About this position:

We're looking for a Northeastern University co-op student to join Later's People team as our HR Coordinator Co-op, based out of our Boston hub. In this role, you'll support the day-to-day work of the People team, build hands-on experience across the full employee lifecycle (onboarding, employee experience, HR operations, and programs). You’ll also support the day-to-day operations of our Boston office as part of creating a strong in-person employee experience. You'll partner closely with our People Ops, Talent Acquisition, and leadership teams, and you'll get exposure to how a fast-growing tech company runs its HR function in real time. This is a six-month, full-time co-op with regular exposure to senior People leaders.

Please note we will only be considering applications from candidates currently enrolled in Northeastern University's co-op program and located within our Boston, MA hub. This is an in-person role (5 days a week) to support office operations and in-person employee experience.

• Support logistics for new hire onboarding, including pre-boarding communications, equipment coordination, and Day 1 setup for Boston-based hires.
• Partner with IT and People Ops to make sure every new hire has a smooth, well-organized onboarding experience.
• Assist with employee experience programs (recognition, milestones, internal events), including planning, logistics and execution 
• Support engagement survey logistics, including communications, response tracking, and follow-up coordination.

Boston Office Management

• Support day-to-day operations of the Boston office, including supplies, snacks, mail, vendor relationships, and basic facilities needs.
• Assist with planning and executing Boston office events, team gatherings, and on-site experiences for visiting team members and executives.
• Coordinate with building management, security, and vendors to support office operations

Programs & Projects

• Contribute to People team projects across areas such as Learning and Development, AI proficiency, performance, and culture initiatives.
• Help build process documentation, SOPs, and how-to guides that scale beyond your co-op term.

What success looks like:

• Within your first 30 days, you’ve ramped on Later’s People tools and processes, built relationships with key stakeholders, and begun supporting onboarding, coordination, and leading office operations tasks.
• By 90 days, you’re confidently supporting core workflows (e.g., onboarding logistics, scheduling, and office coordination), contributing to People team projects, and helping manage day-to-day operations of the Boston office with guidance, while identifying opportunities to improve processes and the employee experience.
• By the end of your co-op term, you’ve gained hands-on experience across HR operations and employee experience, and contributed documentation or improvements that support the team after you leave. You’ll walk away with practical skills and a clear understanding of how a People team operates.

What you bring:

• Currently enrolled at Northeastern University and eligible for a full-time, six-month co-op term.
• Coursework or interest in Human Resources, Organizational Behavior, Business, Communications, or a related field (or equivalent experience that signals readiness for HR work).

• Comfortable with digital tools (Google Workspace, Slack, project trackers) and quick to pick up new systems like HRIS and ATS platforms.
• Available to work on-site at our Boston office five days per week to support office management responsibilities.
• Prior internship, co-op, or part-time experience in HR, People Operations, office management, or hospitality is a plus.
• Exposure to HRIS, ATS (Greenhouse), or workplace systems is a bonus, not a requirement.
• Interest in how AI tools are being used to scale HR and operations work.
