About the role
Classification: Temps partiel
Lieux de travail: Québec/Remote
Yellow Brick Games is hiring a HR Coordinator to join our team of experienced developers working on an exciting new IP. As an HR Coordinator in an indie game studio, you’re not just a paperwork person—you’re the connective tissue that helps hold the team together. You create the conditions for people to do their best work and feel like they belong. In a smaller studio, that means your role is wide-ranging and deeply people-focused.
Yellow Brick Games is based in Quebec City, Canada, and we are open to discussing remote-work situations. We are committed to diversity, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment regardless of national origin, age, disability, religious beliefs, gender identity, sexual orientation, or any other protected status.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Being the First Friendly Face
- You’re the first point of contact for new hires, freelancers, and sometimes even collaborators from outside the studio. You coordinate interviews, guide onboarding, and make sure each person who joins the team feels welcomed, respected, and set up for success—without overwhelming them with formalities.
- Organizing the Important Stuff So Creatives Don’t Have To
- HR platform (we use HRFolks), work anniversaries, benefits, performance review structure, contract tracking—these things have to get done, but they shouldn’t distract artists, designers, and coders from their flow. You make sure it’s all running smoothly behind the scenes and that everyone gets what they need—on time and with clarity.
- Supporting a Healthy Studio Culture
- In a creative environment, people are everything. You help build and maintain a culture that values mental health, feedback, diversity, and trust. That might mean setting up one-on-one check-ins, mediating conflicts with empathy, or helping leadership align on values that feel authentic—not corporate.
- Championing Growth and Development
- Even in a small team, people want to learn, grow, and be recognized. You help identify opportunities for learning (think: workshops, mentorship, game jams) and track performance and feedback in a way that helps people thrive—not just tick boxes.
- Wearing Multiple Hats (It’s Indie Life)
- In an indie studio, you might be helping plan a studio retreat one day, reviewing contracts the next, and then jumping into Slack to help someone clarify vacation policy. Flexibility and problem-solving are your superpowers—you adapt to what the team needs, often in real-time.
In short? You’re a mix of organizer, counselor, operations ninja, and culture-builder. You’re not there to enforce rules—you’re there to work with the leadership team to support the humans making the games. And in an indie studio, where creativity, chaos, and heart often coexist, that makes you absolutely essential in making YBG the special place we believe it can be to others.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 3+ years of relevant experience in people development
- Excellent problem-solving and communication skills
- Self-sufficient and resourceful; able to identify and work within constraints
- Confidentiality; Proven ability to handle sensitive information with discretion
- Experience with any HR software and applicant tracking systems can be beneficial
