a broad range of initiatives across the organization-from recruiting and employee operations to project coordination, client support, research, data analysis, and emerging technology. The right person will be comfortable shifting priorities, learning new tools quickly, solving problems independently, and taking an assignment from "here's what we need" to a well-executed result. What You'll Do In this role, you will: Support day-to-day talent and HR operations, including recruiting, onboarding, employee communications, workforce initiatives, and special projects. Coordinate projects and initiatives by tracking actions, deadlines, deliverables, dependencies, and follow-up activities. Work directly with internal leaders, employees, candidates, and clients to gather information, coordinate activities, and keep initiatives moving forward. Collect, organize, analyze, and present workforce and operational data to support business decisions. Conduct research, synthesize information, and turn findings into clear recommendations, summaries, or action plans. Leverage AI as an everyday work tool for research, analysis, content development, process improvement, problem-solving, and increased productivity. Explore AI-assisted development and "vibe coding" to rapidly prototype or build lightweight tools, automations, dashboards, workflows, or other solutions that improve how work gets done. Identify opportunities to automate, streamline, or improve processes rather than simply following the way things have always been done. Develop trackers, reports, dashboards, presentations, process documentation, and other tools that help organize, analyze, and communicate information. Jump into new assignments and special projects as business needs evolve. What We're Looking For We are looking for someone who brings a combination of HR knowledge, project coordination skills, business curiosity, data fluency, and a strong aptitude for technology and AI.

An ideal candidate may have:

A bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business, Management, Data Analytics, Information Systems, Communications, or a related field. Approximately 2-5 years of professional experience, ideally including exposure to HR/talent operations and project coordination, PMO support, business operations, or a similar fast-paced environment. Strong organizational and project coordination skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously. Strong proficiency with Excel and comfort working with data, reporting, research, and technology. Hands-on experience using generative AI tools and an interest in continually exploring new ways to use AI to solve business problems and improve productivity. Experience with or interest in AI-assisted development/"vibe coding"-using natural-language prompts and AI coding tools to rapidly create, modify, or prototype applications, automations, workflows, or other practical solutions. Experience with Power BI, data visualization, or dashboard development is a plus. Strong written and verbal communication skills and confidence interacting with employees, leadership, candidates, and clients. Excellent attention to detail and a demonstrated ability to work quickly without sacrificing accuracy. Strong judgment and problem-solving skills, including the ability to recognize an issue, investigate it, and propose a solution. A willingness to take ownership, ask thoughtful questions, experiment with new approaches, and figure things out when there isn't an established playbook. The Person Who Will Thrive Here You may be a great fit if you are the person who naturally says, "I can figure that out." You are curious, resourceful, energetic, and comfortable wearing multiple hats. You like learning new things, working with both people and data, and moving between big-picture projects and detailed execution. You are also someone who sees technology-particularly AI-as a tool for getting things done better and faster. When you encounter a repetitive process or a business problem, your instinct is to ask whether there is a smarter way to approach it. You are willing to experiment, build, test, learn, and refine. You don't need to know everything on day one. We are looking for someone who learns quickly, embraces new technology, takes initiative, and brings a positive, solutions-oriented approach to the work. If you enjoy variety, move with a sense of urgency, and get satisfaction from turning ideas and problems into action, this role offers an opportunity to make an immediate impact.
