About RCR Consulting Group
RCR Consulting Group is a trusted HR advisory firm built on delivering the 'wow factor' in everything we do. We don't simply provide HR services — we become an extension of our clients' leadership teams. Our consultants are strategic partners who anticipate challenges, drive meaningful change, and earn the kind of trust that turns clients into long-term advocates. If you thrive on building relationships, solving complex HR problems, and consistently exceeding expectations, you belong at RCR.

The Opportunity
We are actively seeking a dynamic and experienced HR professional to join our thriving HR Consulting team as a Part-Time HR Consultant. In this role, you will serve as a trusted advisor to a diverse portfolio of clients — providing strategic HR guidance, managing complex projects, and delivering results that make a real impact for both organizations and their people. This is a client-facing, consultative role that requires someone who brings both deep HR expertise and exceptional relationship management skills. You will be expected to bring the level of strategic thinking, professionalism, and genuine care that RCR is known for.

This is a fully remote position working 25-30 hours per week on a Monday-Friday schedule. We are seeking someone looking for permanent part-time employment, committed to RCR with flexibility in their schedule to work additional hours based on business needs. We are not looking for someone seeking part-time employment in addition to other employment.
