HR + Recruiting Temp (Summer 2026)

About Us

Anthos|Home is a nonprofit startup focused on creating a new way home for New Yorkers with housing vouchers. We streamline the apartment search, approval, and move-in process using technology to move people into stable housing faster. We believe every person deserves a place to blossom, and we’re building the tools, systems, and teams to make that possible.

Our Culture

At Anthos|Home, urgency drives our work because every day in shelter matters. We are focused on helping people move into stable housing as quickly as possible and continuously improving how we get there.

We are looking for team members who are highly data-oriented, tech-savvy, and comfortable learning new systems. Strong candidates value accuracy, use data to inform decisions, and actively improve how information is tracked and shared.

We value people who are thoughtful, adaptable, and detail-oriented, and who follow through, communicate openly, and take ownership of their work. How effectively we use data and technology directly impacts how quickly people get home.

The Role

The Human Resources + Recruiting Temp will join Anthos|Home's Human Resources team for the summer to support an active hiring season. This role has a dual reporting structure, reporting to the Human Resources Temporary Consultant while also receiving day-to-day direction and task delegation from the Human Resources Support Specialist, who oversees the full hiring process. The Human Resources + Recruiting Temp will play a hands-on part in the full recruiting cycle, from coordinating candidate communications to conducting pre-screening calls and supporting hiring managers across the organization. In addition to recruiting support, this role may take on additional HR and operations tasks as organizational needs arise. This is a part-time role, 20 hours per week.

You will gain direct experience in recruiting coordination, candidate assessment, and cross-functional team communication in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment.

We’re looking for someone who is organized, communicative, and comfortable managing multiple open roles simultaneously. You should be the kind of person who takes ownership of your tasks, asks questions when something is unclear, and cares deeply about representing an organization with integrity and warmth.
