About Us

We’re scaling rapidly and expanding our operational capacity to support growth across our teams and clients. Our mission is to empower people with the tools, expertise, and human-centered AI strategies that unlock opportunity and impact.

Our team of creators, builders, and investors specializes in marketing, technology, artificial intelligence, and business—so people with big ideas can expand their agency and live lives they find meaningful.

We partner with organizations of all sizes to explore, design, and implement AI strategies that are secure, scalable, and human-centered. From advisory and tooling to implementation and education, we meet clients where they are and help them integrate AI in ways that align with their mission and values.

At Human Agency, we believe AI should amplify human potential—not replace it. Our goal is to empower teams to work smarter, move faster, and unlock new possibilities through thoughtful, responsible innovation.

Role Overview

The Administrative Assistant will provide comprehensive administrative, financial, and operational support, working closely with the Finance & Administration Director as your primary point of collaboration. In this role, you’ll assist with bookkeeping, vendor payments, timesheet reviews, invoice preparation, and accounts receivable tracking, while also supporting HR, recruiting, compliance, and other operational workflows.

While your primary focus will be assisting the Finance & Administration Director, you may also provide administrative support to other executives and department directors on an as-needed basis. This role is ideal for someone highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing a variety of tasks across finance, HR, and operations in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

This is an international independent contractor role, open to candidates based in Canada or Mexico to better align with U.S. time zones and operational needs. You will be engaged as an independent contractor and not as an employee of Human Agency. As such, you will be responsible for managing your own taxes, benefits, and compliance with local regulations. This engagement does not create an employer-employee relationship under U.S., Canadian, or Mexican law.
