Gimme Seaweed is on a mission to fuel better snacking—and we know it all starts with people. We're looking for a hands-on, part-time HR Manager to help us build an outstanding employee experience while supporting our growing team. This role is ideal for a strategic and operational HR professional who thrives in a dynamic, fast-paced environment and wants flexibility.

WHO WE ARE

As pioneers of the seaweed category, Gimme introduced the world’s first line of Certified Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified roasted seaweed snacks in 2012 and has since grown to become the #1 selling, premium, organic seaweed-based snack – but our aspirations reach even further.

Led by founders and visionary food entrepreneurs Annie Chun and Steve Broad, we take great pride and care in creating delicious and convenient snacks inspired by our Korean heritage and believe that seaweed represents a sustainable path forward that nourishes people and the planet.

With our eyes focused on the future, we’re on a mission to increase our impact by winning over a whole new generation of foodies and are assembling a team of talented and driven individuals who are just as excited about the future of seaweed as we are!
